Best Time to Visit Tokyo, Month by Month (and When to Add the Snow Monkeys)

Tokyo month by month

January: crisp, sunny and cheap (8/10)

January is Tokyo’s sunniest month and one of the best-value times to visit, as long as you dress for cold mornings.

January at a glance High/low 9.8°C / 1.2°C · Rain 59.7 mm · Sunshine 192.6 h · Snow days 2.8 (JMA) Crowds: high 29 Dec–3 Jan, low after that 2027 holidays: New Year’s Day (Fri 1 Jan), Coming of Age Day (Mon 11 Jan)

Weather: Cold, dry and bright. The clear winter air gives you your best odds of seeing Mt Fuji from Tokyo’s observation decks. JMA’s average date for Tokyo’s first snow is 3 January, though most years bring only a dusting.

What’s on: Hatsumode, the first shrine visit of the year, packs Meiji Jingu and Senso-ji from 1 to 3 January: huge, cheerful crowds. The January Grand Sumo Tournament (Hatsu Basho) runs 10–24 January 2027 at Ryogoku Kokugikan. General ticket sales are reported to open on 5 December 2026; seats often sell out on day one, so check the Japan Sumo Association’s ticket site. Winter illuminations continue across the city.

Pack: A warm coat, layers, gloves, and lip balm for the dry air.

Verdict: Bright skies, low hotel demand after the New Year week, sumo and clear views. The downsides are early sunsets, New Year closures on 1–3 January, and cold evenings.

Add the snow monkeys? Yes, this is peak season. Snow usually lies at Jigokudani from about December to March, and January to February gives the best odds of monkeys soaking in the steaming pool. Winter hours are 9:00–16:00. From 1 December 2026 the park charges ¥880 for an online (Webket) ticket or ¥1,000 at the gate (children ¥440 / ¥500), according to the park’s 20 September 2026 notice. Check the official site before you go. Online tickets are date-specific and their holders get priority entry from December to April; on crowded days, visitors without a ticket may have to wait or may be refused. Details on tickets and the trail are in our Jigokudani park guide.

February: plum blossom and the best monkey month (8/10)

February is still low season in Tokyo, with bright weather, the first plum blossom, and the best odds of both snow and bathing at Jigokudani.

February at a glance High/low 10.9°C / 2.1°C · Rain 56.5 mm (driest month) · Sunshine 170.4 h · Snow days 3.5 (JMA’s snowiest month) Crowds: low–medium; busier around Lunar New Year 2027 dates: Setsubun (around 3 Feb), Lunar New Year (Sat 6 Feb), National Foundation Day (Thu 11 Feb), Emperor’s Birthday (Tue 23 Feb)

Weather: The driest month by rainfall and the most likely month for snow in Tokyo, though “likely” still means a few flurry days and rarely more than a few centimetres.

What’s on: Setsubun bean-throwing ceremonies at temples and shrines on or around 3 February. Plum blossom at gardens such as Yushima Tenjin and Koishikawa Korakuen (timing varies; check each garden’s site). Lunar New Year on 6 February 2027 can lift demand from East Asian markets for a few days.

Pack: As for January, plus waterproof boots with grip if you’re heading to Nagano.

Verdict: Low prices, crisp light and plum blossom. Still cold, with short days.

Add the snow monkeys? Yes, our top month. Snow, steam and frequent bathing usually coincide. Go on a weekday, book your Webket ticket as soon as your date is fixed (sales open about three months ahead), and arrive early. See best time to see the snow monkeys for the month-by-month detail, and why snow monkeys bathe for what puts them in the water.

March: plum to cherry, and the crowds arrive (8/10; 9/10 in the last week)

Early March is quiet and pleasant. The last week of March usually brings the start of cherry blossom season, which is beautiful and very busy.

March at a glance High/low 14.2°C / 5.0°C · Rain 116.0 mm · Sunshine 175.3 h Cherry blossom (JMA average): first bloom about 24 March, full bloom about 31 March. In 2026: first bloom 19 March, full bloom 28 March Crowds: medium early, very high from about 20 March 2027 holiday: Vernal Equinox Day (Sun 21 Mar), with a substitute holiday on Mon 22 Mar

Weather: Rainfall doubles compared with February, and the temperature swings are big. Bring layers.

