I saw a geisha's dance for the first time. Since it was my first time, there was only a little time before the performance started, but I was able to take pictures with the maiko. The second-floor seats were empty, and it felt like we had the place to ourselves.

狂言ラウンジ大藏基誠 ラウンジパーティと狂言公演を組み合わせた新感覚ライブ 満足度NO.1の人気イベントが復活！＜選べるベルトラ限定プラン＞

The event held in August was aimed at children. 8月開催はお子様向けでした

Reviewed by: hana

I missed it! This time, there was a guest appearance by Sento-kun from Nara. It was a children's event, haha. The food in the lounge and all the performances were aimed at kids, so it felt a bit lacking for me and my mother. The Noh theater inside the hotel was very beautiful, with great facilities and stage. The restrooms were clean and easy to find. It was the middle of summer in Shibuya, but it was very cool, and we were able to spend our time comfortably.

I invited my best friend to experience Kyogen for the first time. I actually wanted to wear a kimono, but it was too hot, so I gave up. I was amazed to find such a pure Japan experience so close to Shibuya Station! The moment I stepped into the Noh theater, I exclaimed, "Wow!"

Since it was a kids' session, there were many explanations for children, but adults also had plenty to learn and laugh about. From the pre-show talk to the main performance and the subsequent quiz and photo session, I enjoyed it all to the fullest. I definitely want to participate again.

初めての狂言体験を…と親友を誘って行きました。
本当は着物を着て行きたかったけど、暑くて断念。渋谷の駅近にこれほど純ジャパン！な場所があるなんて…能楽堂に一歩足を踏み入れた瞬間「わぁー！」と感嘆してしまいました。
forキッズの回だったからか、子供用の解説も多かったのですが、大人も充分学びあり笑いありで、前説から始まり、本編とその後のクイズや撮影会まで、フルに楽しめました。
ぜひまた参加したいです。

2025 Kamogawa Odori Tickets (May 1-24)

Great way to experience geisha arts

Reviewed by: Diana

If you go to Kyoto during the time of year that the geisha houses perform, I would definitely attend one of these shows. The show is short enough that even though we didn’t understand Japanese, it was just a great visual experience (costumes, dance) and opportunity to listen to the music. Pro tip: Spring for the more expensive seating. We got standard, which was in the balcony, and it was super hot up there. Also, this would not be an activity for young kids, they would get bored. I would say older teens and up.

It was a beautiful performance, and definitely an unforgettable experience. While it is all in Japanese, the organizers prepared a handout in English, in which all the parts of the performance were explained. An educated audience (no mobile phones ringing, loud talks, late comings etc.) enhanced the positive experience. Highly recommended!

I was able to watch comfortably from the regular seats, but... 普通席でゆったりと見れましたが・・・。

Reviewed by: 学而第一

It was a weekday, and I observed from the regular seats on the second floor. There were no people in front of me, so I was able to enjoy the performance thoroughly, but it was disappointing that someone was sitting next to me despite there being plenty of empty seats. Additionally, I was surprised by the lack of an explanation booklet for the program, which showed a lack of consideration from the theater.

平日でもあり、2階普通席で見学。前の席に人もいなく、十分に鑑賞出来ましたが、席が十分に空いているにも係わらず、隣に人が座っていたのは残念でした。また、プログラムの説明書も全くなく、劇場側の不親切さには驚きました。

I was interested in the traditional Japanese vaudeville, but I hadn't had the chance to visit a real one, so I participated to get a sense of what it's like. There was an explanation for foreign guests, which allowed me to enjoy it as a first-timer as well. The audience members got on stage to try their hand at traditional Japanese performances and magic, and everyone was quite enthusiastic and having fun. Participating alongside foreign guests was a unique experience that I don't usually get, and it felt refreshing.

寄席には興味があったのですが、本場にお邪魔する機会がなく、どんなものかと予習の意味で参加しました。

I think I'll show it to my acquaintances. Haha!

I wrapped up this year with laughter. 笑いで今年を締めくくりました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望の旅人

I visited the Kyogen Lounge for the first time in a year. The laughter is always stable, and I believe it's a skill that comes from a traditional performing art passed down through the ages. After watching it again after a year, I felt that the performers have scaled up even more, which encouraged me to keep pushing myself (though that might be an exaggeration). Also, the light-hearted talks among the performers after the show were entertaining, and their camaraderie really came through, making me feel warm inside. As a place where you can casually enjoy high-quality traditional performing arts and an extraordinary atmosphere, the Kyogen Lounge is a very precious existence, and I hope it continues for a long time to come.

1年ぶりに狂言ラウンジにお邪魔しました。いつ見ても安定の笑い、時代を超えて受け継がれる伝統芸能のなせる技だと思います。1年ぶりに観させていただき、狂言方のみなさまがさらにスケールアップしており、自分もまだまだ頑張ろうと勇気づけられたりもしました。（大袈裟ですが）。また、演目終了後の、演者さん達のほのぼのトークが面白く、仲良しな感じが伝わってきて気持ちがほっこりしました。質の高い伝統芸能と非日常空間を気軽に楽しめる場として、狂言ラウンジはとても貴重な存在、今後も末永く続いてほしいと思います。

Reviewed by: Cat

Loved Gion Odori experience.
When I purchased the ticket was not sure how will work.You don't have an assigned a seat, so you don't know where they are going to put you, but the site was good, at the top, so I could enjoy the show. It is a pity that no photographs can be taken at any time. I would have liked to keep a graphic memory, even if there could be only in a final part of the show.
Upon arrival you must enter directly through the great door and show the paper of the purchase, inside they have your ticket prepared with your name in an envelope. If you only have the show ticket, you don't have to stand in line, just enter the room and wait for a worker to take you to your seat.

Beautiful way to see Geiko [Geisha]

Reviewed by: Sarah C

This was a lovely performance by the Gion Geiko and Maiko. Keep in mind this isn't a traditional performing art; in Japan Geisha usually "perform" in private settings for very wealthy individuals. You could book a geisha dinner for several hundred dollars per person, or you could go to one of these shows if you are lucky enough to be in town while one of these performances is going on and get a taste of Geisha art in a theater setting. It was a beautiful performance!

［SOLD OUT］Reserved Tickets for 65th Gion Odori Maiko and Geisha Dance in Kyoto

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Deb

When in Kyoto, tourists walk the streets of Gion, in the hope of spotting Maiko and Geisha. Some will try and take photos inconspicuously of them as they walk by, while others will pay over $200 for a dinner in order to see a Maiko perform 1 dance. This experience which is only available each year for about 10 days in November, will give you everything you need when it comes to seeing true geisha. It’s affordable, you get to see many geisha and maiko and they perform 10 acts during the 1 hour show. You can even take a photo with 2 maiko for a small donation.
There is also a tea ceremony you can be apart of if you turn up at 1pm. It’s a rush job and really confusing because of the language barrier, but basically you sit down, put the pink ticket on the table in front of you and they give you something to eat (little glutenous bun with red bean paste inside) and some matcha tea. You also get to keep the little pink plate the treat is served on. According to the kids (who were trying to be funny), you get to keep the plate because it saves on washing. It was a bit of a production line so we just folded up our treat to go, sipped our tea quickly and left to make room for the next groups of people waiting.
Thanks to Veltra, getting our tickets was super easy and our 7 seats were in the front row. Initially we were worried we might be too close but the seats were great.
