Tokonatsu 2017 Shop now open!
Greetings all! By now, regular attendees will be familiar with the idea of Tokonatsu branded T-Shirts and Hoodies going on sell for the given year.

Toko Highlights 2016: Day One
Friday is quite often my favourite day at Toko. For one, it’s quieter in the morning, which makes showering that wee but easier.

I love catching up with a host of amazing, unique people that I don’t get to see at any other time of the year, but I also enjoy watching the reaction of first-time congoers. They arrive to see an open, welcoming community devoted to one thing: having fun with a range of likeminded people. This year was no different, with the amount of fresh faces immensely pleasing.