What’s on: Hanami season. JMA declares Tokyo’s first bloom when its sample Somei-yoshino tree at Yasukuni Shrine shows at least five or six open flowers, and full bloom when about 80% of buds are open. In 2026 bloom came five days ahead of average, and full bloom followed nine days later. No 2027 forecast exists yet; the first ones usually appear from late January or February, so plan for the last week of March to the first week of April and fine-tune later.

Pack: A light down jacket or trench coat, a scarf and a compact umbrella.

Verdict: Blossom, mild days and spring menus. Hotel rates spike during bloom, the famous spots are packed, and the timing is never certain.

Add the snow monkeys? Maybe, and the earlier the better. The monkeys still bathe, but snow at Jigokudani usually thins as March goes on. If snow is the point, go in the first half of the month.

April: blossom finale, fresh green, then Golden Week (9/10 for 1–20 April)

The first week of April is often classic sakura time. Mid-April is a sweet spot, with late double-flowered cherries, fresh greenery and smaller crowds. Avoid the start of Golden Week on 29 April.

April at a glance High/low 19.4°C / 9.8°C · Rain 133.7 mm · Sunshine 178.8 h Crowds: very high 1–7 April and from 29 April; medium mid-month 2027 holiday: Showa Day (Thu 29 Apr), which opens Golden Week

Weather: Comfortably warm days and cool evenings: some of the best sightseeing weather of the year.

What’s on: Late yaezakura cherries in parks such as Shinjuku Gyoen, and azaleas at Nezu Shrine later in the month.

Pack: Layers and a light jacket.

Verdict: Ideal temperatures and greenery. Early-April and Golden Week prices are high, and an early bloom year can leave you arriving after the petals have fallen.

Add the snow monkeys? Maybe. The snow has mostly gone and bathing is less frequent, but the park is calmer. Summer hours (8:30–17:00) start in April, and Webket priority still applies until the end of the month. Go if you’re curious about the monkeys rather than set on the snow-and-steam photo. In 2027 you can pair it with Zenko-ji’s Gokaicho in Nagano (reported for 4 April–19 June 2027).

May: the post–Golden Week sweet spot (9/10 from 6 May)

From 6 May to early June, Tokyo is warm, green and noticeably calmer than in spring. It’s one of the best-value windows of the year.

May at a glance High/low 23.6°C / 14.6°C · Rain 139.7 mm · Sunshine 179.6 h Golden Week 2027: Thu 29 April–Wed 5 May (Showa Day 29 Apr; Constitution Day 3 May; Greenery Day 4 May; Children’s Day 5 May). Fri 30 April is a working day that many people take off Crowds: very high to 5 May, then medium

What’s on:

• May Grand Sumo Tournament (Natsu Basho): 9–23 May 2027, Ryogoku Kokugikan.
• Kanda Matsuri: 2027 is a main-festival (honmatsuri) year, since the full festival is held in odd-numbered years. Processions usually fall on a weekend in mid-May, but Kanda Myojin had not announced 2027 dates as of 2 October 2026.
• Sanja Matsuri at Asakusa Shrine is traditionally held over the third weekend of May. 2027 dates are not yet confirmed.

Pack: T-shirts, a light layer and sunscreen; UV is already strong.

Verdict: Long warm days, two big festivals and sumo, with fair prices once Golden Week is over. Humidity starts creeping up late in the month.

Add the snow monkeys? Yes, for the babies. Most infants are born from about late April to June, so mid-to-late May brings newborns clinging to their mothers, a green forest and thinner crowds. There’s no snow, and bathing is rare. More on monkey life: snow monkey facts.

June: rainy season, and the low-price month (5/10)

June is tsuyu (rainy season) month: humid and grey, with the fewest sunshine hours of the year, but also the quietest and cheapest time before summer.

