Important DECEMBER 2014 update below
Many of these Goth parties have unfortunately ended, or are happening less frequently. If you’re coming to Japan, I suggest that you visit DecabarZ, the new location of Tokyo Decadance Bar (address 歌舞伎町1-2-13, Shinjuku-ku). For a sense of what goes on at this club, see my report from the old Decadance location. This bar is open almost every day, and attracts a colorful alt crowd.
Here is a recent report about the new Decabar Z and a Suspiria horror themed bar (Cambiare).
Heavy Pop has Harajuku / Jpop / alt parties about once a month. Check out their Facebook for the latest listings, and my blog post about Heavy Pop.
Sodom Tokyo has the occasional party (neo dark goth post punk minimal). Steampunk fans gather at Steam Garden, which happens a few times a year. Again, see their Facebook pages for upcoming events.
Finally, Midnight Mess and Tokyo Dark Castle have the occasional Goth club night, and always have a big event the week before Halloween. See links and coverage of past events further down.
Department H continues to have the craziest fetish party, on the first Saturday of the month. See all my reports about Department H, at Kinema Klub in Uguisidani.
For info about J-rock and Visual Kei bars (where bands hang out), see the info near the bottom of this post.
BELOW are detailed reports on Japan Goth / EBM / Industrial club nights and locations. For the latest event announcements, check my blog and Facebook. Have fun!
† † † SHINJUKU / KABUKI-CHO MAP † † †
(Click on the above map or here to enlarge.)
Kabukicho (East Shinjuku) is known as the red-light district and playground for host clubs. Tokyo’s Goth / Industrial / Alternative nightlife is concentrated in Shinjuku.
Color key to the map above
PURPLE: Goth / Industrial / Alternative / Cyber / EBM / Fetish clubs, parties, bars.
BLUE: Theme restaurants, cheap sushi, and other favorite places to eat. (And convenience stores are great for cheap alcohol and snacks.)
GREEN: Gothic Lolita Punk Rock clothing stores, dollar stores and other places to buy goodies. View my Alt Goth Tokyo Shopping Guide for detailed directions and photos.
In 2008-9, I plotted the main Tokyo Gothic club venues on a Google Map here. (Some of these locations are outdated; it’s best to use the map above.)
General info about Tokyo & Osaka Goth/alternative/fetish clubs and bars. Most of the parties begin around 11pm or midnight, and run all night (the trains stop running between 1:30-5am approximately). Club admission prices vary, but are generally $20-30 US including one drink (and you may receive a discount if you RSVP in advance or abide by the dress code). Bars will sometimes have cover charges of about $5, but many have no extra fees. The DJs and guests are extremely friendly and open; the only exceptions are the obnoxious gaijin who are only looking for girls and make no effort to dress up… go home, losers!
CLUB MARZ
Address: B1F Dai-ichi Tokiwa Bldg., Kabukicho 2-45-1, Shinjuku
Tel: 03-3202-8248
URL: http://www.marz.jp/
The most popular Goth/Cyber event venue. Midnight Mess, Tokyo Dark Castle and (Osaka-based) Midnight Necropolis take place here; DJ Chihiro, Mistress Maya, DJ SiSEN and Selia often play. Two floors, two bars, and a large performance area. (For full details on Midnight Mess in video format, read this post. Dec 2014 update – this party now only happens occasionally, at various locations, especially the week before Halloween).
Midnight Mess is the longest-running Goth/Industrial party in Tokyo. There is always a fantastic turn-out of young Goths and Lolitas in amazing outfits. The performers include opera singers, dancers, S&M shows… above and here is a video with everything you know to have a spooky time! Generally the price is 2500 yen (Gothic dress code); 3000 yen with RSVP, 3500 yen (door). Drink ticket included. AGE: 18 to enter, 20 to booze.

Take the elevator up to see Goth/industrial/experimental bands, such as the Demonoid 13 party (click for review and video). You can see Goth nightlife fashion here. Kenzo-A, the Rituals Gothic fashion designer, has a new monthly Goth music event called The Head Shop at Shinjuku Motion. (Dec 2014 update: there are still often punk, Goth and indie bands performing here. Check the Motion website for listings.)

