Since its inception in 2020, R3 Club Lounge has firmly established itself as a cornerstone in Tokyo’s vibrant nightlife. Stemming from the creators of other Roppongi favorites like R1 Tokyo and R2 Supperclub, R3 Club Lounge consistently hosts top-tier DJs and live hip-hop and R&B artists from both Japan and around the world. This December, they’re introducing an exciting new monthly concept.

The upcoming highlight at R3 is the extravagant dinner show, EXTASIA, on December 14. This monthly dinner show presents a lavish five-course meal served alongside captivating live performances. The culinary journey begins with foie gras terrine and fruits, followed by the delectable lobster short pasta truffle. The experience continues with fresh fish in a champagne sauce with caviar, leading to a mouthwatering grilled wagyu sirloin with a kick of wasabi. The grand finale is a delicate chestnut pannacotta.

Produced by Kenichi Ebina, winner of America’s Got Talent season 8, the variety act show promises a dynamic night. DJs set the mood throughout the evening, hosted by the charismatic drag queen Goma Dango. Magician ATSUSHI ONO dazzles the audience, while comedian GONZO brings laughter. The performance lineup also includes the energetic contact improvisation and balance duo Σώμα (Soma), the captivating burlesque dancer Aya, and the breakdancers Masked Showman.

Tickets are priced at 16,500 yen, inclusive of dinner and one complimentary drink, or 8,800 yen with snacks and a complimentary drink.
