What is teamLab Planets?

teamLab Planets TOKYO is a museum of immersive digital art by the Japanese collective teamLab, in Toyosu on Tokyo Bay. It opened on 7 July 2018 and, according to its official site, will run until the end of 2027.

The idea is to dissolve the boundary between people and art: you walk through the rooms barefoot, in some the water rises to your knees with glowing fish and flowers drifting across it, and the projections react to your movement. There's also a garden of living orchids and moss that starts to glow after sunset.

How the museum works

Tickets are sold for a set entry time, with dynamic pricing — according to the official site, from ¥3,800 for adults, ¥2,800 for junior high and high school students and ¥1,500 for ages 4–12, with younger children free. A ¥12,000 Premium Pass gives priority entry with no set time. Tickets bought on the official site can have their time changed up to three times, up to two hours before entry.

The museum is open 8:00 to 22:00, with last entry an hour before closing. Inside are lockers, towels and a route through several rooms, followed by vegan ramen and a shop. A visit usually takes about 1.5–2 hours.

What to see

  • The water room with glowing fish, knee-deep.
  • The mirrored room of endless lights.
  • The orchid garden — flowers floating in the air.
  • The moss garden with glowing spheres after dark.
  • The soft room, where the floor gives way underfoot.
  • UZU vegan ramen after your visit.

How long do you need?

Allow 1.5–2 hours for teamLab Planets. Morning slots are usually calmer, while after sunset the garden looks different — the artwork itself changes.

Toyosu Market and Odaiba are nearby, so it's easy to make a day of the bay. Get to the station early — at peak times the Yurikamome is full.

Is teamLab Planets worth it?

Yes: it's one of Tokyo's most unusual experiences — walking barefoot through water among glowing fish and flowers — and it works for children and adults alike.

The YesGo take: tickets aren't cheap, popular slots sell out, and rooms are crowded at weekends. Buy ahead on the official site, pick a weekday morning and dress so you can roll your trousers above the knee.