CHRISTON CAFE SHINJUKU
(Shibuya location is now closed)
Shinjuku: Oriental Wave Bldg. 8F, 5-17-13 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Japan
Tel: 03-5287-2426
I photographed both venues for my theme restaurants book! Tokyo Decadance (DJ Sisen, Chihiro) and the annual Fetish Ball used to take place at the Shibuya location, which is smaller, darker and more cavernous. The huge Shinjuku venue that looks like a flamboyant Catholic church. Tokyo Decadance’s largest events (Halloween, Xmas) take place here. There are photo booths, fortune telling, and craft stands selling Goth and Lolita goods. You can see more photos here (I did a Food Network TV shoot here).
DECADANCE BAR used to be upstairs from Christon Cafe (on the 9th floor). It’s now moved to DecabarZ (new address) 歌舞伎町1-2-13, Shinjuku-ku0. For a sense of what goes on at this club, see my report from the old Decadance location. This bar is open almost every day, and attracts a colorful alt crowd. It’s staffed by Adrien, SiSEN and other colorful Decadance regulars. Come any night of the week — there’s Goth / electro / house music, food, absinthe and stuffed toys everywhere.
** If you are in Tokyo and there aren’t any monthly parties going on, don’t despair. Deca Bar Z is always open, and has theme nights.

DEPARTMENT H is wildest fetish party in Tokyo, filled with crazy furry costumes, anime-head masks, drag queens, extreme piercings, you name it. We filmed footage at the event for Andrew Zimmern’s Bizarre Foods TV show on Travel Channel. It takes place on the first Saturday of the month and is highly recommended, for a bizarre only-in-Japan experience. See all my reports about Department H, at Kinema Klub in Uguisidani.

Studio Cube hosts Alamode Night and Club Theatric from D’s Valentine’s Artism. Frequent performances by DJ Chihiro and Sisen, the Dark Marchen, Akira Death. You’ll see lots of cosplay, cyber and Lolita outfits.

It’s a little hard to find this venue because it’s hidden in the recess of a wall. If you’re walking from Shinjuku Station, it will be on the right side of the street; look out for the AM/PM! Here’s a video I shot outside Club Hoop that will help guide you. ** Events don’t usually take place here any more.
Club Cemetery (all-Goth, amazing music), Gothic Bar Heaven and other D’s Valentine nights take place here. The back room is filled with stands where you can buy Gothic & Lolita accessories, fake nails, etc. NOTE: the Goth parties have moved to different locations after 2008. This night is no longer happening.

Another venue for DJ Sisen and Chihiro’s Gothic Bar Heaven, Club Theatric and Alamode Night. Take the East exit of JR Shibuya station and turn right on Meiji Dori. Keep walking along Meiji Dori (towards Ebisu) for a few minutes and pass the Life Supermarket. Then take the next left and Club Crawl is on the left in the basement of Maruhashi Building, opposite an AM/PM convenience store. (Dec 2014 update – see above for the more recent parties) ** Events don’t usually take place here any more.

TOKYO ABSINTHE, FETISH & VISUAL KEI JROCK BARS – Oh, how we adore the green fairy. Below are favorite hangouts of J-rockers and spooky kids.
† Bar Tram is northwest of Ebisu Station. Look for a giant stuffed raven and empty absinthe bottles outside. The place carries over a hundred varieties of absinthe from all over the world.
† Photos from a night at Bar Tram
† More fun at Bar Tram in Ebisu
† Bar Zin in Kabuki-cho, Shinjuku is a Visual Kei / J-rock bar. Dir en Grey and X Japan left memorabilia on the walls next to skulls, a devil mask, bondage goods, a giant axe, and stuffed Jack Skellington and Sally dolls.
† Another absinthe bar: Bar Breadline in Renkon/Hasune (a short subway ride from Sugamo).
† Gellonimo is a Visual Kei bar in Shinjuku.
† Star Cafe is another small Jrock / Visual Kei bar in Kabukicho, Shinjuku (near Club Marz)
† Decadance Bar also serves absinthe. It’s located above Christon Cafe Shinjuku, 9th floor. (Details above).
† Guinea Pig is a fetish bar in Kabuki-cho, Shinjuku.
† Torture Garden occurs every year or so – a fetish, play party.
† There are various rock / punk music bars in Koenji, a short subway ride from Shinjuku. See photos and reports here.
† Shibuya has a drinking alley by the subway station (Hachiko exit). We did a Goth re-creation of Anthony Bourdain’s Tokyo episode of No Reservations in this post.
† Kagaya is a crazy performance art bar in Shinbashi with puppets, costumes and… scandal! View our video here.
OSAKA GOTH INDUSTRIAL NIGHTLIFE
For Osaka Goth Industrial Lolita fashion, see my store guide.
BLACK VEIL: A phenomenal deejay, DJ Taiki’s monthly party – Black Veil – is known as one of the best Goth/EBM gatherings in Japan, if not the world. Osaka’s Black Veil always takes place at Club Neo in Shinsaibashi (the shopping district with all the Gothic Lolita Cyber Punk stores). Taiki also runs occult store Territory (see my Osaka shopping guide for details). Dec 2014 update – still the best party in town, especially the New Year’s Eve bash!

