I collect and curate Japanese car meet/event info from multiple sources, translate them into English/other languages and list them on my website.

The website currently lists 337 car meets/events scheduled around Japan till Dec 2026. The website also contains an archive of all events that I collected/curated in 2025. As many events repeat every year, it should be useful to understand what events might occur later this year. There are a total of 1,402 events listed in the site. The map section in the website also lists car culture spots and points of interest, focusing on locations near Tokyo.

There are a total of 59 events and counting in June. Although the rainy season starts in June, I expect more events will be published in the upcoming days as many events only publish their information 1 month in advance. As an example, I posted here in late March that there would be 75 events in May; now there is an astounding 131 events scheduled for this month! I will continue adding new event info for the coming months and post them on my website: https://tsjapantours.com

Here is a summary of events (too many to list all; more are listed on my site). Check my website for schedules and maps. I also released an iOS/Android version of my website too.
