Awareness Event at Ueno's Pocket Park: Ueno Police Station Holds "110 Emergency Number Proper Use Campaign"
The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Ueno Police Station will hold the "110 Emergency Number Proper Use Campaign" at the Pocket Park in the Ueno area. The event takes place on one day only: September 12, 2026.
110 is Japan's dedicated number for reaching the police directly in emergencies such as crimes and accidents. While most people know the number, it is reportedly also used for non-urgent consultations and inquiries. In response, the police regularly run awareness activities in many areas to encourage proper use, and this campaign in central Ueno is part of that effort.
The Pocket Park venue is a small public space in Ueno, easy for passersby to drop into. The area sees steady foot traffic from shoppers, tourists, commuters and students, which makes it a good spot for the police to reach many residents and visitors directly. Ueno draws people for both sightseeing and daily life, with its art galleries, museums, zoo and shopping streets, so a campaign here is likely to be seen by a wide range of people, including tourists and nearby students and office workers as well as local residents.
Details of the campaign, such as the event format and whether any materials will be handed out, are not clear from the information published so far. The venue address and participation fees have also not been announced, so please check the official page for details.
Community awareness activities like this one by Ueno Police Station aim to keep the emergency call system working as intended, and are part of the effort to support local safety and security. If you pass by the Pocket Park on the day, it may be worth stopping to take a look.
