“Oikon” (Farewell Party) is a deeply rooted Japanese tradition where junior students host a party to congratulate and send off their graduating seniors.
Shibuya is the premier destination for these events due to its energetic vibe and central location. One of the biggest trends is booking a “Kashikiri” (Private Venue Hire).
By booking a private space, groups can enjoy customized activities such as:
-
Video Tributes: Playing nostalgic slide shows on large screens.
-
Speeches & Presentations: Using microphones to share heartfelt messages without outside noise.
-
Flexible Layouts: Moving around freely to talk to everyone before they graduate.
For international students or mixed groups, Shibuya offers a wide range of food options, from traditional Japanese courses to Western-style buffets. Having a private space in the heart of the city makes the graduation season unforgettable, ensuring that the last moments spent with friends are personal, loud, and full of laughter. If you are planning a grand send-off, Shibuya’s private venues are the way to go!
