Japan’ s culture goes far beyond its temples, cuisine and clothing. For example, have you ever heard of yokai? Find out what they are all about at this themed bazaar of Japanese spirits.
On October 18 and 19, in preparation for Halloween and Day of the Dead, the yokai edition of the Japanese Bazaar will take place .
It should be noted that yokai are the ghosts, spirits and supernatural creatures of Japanese legends. They can be animals, entities and even objects; they adopt impressive powers and forms.
These beings inhabit horror stories and legends; one of the most popular is Hyakki Yagyō, a conception where yokai appear during summer nights.
On this occasion, the spirits jump from Japanese stories and come to the CDMX. In this Bazaar you will find allusive products such as jewelry, art pieces, edibles and more.
There will also be themed workshops. And don’t hesitate to wear your yokai costume, as you can participate in a contest and catwalk.
The Japanese spirit bazaar is free admission.
Invite your amix, family or partner! Admission is free, but you must register beforehand here. Remember that you can attend from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm.
The event will be held at the Japanese Mexican Association (Fujiyama 144, Las Águilas). Please note that space is limited and you will not be able to bring pets.