June at a glance High/low 26.1°C / 18.5°C · Rain 167.8 mm · Sunshine 124.2 h (lowest of the year) Rainy season, Kanto-Koshin (JMA average): about 7 June to 19 July. In 2026 (confirmed): about 2 June to 19 July Crowds: low · No public holidays

Weather: More drizzle and grey skies than constant downpours, with sticky humidity. The rainy season is a front that comes and goes, not six weeks of non-stop rain.

What’s on: Hydrangeas at Hakusan Shrine in Tokyo and Meigetsu-in in Kamakura; the Sanno Matsuri at Hie Shrine (the smaller version in odd years like 2027); and the indoor Tokyo of museums, depachika food halls and izakaya.

Pack: A sturdy umbrella, quick-dry clothes and shoes that cope with puddles.

Verdict: Low crowds, lower prices, lush gardens. Grey skies and humidity, and outdoor plans at the mercy of the weather.

Add the snow monkeys? Maybe. The babies are still young and the valley is lush, but rain makes the forest trail muddy and the monkeys rarely bathe. Only wildlife fans will want it.

July: festivals, fireworks and rising heat (4/10)

Come in July for festivals and fireworks, not comfort. Once the rainy season ends (on average about 19 July), Tokyo is properly hot.

July at a glance High/low 29.9°C / 22.4°C · Rain 156.2 mm · Sunshine 151.4 h 2027 holiday: Marine Day (Mon 19 Jul). School summer holidays start in late July Crowds: medium–high

Heat warning: The normals understate today’s summers. JMA confirmed Japan’s summer 2025 as the hottest since records began in 1898, 2.36°C above normal; the previous record, +1.76°C, was shared by 2023 and 2024. In August 2025 Tokyo logged a record 10 straight days at or above 35°C.

What’s on: Tanabata (7 July), neighbourhood summer festivals and the Sumida River Fireworks, held on the last Saturday of July (25 July in 2026). That points to 31 July 2027, but organisers announce the date each year, so treat it as provisional.

Pack: Breathable clothing, a hat, a refillable bottle, electrolytes and a cooling towel.

Verdict: Yukata, beer gardens and fireworks. Heat, humidity, heatstroke risk and school-holiday crowds from late July.

Add the snow monkeys? No. The monkeys don’t bathe in the heat, many stay up in the forest, and the trail is steamy. Spend a cooler day in the mountains or by the sea instead (see day trips from Tokyo).

August: hottest month, Obon crowds (3/10)

August is Tokyo’s least comfortable month for most travellers: the hottest on the normals, with domestic holiday crowds around Obon and a rising typhoon risk.

August at a glance High/low 31.3°C / 23.5°C · Rain 154.7 mm · Sunshine 174.2 h 2027 holiday: Mountain Day (Wed 11 Aug). Obon falls around 13–16 August; it isn’t a public holiday but is a peak domestic travel week Typhoons: 0.8 approaches to Kanto-Koshin on average (JMA) Crowds: high around Obon

What’s on: Fireworks, bon-odori dances, and Koenji Awa Odori, usually in late August (confirm the dates).

Pack: As for July, plus a handheld fan and a rain shell for sudden storms.

Verdict: Lively festivals and the Mt Fuji climbing season. Dangerous heat, Obon prices and possible typhoon disruption.

Add the snow monkeys? No. Hot, humid, no bathing, and disappointing photos.

September: typhoon peak and lingering heat (4/10)

September stays summer-hot for much of the month and is Tokyo’s peak typhoon month. Book flexible fares and keep plans loose.

September at a glance High/low 27.5°C / 20.3°C · Rain 224.9 mm · Sunshine 126.7 h Typhoons: 1.2 approaches to Kanto-Koshin on average, the most of any month (JMA 1991–2020) 2027 holidays: Respect for the Aged Day (Mon 20 Sep), Autumnal Equinox Day (Thu 23 Sep). No “Silver Week” run of holidays in 2027 Crowds: medium

A cautionary tale: central Tokyo had rain on 34 consecutive days from 27 August to 29 September 2026, beating the previous record of 33 days set in 2019. Typhoon Dujuan alone dropped 156 mm on 21 September. Not every September is like this, but it’s sensible to carry travel insurance that covers weather disruption.

