A performance by Maiko and Geiko from different districts, also known as the dance of the capital. Begun to raise spirits after Tokyo was first declared Japan’s capital, it has been held in the Kaburenjo Theater since 1873. There are three performances a day: 12.30pm, 2.20pm and 4.10pm and you can get tickets for either 4,000 yen or 5,000. Unfortunately no tea service will be available in 2019.
