This busy concert schedule continues the rest of the week, with Super Eight back at Nippon Budokan on Thursday and Friday evenings, Leo Ieiri offering powerful vocals at LINE CUBE SHIBUYA on Thursday, and Opeth bringing their legendary blend of hard rock and metal to Ex Theater Roppongi on both Thursday and Friday nights according to Japan Concert Tickets.

Sports history is being made in Tokyo right now as the city hosts the 25th Deaflympics, the international sports competition for deaf and hard-of-hearing athletes.

According to Japan Travel, events are taking place at venues all over the city, so it is a great time to catch elite athleticism and support athletes from around the globe.

Pop culture fans, if you grew up with Tamagotchi or have a soft spot for 90s nostalgia, the Dai Tamagotchi 30th Anniversary Exhibition is open at the Roppongi Museum, celebrating three decades since the digital pet craze first took over the world. Tokyo Weekender reports that the exhibition features rare models, vintage art, and even a limited-edition Tamagotchi collaboration. Just note, timed-entry tickets are required, and they are offering a special merchandise bundle if you apply during the advance application running until November 30th.

Family fun and festive spirit await at Tokyo DisneySea, open from 9 AM to 9 PM every day this week.