OSAKA HEAVY METAL ROCK BARS
† Bar Midian. Fu-ki, vocalist of the disbanded Visual Kei group BLOOD, opened up a heavy metal rock bar in Osaka. We went on a treasure hunt to find Bar Midian. It was quite the adventure, with scandalous boy-on-boy action along the way… (Full directions and photos here.)

You can get into the clubs when you’re 18! :) I shot a video that’s a “clubgoing 101” for Tokyo Goth nights… you’ll see it soon!
Do you know if 18-19 year olds can also get into the club events in other cities, like Black Veil in Osaka and Stigmatic in Nagoya? Thanks in advance!
Yup, all events are 18+. Black Veil is having a MADDDD New Years party — there will be coverage on this blog!
Very cool! Thanks!
Darn, should have known that a few weeks ago, then I could have visited one of the places. Oh well, some other time! Great idea though, those places could be difficult to find without a little guidance. I hope you go to lots of events and post lots of pictures from them when you go to Japan again ;)
i am so jealous! and now you are making me Tokyo sick :o( eat some green tea ice cream for me!
i keep meaning to ask you to do a green tea ice cream tutorial on your death cookbook show by the way..yum!

I just shot a new episode in Tokyo!!! Coming right up..
nicely done!
on an unrelated note, I watch G4 all the time. they have a series running right now called Underground. one episode featured Steampunk (and urban spelunking) ^-^
I'm fascinated by urban exploration. Tokyo would be a wild place for that!

that would be so exciting! I wonder if there are folks who do that there
Is there really a lot of English on fliers and on signs?
I would think almost everything would be in Japanese.It must be quite a challenge for a visitor to go exploring there if they did not know the language.
I've ALWAYS wanted to explore Tokyo,since I was a little girl who loved Ultraman!
Yup, the info is in English as well. Many of the club promoters (Midnight Mess Maya, DJ Sisen) speak English too. More info on the way!
This is an amazing guide La Carmina! Well done! I am writing about it on TokyoMade and sushizume, love it so much! Big love from Tokyo d xx

Oh my god! These points on google maps made my day!
I immediately added them to my plethora of Tokyo destinations, (46 places, and counting!)
Now all I have to do is convince my boyfriend to go to the clubs with me, AND let me dress him up in fitting garb. Alas, cargo pants and a t-shirt just won't fly for me.

I recently got to perform with Cevin Key. Otto and I ( Peasants With Feathers ) played at a venue called Repectable Street Cafe in West Palm Beach. This past Friday August 7th of 2009. The reason I'm writing about him is because he's living in Japan. His Dj set was unique and abrasive keeping that industrial feeling roaming in the mist well beyond our set.

I am doing a blog post about it in the next few days, so stay tuned for more!

Stay tuned for a post in the next day or so… :)

Interesting site, nice work.
I got a question for you…
I'm a regular black-dressed guy who like to lisen and dance to Industrial/Electro. I'll be in Tokyo around 25-28 now in september. I have nothing against lolita stuff, but I can't follow that dress code and I'm not that super interested in dress shows etc.
I've only been to German-like Indu. Elect. Goth/Fetish clubs, so it would be cool to try a Japanese club =)
So do you know any clubs where I, as a non-japanese, would be welcome. And have clubnight during my stay?
I'm thankfull for any help.

