What this is
A special anniversary showcase at one of Harajuku's intimate live music venues, marking the fourth year of the ASOBiMASHOW series with a two-day festival format — this is Day 2. Expect a multi-act bill of Japanese rock and pop acts in a small club setting, the kind of sweaty, close-quarters gig where you're metres from the stage.
Who should go
Japanese indie rock fans and anyone curious about the Tokyo club live scene. Not a tourist-friendly gateway event — no English support should be expected and the lineup will be domestic acts.
Good to know
Tickets for events at Harajuku RUIDO are typically sold through eplus.jp or pia.jp — both accept foreign credit cards, and convenience store pickup at Lawson (combini) is the most reliable option for visitors without a Japanese delivery address. Harajuku RUIDO is a small live house with a capacity of roughly 300–400, almost certainly standing-only with a bar area. Arrive at least 30 minutes before doors open as the space fills quickly for anniversary events. Cash is the safest option for drinks and merchandise at the venue.
