Linkbal Inc., operator of the event e-commerce site 'machicon JAPAN', will hold a weekend-only networking event titled 'Adult Weekend Gourmet Night in Toranomon Hills: Head to the Next Spot with Like-Minded People' on May 23 and 24, 2026. The event is designed to coincide with the 'Toranomon Hills Bar Hopping' gourmet event organized by Mori Building Co., Ltd.
This special weekend initiative aims to enhance the enjoyment of the 'Toranomon Hills Bar Hopping' event. During the approximately 50-minute networking session, participants can naturally enjoy conversations with one another, and subsequently head to restaurants within Toranomon Hills with their new acquaintances. The event offers a novel weekend experience, allowing participants to enjoy a gourmet festival featuring a record 87 participating venues—including highly sought-after restaurants and popular new spots—sparked by social interaction.
A New Networking Event Going Beyond Just 'Meeting'
Linkbal has historically provided matchmaking and networking events nationwide through machicon JAPAN. This new project focuses not only on 'who you meet' but also 'how you spend your time afterward.'
By following a group-talk networking session with an immediate tour of popular restaurants within the facility, the company has planned an event that encompasses food, conversation, and city exploration. Unlike traditional events contained within a single venue, this represents a new model that expands the participant experience by using the city itself as the stage.
Features of the Event
Natural Interaction with Over 20 People Designed in a 4-on-4 group talk format, participants can converse naturally without the tension of a 1-on-1 setting. Attendees can interact with multiple people within the 50-minute timeframe.
Head Straight to Toranomon Hills with New Connections After the networking session concludes, participants form groups on the spot to enjoy bar hopping together, seamlessly transitioning to restaurants within Toranomon Hills.
Freely Enjoy Global Gourmet Food, Sweets, and Drinks Toranomon Hills Bar Hopping is an event where guests can enjoy hopping menus (food and drink sets) starting from 1,000 yen. In its highly acclaimed fourth iteration, a record 87 stores are participating, offering around 120 varieties of bar and sweet hopping menus. A lottery campaign featuring luxurious prizes is also held for those who visit three participating stores.
