Event information
The Edo Sakaba event is held over a two-day period three times a year: once in spring, usually in April, one in summer, usually in August, and then one during autumn, usually held in November. Tickets grant access to one of the allotted nights for the event. There are two types of tickets available: one or only admission to the event for 7,000 yen, and then one with all-you-can-drink sake for 10,000 yen, with a special, complimentary ochoko (sake cup) included. Note that, due to the nature of the event having alcohol and depicting relatively mature subject matter, the Edo Sakaba is limited to guests who are 20 years of age or older.
Food tickets can be purchased at the event at a rate of 3,000 yen for five. Any unused tickets will be refunded at the end of the event. Food and beverage offerings vary by season, and the number of tickets required depends on the menu at each stall. The official website will have more information on the schedule of events for each night, as well as information on how to reserve and book tickets.
The Toei Eigamura Park is just a 15-minute walk from Hanazono Station and just a five-minute taxi ride from that same station. Many go to the Toei Eigamura Park via bus from central Kyoto as well. For the Edo Sakaba, the standard entrance to the park is not accessible. Instead, the main entrance to the visitor center is where guests will line up and check in. For all-day fun, buying a ticket for both the Toei Eigamura Park during the day and then the Uzamasa Edo Sakaba entails an unforgettable experience.
