Japan Village Summer Festival Returns to Industry City at Japan Village at Industry City
The annual Japan Village Summer Fest will return to Industry City in Sunset Park, Brooklyn bringing together thousands of attendees for a day of authentic Japanese food and drinks, performances and family-friendly activities. Press and general public are invited to experience rich flavors and cultural traditions across Japan Village’s vibrant indoor-outdoor spaces. Festival highlights include Wanko Soba Noodle Eating Challenge, multiple dance contests and a ‍Watermelon Splitting Game.

With no prior experience required, each contest winner will receive a round-trip ticket to Japan — to Kuroishi, Yamaguchi, or Morioka City.

An unparalleled destination for Japanese culture in New York City, the 20,000-square-foot food hall and marketplace was created to foster cross-cultural understanding and create lasting connections by providing a space where people from all walks of life can come together to learn, explore, and celebrate.
