 Welcome to 'Things to do in Tokyo' on this vibrant Saturday, May 17, 2025 As you step out into the city, you're greeted by a mild spring breeze, perfect weather for exploring all that Tokyo has to offer. The air quality is crisp, and the city is buzzing with excitement, especially with several notable events setting the tone for the day.

First off, let's dive into some of the key events happening today. If you're interested in cultural festivals, the Sanja Matsuri is a must-attend. This ancient festival, which celebrates the founders of Asakusa's Sensoji Temple, is in full swing. Today, you can witness the Chonai Mikoshi Rengo Togyo, where over 100 portable shrines from 44 districts are brought together for purification and a procession behind Sensoji Temple's main hall starting at noon[5].

For those looking for something more contemporary, the Responsible Marché Vol.7 Circularity Edition is taking place, highlighting small businesses and the importance of ethical and social practices. This event is a great way to support local entrepreneurs and learn about sustainable living[1].

If you're in the mood for something more laid-back, the Tokyo Night Market 2025 is an excellent choice. This evening market offers a variety of food, drinks, and shopping, making it a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the city's nightlife[4].

In terms of local news, Tokyo is always evolving. Keep an eye out for new restaurant openings, such as the latest additions in the trendy Shibuya area. Public transit updates include the ongoing improvements to the Tokyo Metro lines, making it even easier to navigate this vast city.

For must-do activities today, consider visiting the famous Tsukiji Outer Market for a fresh sushi breakfast or exploring the beautiful gardens of the Imperial Palace. If you're looking for a hidden gem, the Hanazono Shrine Antique Market is a treasure trove of unique finds and antiques[3].

Here’s a local tip: When navigating Tokyo, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Locals are generally very friendly and willing to assist, even if you don’t speak Japanese. Also, remember to carry a Suica or Pasmo card for easy travel on public transit.

As the day comes to a close, look forward to tomorrow’s exciting events. The May Grand Sumo Tournament continues at the Ryogoku Kokugikan, and the Kioi Rose Week 2025 at the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden is a stunning display of roses in full bloom[4].
