Time Out says

The annual moon-viewing festival at Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine returns this September with captivating stage performances, beautiful light-ups and tasty local cuisine.

For four days, the Fukagawa Jugoya Festival will celebrate the harvest moon with a packed performance schedule featuring shamisen and biwa performances as well as Balinese gamelan, Argentinian tango and more.

Besides stage shows, you can also expect food stalls selling Fukagawa-meshi, a local rice dish cooked with clams and broth. Visit in the evening to savour this local dish at the beautifully lantern-illuminated shrine, as this makes for the perfect moon-viewing experience in Tokyo.

For the full schedule, check the event website.
