What this is
Free admission on a Monday night — Beat Kicks is a recurring hip-hop and black music party at CLUB MOVE that pulls together hip-hop, soul, funk, and disco under one roof. Now in its 19th edition, it's a well-worn weeknight ritual for Tokyo's groove-oriented crowd. Simple premise, reliable execution: show up, dance.
Who should go
Night owls who want to dance to classic black music genres without paying a cover. Good for solo dancers and small groups comfortable in a club setting.
Good to know
Entry is free, so no advance tickets are needed — just show up at CLUB MOVE from 20:00. Bring cash for drinks at the bar, as smaller Tokyo clubs often don't accept cards. Arriving within the first hour is advisable to secure space on the dance floor before it fills. CLUB MOVE is a smaller venue, so expect an intimate, close-quarters atmosphere typical of Tokyo's underground club scene. Check CLUB MOVE's social media or website closer to the date to confirm any last-minute changes to the lineup or door policy.