John, what GLORIOUS timing! There is a big party, Midnight Mess, on Sept 26 that you simply MUST go to. I’m about to post all the details today — so check http://lacarmina.com/
Say hi to organizer/DJ Maya for me!! Everyone is SUPER friendly, as you can see in the video posted above.
Looks interesting enough, I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the help and I’ll see if I can find Maya for you… not sure on how to pronouns “lacarmina” though ;)
I highly recommend it — let me know how it is. There is another German goth named John who will be at the party. My friend, Count de Sang, is also named John!
Ok, been there now and it was ok. I enjoyed the bondage show and I liked DJ Static. But the dance floor was a litle to small in my opinion.
I manage to find Maya and said hi from you as I promised. But I kept getting mixed up with the other John guy (who apparently didn’t show up… I think). So I didn’t join the after party I was invited to since I think it was more ment for him ;)
Anyway, I give it 4 thumbs up. Thanks for the advice on that one and enjoy your stay next week.
Rock on!

Hi,
Im heading over to Tokyo at the end of January and was wondering if you can tell me a few things…
I into the Idustrial/EBM scene in the UK but being living in Mexico for over a year now where there is very little of it!
Im going to be in Tokyo for about 5 days and i really want to go out somewhere to buy some clothes (SDL, Mercy, cyberdog type stuff) then head out for some Industrial/EBM music one night.
Can you suggest anything ? Or should i just hit some of the places in your post above?
And what sort of music is played in the clubs? Is there a lot of international english played or just japanese???
Thanks in advance!
Ooh you’re in luck — there is a Midnight Mess on Jan 23! The info is in the club guide. RSVP to maya@midnightmess.com — let her know I sent you! ;)
The music is EBM, Industrial, dark, synth… find out more here http://midnightmess.com/ Actually, most of the music is English/Western haha. A lot of the people at the club speak English too.
As for clothes — have you seen my Shopping Guide? http://lacarmina.com/2009/04/tokyo-gothic-lolita-shopping-guide-sweet-and-goth-harajuku-stores-where-to-buy-clothes-in-japan/ All the info is here, but my favorite place to shop is Closet Child (Harajuku and Shinjuku) — since the clothes are secondhand and much cheaper!
Dammit, i land in Tokyo on the 25th and leave on the 31st so wont be there for that night, taking a look at your shopping guide now to pinpoint where i can shop for some goth/cyber stuff!
Ah, there might be events coming up… check out the Goth Cyber party links on the right sidebar for the latest updates on the websites :)
Seems nothing on next weekend and its all happening this weekend. A few of your links no longer work im afraid !
Ill keep researching to see what i can find and looks like im heading off to Harajuku for one days shopping at least!
Ah, I’ll ask my friends for you — hold tight!

Do you know if 18-19 year olds can also get into the club events in other cities, like Black Veil in Osaka and Stigmatic in Nagoya? Thanks in advance!
Yup, all events are 18+. Black Veil is having a MADDDD New Years party — there will be coverage on this blog!
Very cool! Thanks!

Ok, i’ve got a question; are there the only gothic places in tokyo? I said it, because i’m loocking for something more goth and less lolita. From what i read on the blog there’s only a place in that i can enjoy goth&roll, gothic metal, or quite similars, and is in Club Walpurgis. This would not surprise me, because goth has gone from being a relief for the anxieties of obscurity to become another fad but dragged by chains of consumerism.
I’ll apreciate and thanks the answer.

Hi Armand,
Midnight Mess is very Goth/Industrial; Maya often flies in bands like Das Ich, Covenant and Skinny Puppy to perform! :D I think you’ll like this party a lot.
Thank you very much, I take note

Hello! A friend of mine and I are going to be in Tokyo from tonight until next Sunday afternoon, and were hoping to find a goth club event running while we were there. I would love to be able to compare the clubs here to those in Sydney!
Is there anything on we could get to? I speak very little Japanese and my friend speaks none.
Ahh, there doesn’t appear to be anything going on!! Not til Feb 14 ><
Try the links here http://lacarmina.com/2009/04/japan-goth-club-nightlife-guide-tokyo-decadance-dark-castle-midnight-mess-gothic-lolita-heaven/ – I didn't check all of them, but there won't be a M Mess, T Decadance or Artism event this weekend… not a Willa party. Narzib and Fashion Ramone are no more.
I'll let you know if I hear of anything, but it seems to be a dead weekend…
Ah, Yukiro says there may be a Tokyo Decadance this weekend!!
Hmm, according to their Facebook page there’s an event running :)
Thanks for the pointer, we’ll try and make our way to that! I can’t work out if we can/should buy tickets ahead, though, or just turn up on the night?