What’s on: The September Grand Sumo Tournament (Aki Basho): 12–26 September 2027, Ryogoku Kokugikan, and the Tokyo Game Show at Makuhari Messe (2027 dates not yet announced).

Pack: Lightweight rainwear and summer clothes.

Verdict: Sumo and fewer tourists than in summer. Typhoons, heat and the second-wettest month of the year.

Add the snow monkeys? No. Typhoons can disrupt trains and mountain roads, there’s no bathing, and the trail gets muddy.

October: autumn arrives (7/10; 8/10 in the second half)

Early October can still bring typhoons and rain. From mid-month Tokyo turns comfortable again, with warm days, cool nights and harvest-season food.

October at a glance High/low 22.0°C / 14.8°C · Rain 234.8 mm (wettest month on the normals) · Sunshine 129.4 h Typhoons: 0.7 approaches to Kanto-Koshin on average Holidays: Sports Day (Mon 12 Oct 2026; Mon 11 Oct 2027) Crowds: medium–high

What’s on: Autumn menus, sports and culture festivals, and Halloween, with a caveat. Since 1 October 2024, drinking in public spaces around Shibuya Station has been banned every night from 6 pm to 5 am, all year round, and since June 2026 Shibuya also issues on-the-spot ¥2,000 littering fines. The ward does not treat the station area as a Halloween venue, so head to organised events instead.

Pack: Light layers, a jacket for evenings and an umbrella.

Verdict: Pleasant temperatures return and crowds are thinner than in November. On average it’s the wettest month, with typhoon risk early on.

Add the snow monkeys? Maybe. There’s no snow or bathing to speak of, but the Yamanouchi hills take on autumn colour (timing varies). It pairs nicely with an overnight in Shibu Onsen. Just don’t expect the classic photo.

November: the best month to visit Tokyo (10/10)

November is Tokyo’s most reliable month: comfortable, fairly dry, often sunny, and gold with ginkgo by the end of the month.

November at a glance High/low 16.7°C / 8.8°C · Rain 96.3 mm · Sunshine 149.8 h Foliage 2026 (Japan Meteorological Corporation, first forecast, 2 Sep 2026): yellow ginkgo about 26 Nov, red maples about 29 Nov in Tokyo, both close to average Holidays: Culture Day (3 Nov), Labour Thanksgiving Day (23 Nov) Crowds: high, especially on foliage weekends

What’s on: The ginkgo avenue at Meiji Jingu Gaien; autumn light-ups at gardens such as Rikugien; Shichi-go-san family shrine visits around 15 November; and Christmas illuminations switching on from early to mid-November.

Pack: A light down jacket or wool coat, plus layers.

Verdict: The best weather-to-scenery ratio of the year and a superb food season. Popular foliage spots get busy, and when Kyoto is at peak colour, demand for trains and hotels rises across the country.

Add the snow monkeys? Maybe, the least predictable month. You’re between seasons: snow can come early or late, and bathing is irregular. Combine it with an onsen night in Shibu if you’re curious; skip it if the snow photo is your goal. Note that from 1 December 2026 the park’s admission price changes (see December).

December: illuminations and the start of monkey season (7/10)

December is bright, dry and festive. Prices are reasonable until mid-month, then climb sharply from about 25 December to 3 January.

December at a glance High/low 12.0°C / 3.8°C · Rain 57.9 mm · Sunshine 174.4 h · Snow days 0.6 Crowds: medium, then very high over New Year (year-end closures usually run 29 Dec–3 Jan)

What’s on: Winter illuminations (Marunouchi, Roppongi and others, varying by year), Christmas markets, year-end markets, and temple bells on New Year’s Eve.

Pack: A winter coat, gloves and a scarf.

Verdict: Clear skies, illuminations and quiet weekdays early in the month. Christmas and New Year prices, and closures from 29 December.

