Tips
- Experience three themed areas—the Garden Area, Water Area, and Public Area—each composed of large art installations. Download the teamLab app and you can interact with the art yourself!
- Outside the building is a sitting, dining, and play area made from one long, flowing bench.
- Visit Vegan Ramen Uzu Tokyo, located onsite, to enjoy a bowl of noodles while surrounded by an art installation. The teamLab Flower Shop & Art store sells orchids used in the artwork.
teamLab Planets is one of teamLab's most successful projects. This multimedia experience has attracted over two million visitors, including celebrities and others from all over the world.

The artworks are large-scale fusions of color and light that change as you walk in and around them. As you arrive at the gallery, you take your shoes off. You explore the space barefoot, at times wading knee-deep in water. Another gallery has you walking among a garden of over 13,000 real flowers—blending nature with technology. You can get lost in the same way you might get lost in a forest. It's a multisensory experience.

In October 2021, the popular Kyoto-based Vegan Ramen Uzu opened their first Tokyo location inside teamLab Planets. You can enjoy a bowl of noodles while inside one of the art spaces. The food is completely plant-based, and the Tokyo location features some exclusive menu items. The original Kyoto shop was highlighted by the Michelin Guide as a Bib Gourmand restaurant.
teamLab Planets is located in Toyosu, which is home to the famous Toyosu Market. There's also a waterfront area with plenty of shopping facilities. The busy districts of Tsukiji and Ginza are within walking distance.
