Tokyo Expat Picnic at Kitanomaru Park — Autumn Saturday Social 🍂🌿

🗓 Date: Saturday, November 14, 2026
⏰ Time: 2:30 PM – 5:00 PM
📍 Location: Kitanomaru Park
Meeting Point: Clock Tower near Nippon Budokan
💴 Fee: ¥1,200

Event Details:
Spend Saturday afternoon meeting new people at a relaxed autumn picnic in Kitanomaru Park, one of central Tokyo’s quieter green spaces.
We’ll settle in together for a few hours of conversation, snacks, and an easy afternoon outside as Tokyo moves further into autumn.
There’s no formal networking, structured activity, or pressure to be especially outgoing. You can move between conversations, stay with one group, join a casual game, take a quiet break, or simply enjoy being around other people.

The picnic is open to expats, locals, internationals, travelers, students, remote workers, and anyone interested in making friends in Tokyo.
Most people come to TESC events alone, including many first-timers, so arriving without already knowing anyone is completely normal.
Kitanomaru Park sits beside the Imperial Palace area and is only a short walk from Kudanshita Station, giving us plenty of greenery while still being very central.