Add the snow monkeys? Yes, from mid-December. Snow usually builds through the month and bathing picks up; early December can be patchy. From 1 December 2026 the park charges ¥880 for a Webket ticket or ¥1,000 at the gate (children ¥440 / ¥500), according to the park’s 20 September 2026 notice. Check the official site before you go. Bargain tip: JR East’s Tokudane Special 28 e-tickets (50% off the fare and express ticket) cover weekday travel on 7–17 December 2026 on limited trains and seats, including the Hokuriku Shinkansen to Nagano. Check Eki-net for the sale window, because seats are limited. A warm bath after the cold walk is easy to add: our guide to the best onsen near Tokyo covers the options.

Tokyo’s seasons at a glance

Winter is underrated and the best value; spring is iconic but expensive; early summer is the budget pick; high summer is for festival lovers only; and autumn has the best month of all, November.

When should you visit Tokyo, by type of traveller?

Most travellers should aim for November or late March to early April; budget travellers and snow monkey fans should look at January and February.

• First-timers: November, or the last week of March to the first week of April. Book the spring window four to six months ahead.
• Budget travellers: mid-January to February, or June. Avoid 29 December to 3 January, Golden Week and Obon.
• Photographers: January–February for clear air, Fuji views and snow monkeys; late March for blossom; late November for ginkgo.
• Families: mid-to-late May, or late October to November. Avoid July and August with small children.
• Festival lovers: May 2027 (a Kanda Matsuri main year, plus Sanja Matsuri) and late July (Sumida River Fireworks, provisionally 31 July 2027).
• Foodies: October to November for harvest season, or winter for hot pots and oysters.
• Heat-averse travellers: October to May only.
• Sumo fans: 10–24 January, 9–23 May or 12–26 September 2027, all at Ryogoku Kokugikan.

When is the best time to combine Tokyo with the snow monkeys?

Late January to February is the best window, with mid-December and early March as good shoulder options and mid-to-late May for babies. Snow and bathing are never guaranteed, but these windows give you the best odds. Our best time to see the snow monkeys guide goes through the park side of each month, including the best hour of the day at the pool.

1. Late January to February (best): usually reliable snow at Jigokudani, frequent bathing, Tokyo’s low season and its sunniest weather. In 2027 you can add the January sumo (10–24 January).
2. Mid-December (good): Tokyo’s illuminations, the start of monkey season and pre-holiday prices, plus Tokudane Special 28 rail discounts on weekdays 7–17 December 2026.
3. Early March (good): often still some snow, combined with plum blossom and, later, the first cherry blossom in Tokyo.
4. Mid-to-late May, after Golden Week (babies): newborn monkeys, green forest and calmer crowds.

Getting there: the Hokuriku Shinkansen takes from about 80 minutes from Tokyo to Nagano (¥8,450 reserved, one way). From Nagano, the express bus to the Snow Monkey Park stop takes about 45 minutes (¥3,000 in winter / ¥2,000 the rest of the year, one way, adults). Alternatively, take the Nagaden limited express to Yudanaka (about 45 minutes, ¥1,760 including the ¥100 express fee) and the local bus (¥390; check the fare chart on board). Then it’s about 2 km on foot along a forest trail, 30 to 40 minutes (allow longer on snow). Prices are as of October 2026; check before you travel.

Prefer not to juggle trains, buses and tickets in the snow? GetYourGuide sells private day trips with a driver from Tokyo, and group tours that meet you in Nagano off the bullet train. The most reviewed day trip from Tokyo is the Tokyo private Snow Monkey Park and Nagano day trip (from $102 per person, 4.9/5 from 220+ reviews), with two hours at the park. We compare the options in which snow monkey tour from Tokyo is right for you.

Does it snow in Tokyo?

Yes, but rarely, and it seldom settles. On JMA’s 1991–2020 normals, the Tokyo observatory records snowfall on about 8.5 days a year (2.8 in January, 3.5 in February, 1.4 in March, 0.6 in December), with an annual total of just 8 cm. That count includes days with only flurries or sleet. The average first snow is 3 January.

When 10 cm or so does fall, trains slow and the city struggles, so build in slack if a heavy-snow warning is issued. For dependable snow, head to Nagano, Gunma or Niigata; our guide to snow in Japan, city by city compares them.

Key dates: October 2026 to 2027
