元日

New Year's Day (Ganjitsu) marks the beginning of the new year and is celebrated on January 1 in Japan.

成人の日

Planning around January 2027

January is mid-winter in Japan, cold and often dry on the Pacific side, with heavy snow on the Sea of Japan side. The first days of January (shogatsu) are a central family and shrine-visiting period.

  • The New Year holiday (shogatsu) extends through the first days of January, with many businesses closed.
  • Coming of Age Day falls on the second Monday of January, creating a three-day weekend.
