Akihabara-related events held outside of Akihabara during Golden Week

Although it is not being held in Akihabara, we decided to include it because it is a large anime and manga related event.

The first exhibition of original drawings from "My Hero Academia," the hit series currently being serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump, will be held in Roppongi.
The exhibition is called "My Hero Academia DRAWING SMASH"!

There will be fewer events this Golden Week

In Tokyo, priority measures to prevent the spread of the virus began on April 12, 2021, and perhaps unsurprisingly, there are few events being held during Golden Week.
However, with the long weekend approaching, more people will likely visit Akihabara.
When you do, please take proper precautions against infection and enjoy Akihabara.
