| Cookery, kimonos and a huge competition: Japan Centre turns 45
This July marks Japan Centre's 45th birthday, and you're invited to get in on the celebrations. Since 1976, this incredible food hall has brought Japanese ex-pats a taste of home — and given other Londoners the chance to broaden their cultural horizons in the most delicious way possible.
From miso-making to traditional Japanese confectionery, Japan Centre is hosting a range of free virtual workshops and webinars across June and July that foodies will love. What's more, you can put your newfound culinary knowledge to the test for less, with up to 33% off online and in-store (look out for the many free tastings while you're there!)
Other highlights include a dazzling Nihon Buyo performance featuring kimono-clad dancers, an immersive green tea experience, and virtual tours of Japan's incredible cities. You've even got the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Tokyo, courtesy of Japan Airlines. The lucky winner gets 104,000 air miles, an exclusive city tour and a £200 UNIQLO prize bundle so you can look sharp while satisfying your wanderlust.
