Ameyoko Omote-dori "Kaiun Kansha Matsuri (Good Luck Thanks Festival)": Buzzing with a 100-Yen Sale and Prize Drawings — The Autumn 2025 Edition Has Wrapped Up

"Ameyoko Omote-dori Kaiun Kansha Matsuri," a regular event in Ueno's Ameyoko district, was held over two days on Saturday, October 4 and Sunday, October 5. The highlight is the 100-yen sale, a crowd favorite every time. Limited to the first 25 people, it's a generous deal where items priced at 1,000 yen or more can be bought for just 100 yen — and the sight of shoppers lining up before opening with their targets in mind has become a familiar one. On top of that, anyone who spent 1,000 yen or more at a participating shop got a chance to draw a lottery ticket on the spot. With no losing tickets and gorgeous prizes up for grabs, everyone you met was chatting away about "What did you win?" — making for the lively buzz you'd expect from a festival. According to the organizers, the autumn 2025 Kaiun Kansha Matsuri came to a close after a great turnout. It's just a short trip from Asakusa, so why not keep an eye out for news about the next one?
