Another one bites the dust. Tokyo International BarShow 2020 has officially been canceled due to the coronavirus.
It's not rescheduled. It's canceled altogether.
Though inevitable due to the worsening situation worldwide, this one stings quite a bit since it's the biggest event of the year for Tokyo's cocktail world.
For those that already purchased tickets, expect to hear from the organizers, the Cocktail Culture Foundation.
