With a focus on the future of society, the project began with the aim of creating a new cultural experience that would reach people from all walks of life as an art project centred on exchanges involving people with different backgrounds and customs and creating encounters between various individuals.Tokyo Caravan was devised by NODA Hideki, a playwright, director, actor2, member of Tokyo Council for the Arts and artistic director of the Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre, with the aim of providing audiences with a sample of the diverse artistic scenes on offer in Tokyo and the rest of Japan.

By the end of the Tokyo 2020 Games, more than 250 projects had been selected for a wide range of activities, including large-scale private-sector cultural projects, future-proposal projects utilising cutting-edge technology, and support for community-based creative cultural activities targeting the daily cultural activities of Tokyo residents.
