Date: May 3, 2025
Day: Saturday
This is a free event held on the main street right near Ikebukuro Station. Various food stalls will be set up, and jazz bands will perform on the street corners. We’ve enjoyed freely dancing Lindy Hop in front of these performances many times in the past. On this day, two professional and highly skilled bands will perform. Let’s start dancing at the 2:00 PM session. The first band’s performance ends at 2:45 PM, but we can explore the stalls, eat, drink, shop, and then dance again to the next band’s performance starting at 4:00 PM.
As related information for the day, there’s a concert by Silvan Zingg, a Swiss boogie-woogie and blues piano maestro, at 7:00 PM at the Tokyo Opera City Recital Hall. You can dance there too. If you haven’t made a reservation yet and find it difficult to book through the official website, please contact TSDS. We believe TSDS can arrange your ticket with the event organizer.

Misc.: This event is free and takes place on the street. The performing bands are highly skilled, so I think we can enjoy Lindy Hop.
The schedule for the 2025 Ikebukuro Living Loop, a free outdoor event, is as follows. Highly skilled professional swing bands will perform on the streets in Ikebukuro, so let’s all go dance the Lindy Hop together. The event will also feature food and drink stalls set up along the streets. The bands’ performance times will likely be announced just before each scheduled date. Especially on November 1, 2, and 3, you can dance for three consecutive days, and with various jazz festivals happening on other weekends that month, November is set to be Tokyo’s most exciting swing month for lindyhoppers!
