Agoda Highlights Tokyo as Top Global New Year’s Eve Destination

Digital travel platform Agoda announces Tokyo as the most popular global New Year’s Eve destination, based on accommodation searches made on Agoda. This marks a shift from last year’s leader, Taipei, showcasing Tokyo’s appeal for the upcoming celebrations.

Agoda’s data reveals Tokyo’s prominence not only on a worldwide scale but also within Japan. Domestic accommodation searches have increased by 23%, with Tokyo leading as the preferred destination, followed by Osaka, Kyoto, Yokohama, and Okinawa Main Island. For those traveling abroad, Japanese travelers are primarily considering Taipei, Seoul, Bangkok, Pattaya, and Hong Kong.

International visitors searching for Japan are also showing most of their interest in Tokyo. Japan’s capital city is followed by Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo, and Kyoto. Most of these searches come from South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, and mainland China.
