Quick answer

The BANDAI CARD GAMES Fest 26-27 official site now has a Tokyo page, in Japanese, that lists the NARUTO CARD GAME among the exhibiting titles on two weekends: February 20 to 21, 2027 at the TOC exhibition hall in Nishi-Gotanda, and March 6 to 7, 2027 at Ikebukuro Sunshine City, Exhibition Hall C. Admission is free, and applying or taking part requires a face photo registered in BANDAI TCG+ and an advance application. On October 16, 2026 Bandai's NARUTO CARD GAME site gained a Tokyo page of its own, in Japanese, which repeats the dates, lists the March venue as Exhibition Halls B and C, names the NARUTO activity as a hands-on session (体験会 in BCGFest), says applying requires a face photo registered in BANDAI TCG+ and an advance application with a priority lottery for linked My Number Cards, and says the event's commemorative products are sold only on Premium Bandai, not at the venue.

Tokyo is no longer a blank on the Fest calendar. On our September 2 check the Fest's official site listed it for early 2027 with no dates and no venue. As of October 5, 2026 the site has a Tokyo page, in Japanese, with dates, four venues, and the NARUTO CARD GAME named among the exhibiting titles.

Update, October 29, 2026. Bandai's NARUTO CARD GAME site now has a Tokyo page, posted October 16, 2026 in Japanese. It confirms the two weekends, lists the March venue as Exhibition Halls B and C (the Fest site said Hall C), gives admission as free, and names the NARUTO activity for the first time: 体験会 in BCGFest, a hands-on session, with a details link to the Fest site. Applying and taking part require a face photo registered in BANDAI TCG+ and an advance application, with a priority lottery for applicants who have linked a My Number Card. The event's commemorative products are sold only on Premium Bandai, not at the venue, and the purchase window depends on your lottery result. The Japanese Fest announcement page now links to it. Shanghai is the last Fest city without a page on the NARUTO site.

Before that page existed, the listing below was on the Fest site only, and it did not say what the NARUTO activity is.

What the Fest site publishes

The Fest's schedule now reads Tokyo, February 20-21, 2027 and March 6-7, 2027. Its Tokyo page says dates and venues differ by title, and lists each title with its own. For the NARUTO CARD GAME it gives two:

DatesVenueAddress as given
1February 20 to 21, 2027 (Saturday and Sunday)TOC exhibition hall7-22-17 Nishi-Gotanda, Shinagawa, Tokyo 141-0031
2March 6 to 7, 2027 (Saturday and Sunday)Ikebukuro Sunshine City, Exhibition Hall C on the Fest site; Halls B and C on Bandai's NARUTO page3-1-4 Higashi-Ikebukuro, Toshima, Tokyo 170-0013, Bunka Kaikan building 3F

The page is in Japanese; the venue names and addresses above are our plain rendering of it. On the same page UNION ARENA and the DRAGON BALL SUPER CARD GAME Fusion World share the February weekend at TOC, and Battle Spirits and the DIGIMON CARD GAME share the March weekend at Sunshine City. The ONE PIECE CARD GAME and the GUNDAM CARD GAME are listed at two other venues in March.

Admission is given as free. The page says applying and taking part requires a face photo registered in BANDAI TCG+ and an advance application, and that Bandai plans a priority lottery for applicants who have linked a My Number Card. It lists these application periods:

  • Main events: November 20 to 29, 2026, with results around December 14, 2026.
  • Side events, advance application: December 25, 2026 to January 3, 2027, with results around January 15, 2027.
  • Side events, second round: from January 29, 2027 for the February dates and from February 10, 2027 for the March dates.

What is not published

  • The NARUTO activity, in detail. The Asian Fest pages say Teaching Session and the Orlando and London pages say Tutorial Session. The Fest's Tokyo page says neither; Bandai's NARUTO page, since October 16, says 体験会 in BCGFest, a hands-on session, with no times, capacity or gift.
  • Which application period applies. The page does not say whether the NARUTO CARD GAME falls under main events, side events or neither.
  • Times, capacity, booth and any commemorative item for the title.
  • A page in English. The Tokyo page exists only in the Japanese locale. The Japanese Fest 26-27 announcement from July 29, 2026 now links to it; the English, Asia English and Traditional Chinese announcements link to their own city pages and not to Tokyo.

Where Tokyo sits in the run

Tokyo closes the calendar, after Orlando on January 7 to 10 and London on January 15 to 17, 2027. Bandai's NARUTO site has a dedicated page for nine of the eleven Fest cities: Jakarta, Manila, Bangkok, Hong Kong S.A.R., Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, Orlando and London, and since October 16, 2026, Tokyo. Shanghai is the one without.

The Tokyo dates fall after Bandai's Premier Demo Events begin in Japanese stores on January 16, 2027 and before the June 2027 release. Three Starter Decks and Booster Pack 01 are announced for June with no set code, card list or price yet; the priced items are the $35 plus tax convention playmat and the 1,650 yen Chakra Set vol.00 and 3,850 yen Naruto vs. Sasuke playmat sold at the Japanese Premier Demo Events.

Our events page lists every stop, release date tracks the roadmap, and our report on Kuala Lumpur and Taipei has the current table of Fest stops, and our October 29 report covers the Tokyo page's arrival. This page gets session times and the application window for the NARUTO session when Bandai publishes them.

Frequently asked questions

Is the NARUTO CARD GAME confirmed for the Tokyo Fest?
Yes, on two sites. The Fest's own Tokyo page names the NARUTO CARD GAME with two sets of dates and venues: February 20 to 21, 2027 at the TOC exhibition hall, and March 6 to 7, 2027 at Ikebukuro Sunshine City. Since October 16, 2026 Bandai's NARUTO CARD GAME site has its own Tokyo page in Japanese with the same dates; it lists the March venue as Exhibition Halls B and C where the Fest site said Hall C.
When and where is the Tokyo Fest?
The Fest site gives February 20 to 21, 2027 and March 6 to 7, 2027, and says dates and venues differ by title. Four venues are named across the titles. The two attached to the NARUTO CARD GAME are the TOC exhibition hall at 7-22-17 Nishi-Gotanda, Shinagawa, and Ikebukuro Sunshine City, Exhibition Hall C, at 3-1-4 Higashi-Ikebukuro, Toshima.
What will the NARUTO CARD GAME do in Tokyo, and how do I apply?
Bandai's NARUTO site page lists one activity, a hands-on session, written as 体験会 in BCGFest, with a details link to the Fest site. Admission is free. Applying and taking part require a face photo registered in BANDAI TCG+ and an advance application, and the page says a priority lottery is run for applicants who have linked a My Number Card. The Fest site gives application periods for main events (November 20 to 29, 2026) and side events (December 25, 2026 to January 3, 2027) without saying which covers the NARUTO session.
