Hanayashiki's Black Friday 2026

Hanayashiki's First-Ever Black Friday

Asakusa Hanayashiki, Japan's oldest amusement park, will hold its first-ever Black Friday event, "Hanayashiki's Black Friday 2026," from Saturday, November 7 to Friday, November 27, 2026. Hours are 10:00–18:00 (last entry 17:30).

The Highlight: "Hanayashiki Embarrassing Past Shredder"

In this interactive attraction, visitors write down a "past failure" or "something they want to forget" on paper, then pedal a bicycle to generate the electricity that powers a shredder to dispose of it. Participants receive a "Certificate of Embarrassing Past Erasure." It is held at the special space next to Maruhana Ennichi, and participation is free (park admission is separate). A limited-time "Black Panda Car" will also appear in the same area, making it a great photo spot.
