GEKIROCK EDGE-CRUSHER VOL.188

If you’ve ever been to one of the Rockaholic bars in Tokyo, you know they take music very seriously and collaborations with bands are the norm.

GEKIROCK, Rockaholic’s parent company, frequently hosts “the world’s loudest loudrock party” and this Halloween it’s back for its 188th iteration!

There will be costumes, live music, and DJs at this afternoon event that ends with plenty of time until last train. As you’d expect from GEKIROCK, this Halloween Special includes a ton of musicians from Tokyo’s scene in the DJ lineup!

ANUBIS: CARNIVAL (Vol. 3)

Halloween is on a Thursday this year, so why not continue the party into the weekend with hard techno and hard rock at Anubis? Wear red, yellow, or black to this “ultimate Halloween carnival experience” that includes food, tattoos, and live art!

With diverse Halloween events across the city, there’s plenty to explore. We hope you find something you enjoy and have a great time!
