This is another combination of running and Halloween.

It’s held at Inage Kaihin Park in Chiba Prefecture.

 

The race is held on October 16 (Sun). There would be a lot of zombies trying to get your life tags. Your mission is to run and protect your life tags.

 

There would be three teams (red, blue and white) and you would compete with others.

 

Location: Inage Kaihin Park

Date: October 16(Sun)

Time: 11:00a.m.to 2:00p.m.

4. Disney Halloween

 

 

If you are Disney fan, don’t miss this Disney Halloween!

It’s taken place until October 31 (Mon).

There is a show called Super Duper Jumpin’ Time, which children would love to see.

You can also try to enjoy Haunted Mansion ‘Holiday Nightmare’ or taking pictures with Disney Characters and decorations.

 

Summary

Tokyo has lots of Halloween events, but those running events are taken place outside Tokyo.

 

If you go to Shibuya scramble crossing area, you would see crazy people!

Some go to Halloween events, while others show off their costumes and performance.

This area is always crowded but it would be packed and hard to move between  October 28(Sat) and 29(Sun).

If you just want to go shopping or not participating in Halloween events, you might want to avoid those dates.

Also don’t forget to bring your garbage back! Don’t throw on the street (whenever there is an event, people leave garbage behind and make city dirty… so please be responsible and considerate).
