🎃 Run, Sing & Spook | Halloween Night in Ueno 👻

Costumes • Short Run • Call Me Maybe • Pumpkin-Lit Picnic

This Halloween, let’s do something a little silly together. 🎃👻
We’ll meet at Ueno Station, walk into Ueno Park together and set up our Halloween picnic spot with glowing pumpkin lamps.
Then we’ll head out for a short and super casual costume run around Shinobazu Pond, stop by a konbini for drinks and snacks on our way back, and spend the rest of the evening singing, playing games and enjoying our Halloween picnic together.
And yes… we’re all going to sing “Call Me Maybe.” 😂🎶
You don’t need to be a runner.
You don’t need to be a good singer.
And you definitely don’t need an amazing costume.
Just come ready to have fun and meet some new people!
