HYPERJAPAN Christmas Market – All you need to know

Experience the best, the tastiest and the weird and wonderful flavours and elements of Japan with HYPERJAPAN – a unique three day event in London’s Olympia…

Ideal for anyone who either doesn’t have the time or budget to hop to Japan for the winter, or those who are missing a taste of the country, HYPERJAPAN is the perfect remedy. There will be a host of free workshops, hands-on experiences, a series of short anime screenings, amazing masterpieces of Japanese traditional craft and the latest trends in street fashion and food. With so much to explore it will feel like you’ve headed to Tokyo itself!

Take part in the Ramen experience where you can try three delicious different broths – Shoyu (Soy), Tonkotsu (Pork), and Paitan (Chicken), where you can decide on your favourite and then enjoy a bowl of your preferred combination of stock with classic toppings. The Sake experience will see you sampling a variation of flavours across over 100 Japanese rice wines as well as liqueurs, craft beers and the hugely popular alcopop Chu-Hi. A range of Namasake which will be shows are unpasteurised “live” sake, flown in specially from over 30 different Japanese brewers. They are extremely rare – even in Japan – and is a truly unique opportunity to see.
