There is a variety of entertainment to be seen in Japan. There are the traditional arts, stage shows, pop shows and classical concerts as well as movies. Visit bars or lounges, the karaoke bars, night clubs and dance clubs. Japan has much to offer when it comes to entertainment.

For the traditional arts, you may want to watch one of these performances: Kabuki, a Japanese form of theater with spectacular costumes. Noh, another form of Japanese drama. Bunraku, a performance carried out not by humans, but by puppets. You can see the people moving the puppets, though; they bring these puppets to life. Traditional dances displayed periodically throughout the year, usually during the cherry blossom season and in the autumn.

For specific schedules and locations, please contact the local tourist office in the area of the performance. You may also find listings in newspapers or other media sources.
