About the Show
This is a one-of-a-kind cultural and entertainment show that you can experience only in Kyoto.
It is specially curated for international visitors and features professional performers with global backgrounds in two distinct, interactive segments.
The first half is an interactive ninja show led by a real kunoichi, a descendant of the Iga ninja lineage.
It includes demonstrations and explanations of traditional ninja weapons, along with dynamic sword action that brings history to life.
The second half is an interactive rock show where the audience becomes part of the performance—clapping, shouting, and having fun together with a band that blends Japanese traditional melodies with modern power.
As many tourist attractions start to close and visitors find themselves wandering the streets before dinner,
this show offers the perfect way to fill that “in-between time” with something memorable.
Kyoto offers countless activities rich in cultural value.
However, for children, students, or couples who may not have a deep interest in Japanese traditions,
these experiences can sometimes feel too serious—or even boring—as entertainment.
That’s where this show comes in.
It’s the ideal solution for those seeking something fun, engaging, and unforgettable.
It has the power to turn a “boring Kyoto” into a Kyoto they’ll remember for the rest of their lives.
Approx. total duration: 1 hour 30 minutes
(Ninja Show: ~25 min / Intermission: ~10 min / Rock Show: ~35 min / Photos & interaction)
