You’ve watched every ramen documentary, saved 400 TikToks of Kyoto in bloom, and priced up flights to Tokyo, only to remember your bank account has other plans.
Good news: Amsterdam has a Japanese dinner show for a fraction of the airfare! 🍣
The Arigato Show, the very first of its kind in Amsterdam, promises an evening built around the Japanese art of hospitality, omotenashi.
What’s on the menu?
Scheduled for September 11, visitors can enjoy five delicious courses, with fresh sushi and sashimi sliced right in front of you, washed down with some sake.

Done with your meal? Settle down for some Japanese storytelling, as well as live handpan and Taiko performances.
The doors open at 6:30 PM, with dinner starting at 7 PM, and a party until 3 AM included in your dinner ticket.
Can’t make it to dinner? You can also purchase an afterparty-only ticket for €19,50 and join the celebrations from 10 PM — featuring Japanese DJs and a bout of karaoke.
