It's a free festival that will appeal to all fans of Japanese pop culture. The Harajuku festival returns to the Parc de Bercy on September 16 and 17, with cosplays, fanzines and a host of manga-related activities.

It's the only free, open-air festival dedicated to manga in Paris. The Harajuku festival returns to the Parc de Bercy on September 16 and 17, 2023. On the program, some fifty exhibitors will present and sell their products, fanzines, illustrations, novels, comics, goodies and, of course, cosplay. Cosplay is the trademark of the Harajuku festival, with a beautiful parade on the bridge crossing the lake in the Parc de Bercy.

It's a not-to-be-missed weekend event for the whole family! If you're a fan of Japanese culture, anime and immersive activities, the Harajuku festival is for you. It's been a not-to-be-missed event since its creation 21 years ago. The precise details of the activities to be discovered during these two days of festivities have not yet been revealed, but they will be soon. For the full list of exhibitors, please visit the festival's X (ex-Twitter) page.
