After midnight, most Tokyo bars and restaurants have closed, but a smaller set of late-night bars, karaoke spots and music lounges keep going — some, like MYK'S in Kinshicho, run straight through to 9:00 AM on weekend nights.

Music Lounges & Discos
The latest-running category — live bands, DJs and dance floors running to sunrise.
Midnight to 9:00 AM, Tuesday through Sunday.
MYK'S is built specifically for the hours after most of Tokyo has gone home — live bands and resident DJs from Midnight, in the same Kinshicho room that runs as a restaurant earlier in the evening.
