Belgium Beer Weekend @Hibiya Park: July 29, 2022


 

I visited Belgium Beer Weekend event held in Hibiya Park, central Tokyo.


The event started in Japan in 2010. It is held in several cities in Japan, including Tokyo, Osaka, Yokohama, Nagoya, Sapporo, Fukuoka and others. The plans were irregular in the last three years because of Covid-19 infections.


Hibiya Park is in the center of Tokyo. It is only one bloc from the Imperial Palace.

It is surrounded by skyscrapers.


Large lawn ground as well as fountains are in the park. (See the top photo)

There are also many trees.

Getting into the event space was strictly restricted to prevent the Covid-19 infection. Only checked persons are allowed to go in.


More than 200 thousand cases are found on July 23 throughout the nation. The number stays over 200 thousand. More than 40 thousand cases were found on July 28 in Tokyo.

No restriction orders have been issued so far in Tokyo. Still, people started to avoid having large-scale gatherings in closed places, such as restaurants and drinking bars.

People at the beer festival site are in the open space. It was not difficult to imagine that some of they were talking about Covid-19.
