Paella and Tapas Festival

Spanish cuisine is known for its focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients, often featuring seafood, olive oil, garlic, and spices. In Spanish culture, sharing meals and socializing over food is an important tradition, with tapas being a popular way to sample a variety of dishes. Tokyo’s Hibiya Park hosts the Paella and Tapas Festival, Japan’s largest Spanish food festival, where visitors can sample and vote for the best paella and tapas over the course of three days. Admission to the event is free, but it’s recommended to bring yen for food sampling.
