Konnichiwa! It’s THE RIDE here, and yes, it’s true, I speak many languages, including Japanese, on my bilingual RIDES. I want people from all over the world to be able to enjoy my unique interactive entertainment experience where the streets of New York City are the stage and you’ve got front row seats!

While RIDES are also available in Spanish, French, Portuguese, Russian, Italian and Korean, the bilingual RIDES in Japanese have become so popular that we’ve added more to the schedule. Throughout 2017, there will be two RIDES with a Japanese-speaking host every third Thursday of the month. The first one is at 7:15 PM; the second takes place at 8:45 PM. If that doesn’t work with your plans, don’t worry! Bilingual RIDEs may be booked for private groups at any time with advance notice. Just contact THE RIDE’s sales team for more information by email or by phone at 646-661-7699 x168.

So what are the bilingual RIDES like? Well, as with any RIDE, you’ll climb aboard my multi-million dollar coach, where you’ll enjoy plush, stadium-style seating facing my floor-to-ceiling windows and 40 LCD TV screens. The live street performances and videos that comprise part of the show remain in English. But one of your two hilarious hosts will be fluently translating all of the highlights in Japanese so you’ll always know exactly what’s going on.
