About this event
SummaryThe 3rd Ramen Festival in Nakano 2026 returns to Nakano Shiki no Mori Park, featuring rotating ramen shops and family-friendly activities over seven days.
Highlights
- Table Check Co., Ltd. joins as an official partner to reduce queues and congestion.
- A "snow" attraction is planned for the first day to help with heat mitigation.
- A new "Family Area" offers free ramen for children, evolving the event to include families.
- Special children's ramen is prepared using high-fiber wheat flour called "Amuria".
Details
The festival will run for seven days with a total of 22 participating ramen shops rotating throughout the event. Unlike previous festivals where attendees might only try one shop, this event allows visitors to enjoy different ramen shops throughout the duration, with shops changing in each session. The initiative aims to let children taste real ramen and serves as a reason for families to visit Nakano during the Silver Week holiday. The event is supported by Hyakunen Men Kobo Nakano Daisei and Nisshin Flour. A cool summer festival-like space will be prepared where children can play in the snow while enjoying ramen. The details of the snow attraction are subject to change depending on weather conditions and operational circumstances.
