Do you feel like someone is watching you from the shadows? Don’t worry—it’s not your imagination. The most fascinating spirits of Japanese folklore have awakened in Mexico City to create an atmosphere full of mystery. If you’re a fan of legends and Asian culture, you’ve got to mark your calendar and head to the Yokai Edition of the Japanese Bazaar.
This event is being held for the second time at the Mexico-Japan Association; it promises to immerse you in a world where traditional creatures come to life.
But it’s not all about scares; here you can treat your taste buds to delicious Japanese cuisine, refresh your wardrobe with unique fashion and accessories, or stock up on that kawaii stationery we all love so much.
There will also be incredible decorative items, collectibles for the geeks among us, and study tools in case you’re learning the language.
Take note of the details: this supernatural gathering will take place on October 17 and 18, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
The spirits’ lair is located at Fujiyama 144, Las Águilas. Be prepared, because parking is limited and tends to fill up quickly, and remember not to bring pets inside to help keep the venue orderly.
Best of all, free admission is guaranteed, as long as you register in advance (you’ll find the link in the bio of @bazarcitojapones).
Put together your best outfit and get ready for an otherworldly experience at the Yokai Edition of the Japanese Bazarcito!
