HARAKADO in Harajuku is hosting the Mexico Festa 2026, a free-entry cultural event celebrating Mexican Independence Day, on September 12 and 13, 2026.
The event takes place at the Tokyu Plaza Harajuku food hall on the 6th floor, offering two days of lively Mexican music, food, and art. Since it draws large crowds on weekends, early arrival is recommended to enjoy the festivities fully.
Highlights include authentic Mexican dishes like tacos, burritos, and dorilocos from MEXICAN GRILL AVOCADO, with popular taco and Corona beer sets available. The event also features live mariachi performances, DJ nights, face painting, colorful Mexican crafts, and a special Corona Sunset Hour on September 13.
About HARAKADO Mexico Festa 2026
This third annual festival, supported by the Mexican Embassy and sponsored by AB InBev Japan (Corona beer), immerses visitors in Mexican culture through music, art, and cuisine. The food hall is decorated with traditional papel picado banners and vibrant Mexican decor, creating a festive atmosphere that transports guests to Latin America.
