Ceud Mille Failte! A Hundred Thousand Welcome to the St. Andrew Society of Yokohama and Tokyo!

We are a group of Scots, Japanese and other nationalities who aim to promote friendship between Scottish and Japanese people and improve knowledge and understanding of Scottish traditions and culture. This particularly applies to the healthy traditions of drinking whisky, eating well and dancing reels.

We do this by running a full calendar of events throughout the year, including the Burns Supper, the St. Andrew Ball, informal ceilidhs and a Spring Picnic where we combine Scottish and Japanese culture by holding a ceilidh and barbeque under the cherry blossom.

We are very lucky to have the Tokyo Pipe Band and the Tokyo Bluebells at many of our events, as well as special guests that have included the Queen's Piper in recent years.

Our membership has been growing steadily over the last few years and we welcome old friends and new to our events this year, where you will be assured of a friendly Scottish welcome!