Alright, I have to start somewhere. Hi! my name is Robert I’m the keyboard player from Tactical Sekt. Myself and Anthony the lead singer got into a conversation a few days ago about where we would love to play. Japan came up right away. The problem is, while we know our music is played and loved in the east. We don’t know the first step into setting up a tour in the east. If anyone knows who we need to talk to, have interesting ideas, or just want to say hi, please let us know. TS
Hi Robert,
Thanks for writing!! I’ll send you an email — there’s a Goth event that would be perfect for you. If you don’t receive my email, you can write to me at gothiccarmina {at} gmail thanks!
Sorry I didn’t receive your email :(.. but will be sending you one in just a couple of minutes. Sorry about the lateness of the reply but I haven’t checked back here because of our Kinetik festival show. Type at ya soon. TS

I am DJ Patrick from NYC. I am going to Tokyo for the first time from September 8th thru 15th. I really don’t like Industrial/EBM. Are there any Gothic rock oriented nights that you can recommend?
Hi DJ Patrick! There are sometimes Goth band nights, such as http://lacarmina.com/2009/08/baal-13th-moon-demonoid-13-japanese-goth-bands-performing-at-king-of-evil-13-party-shinjuku-motion-in-kabuki-cho-jack-skellington-costume-makeup/
Might this interest you? If so, I can keep you posted if I hear of something.

I highly recommend the following club events;
Hi, Im trying to plan a trip to Japan form the UK for the first 2 weeks in April next year and will be spending a lot of time in Tokyo. Are there any nights likely to be on (are they the first Saturday in the month for example?) so i can plan where to be?
The parties are typically the last Saturdays of the month, but there’s always something going on, weekends!
Hi, I was wondering two things.
1. What’s the typical age to go to clubs? There are clubs here in Texas that you only have to be 17 to get in, but idk how Tokyo is.
2. Are there any events you’d recommend happening in December?
Hi! Exciting you’ll be in Tokyo soon.
1) the typical age is 18 to get in, 20 to drink. However you can get drinks at the convenience store without getting ID-ed hehe.
2) Midnight Mess, Tokyo Decadance and Department H are ongoing — usually the first and last weekends of the month have tons of events. Decadance Bar is open every night of the week.
Aw I wish I could go! But I won’t be 18 till January.. (><)

Hi, I would like to know which place or event you recomend to go the 31 December night. Any bar to go before? I am spanish and many websites are in japanese so I can´t understand if the places celebrate any cyber or goth party that day.
Thanks in advanced.
There’s an amazing party in Osaka – Black Veil. Not sure what’s going on in Tokyo…

hey there!! Currently I live in Sapporo Hokkaido but plan to move to Tokyo soon. I am into gothic and am considered to be the only foreigner in Sapporo who likes this unfortunately….as a DJ in the past, i have a personal goal to introduce industrial and goth rock into the general public in japan!! (for some reason it hasn`t really made it here yet…) what kind of music do you listen to?? are you into TBM? (the birthday Massacre) etc or do you listen to Japanese goth bands?
get back to me!!

Hi again. Finally I am staying at Shinjuku. I have been looking for something in internet but I can not find any goth/fetish/cyber event for these days in Tokyo. Do you know any place/event to go tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I will probably go tomorrow Friday to the Decadance Bar but I am not sure if it is a good option. If you can recomend me any place please tell me… Thankx again.
very good post . I like it . thank you
hot girl

Thanks for the article. I hope it’ll be very usefull when I can go to there someday.
By the way, in some of those bars only play Japanese artists? I would like to know if some other foreign artists play, like Noisuf-X, Amduscia, etc. EBM-Industrial ratherly.
Thank you. ^_^
yes they play foreign artists too and you can request them!
Hi,
