The Experience

The crawl starts at Bar Propaganda in Roppongi at 8:00 PM after a 7:30 PM check-in. Hosts introduce you to other guests, hand out a welcome shot, and explain the drink discounts available at each stop—up to 50% off at participating venues. Optional mixer games run throughout the opening hour, designed to help solo travelers and groups connect without awkwardness. From there, you walk on foot through Roppongi to 2–3 more bars, each with its own crowd and vibe. Hosts lead the group between stops and offer hosted bottle shots at selected points along the way.

The night finishes with included entry to a Roppongi nightclub where you can stay until the last train or keep dancing after midnight. Event photos are posted online after the weekend. Because venues rotate, no two nights feel the same—the crowd, the bar lineup, and the energy shift depending on when you go. Hosts speak English and Japanese, so language is not a barrier.

Dress code for the nightclub rules out flip-flops, shorts, sleeveless shirts, track pants and sweat pants; bring a valid photo ID with your birthdate visible. Some bars may not accept credit cards, so cash is safer. A coin locker near the train stations keeps valuables secure. If you're not having a good time by the second venue, tell a host and you'll get your money back.

Is this one for you?Book the Friday or Saturday option if you want a predictable crowd and full venue lineup; the New Year's Eve Special works if you're in Tokyo for the holiday and want a high-energy night with a larger group. Solo travelers benefit most from the hosted introductions and mixer games, though groups book this regularly too.
