Overview

teamLab Planets TOKYO is No. 24 in The Art Newspaper's survey of the world's most visited art museums, with 2,516,719 visitors in 2025, up 3% on 2024. Opened in 2018 in Toyosu by the art collective teamLab, it is a museum of large-scale immersive digital artworks.

Visitors walk barefoot through the installations, some of them in knee-deep water, where projected light and sound respond to their movements. A separate garden area has works set among plants and moss.

Visiting tips

Tickets & hours
Buy timed tickets online in advance. Check the official website for prices and hours.
What to wear
You walk barefoot, and the water can be knee-deep, so wear trousers that roll up above the knee or shorts. Mirrored floors make short skirts a poor choice; shorts are available to borrow. Lockers are provided.
Time needed
About 1.5 to 2 hours.
Currency
Japanese yen (JPY). Cards are widely accepted, but carry some cash for small restaurants, shrines and markets.
Visa & entry
Citizens of many countries, including the US, Canada, the UK, Australia and EU countries, can visit Japan visa-free for short stays. Register on Visit Japan Web (vjw.digital.go.jp) before you fly to get QR codes for immigration and customs. Check Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs website for the rules that apply to your passport.
