What is "Marunouchi Commons"?

Marunouchi Commons is a community program designed to give people working in Marunouchi time that is "not just about work."
It started as a place where people could gather during breaks or after work, based on their interests and passions, to learn, talk, and cultivate new connections.

Every month, we hold events that are linked to the town's seasons, culture, and Events, as well as community events that allow participants to connect with each other on an ongoing basis.

For both those who work in Marunouchi and those who visit.
We aim to create a space like a "commons" where people can loosely connect, transcending titles and affiliations.

What is "MARUNOUCHI SUMMER FEST"?

This summer Events offers fun for everyone, from children to adults, throughout the entire town.

We will utilize the entire Marunouchi Area, including businesses, shops, and public spaces, to provide opportunities for interaction, learning, and discovery.

Building upon past initiatives such as Bon Odori (traditional Japanese dance) and sprinkling water to create a new summer tradition where workers and their families can rediscover the charm of the town as an extension of their daily lives, and encounter a variety of experiences while exploring the town.
