Japan’s premier lifestyle trade show, LIFESTYLE Week TOKYO [Summer], is returning to Tokyo Big Sight from June 24 to June 26, 2026. This major B2B exhibition brings together approximately 1,400 exhibitors and an expected 35,000 professional visitors under one roof, making it one of the most significant business events in Tokyo’s summer calendar.
Ten Specialized Shows in One Venue
LIFESTYLE Week TOKYO is not a single exhibition but a collection of ten specialized shows running concurrently at Tokyo Big Sight. These cover a vast range of lifestyle categories including fashion goods, gifts, design products, stationery, tableware, kitchenware, baby and kids’ products, health and beauty items, gourmet foods, and sustainable products. For anyone in the apparel, fashion, or custom-printing business, the fashion goods section is particularly relevant, showcasing the latest trends in clothing, accessories, and textile design from Japanese and international brands.
A Hub for Business and Innovation
Organized by RX Japan GK, LIFESTYLE Week TOKYO is widely recognized as the leading platform for sourcing innovative lifestyle products in Asia. Buyers, importers, distributors, retailers, and manufacturers attend from across Japan and around the world to discover new products, explore OEM opportunities, and expand their sales channels. The show runs daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and advance registration is recommended as on-site registration carries a fee of JPY 5,000.
With approximately 38,000 products on display, the event is a goldmine of inspiration for anyone involved in product design, retail, or brand development. The “Made in Japan” section is particularly popular, featuring refined Japanese crafts where tradition, quality, and modern design meet. Visitors can also explore fandom goods, design-forward stationery, and curated gift items that reflect the unique aesthetic sense of Japanese creators.
Connecting Fashion and Custom Apparel
For the custom apparel and printing industry, LIFESTYLE Week TOKYO offers unique opportunities. Fashion brands and textile manufacturers exhibit their latest collections, while many booths showcase custom printing capabilities, fabric innovations, and on-demand manufacturing solutions. The show is an excellent place to network with Japanese suppliers who specialize in high-quality garment production, from traditional textiles like indigo-dyed cottons to modern performance fabrics.
The event also provides insight into color and style trends for upcoming seasons, valuable information for anyone creating custom-printed apparel or designing collections for the Japanese market. Visitors can connect directly with manufacturers who offer low minimum order quantities, making it accessible for small businesses and independent designers to produce custom merchandise.
