teamLab Borderless
Price (from)

Key tip
Book timed slots 2–3 weeks ahead
In short: Both are world-class digital-art museums — they're just different. Planets is barefoot, watery, and playful; Borderless is a wandering maze of 50+ artworks. Whichever you pick, book a timed entry early.
Two teamLab Museums, Two Experiences
teamLab is a Tokyo-based art collective famous for room-filling digital installations you walk through rather than look at. In Tokyo there are two permanent museums, and first-time visitors often assume they're the same — they're not.
teamLab Planets in Toyosu is the immersive, physical one: you go barefoot, wade through knee-deep water, and move through installations that respond to your presence. It's the easier choice with kids. teamLab Borderless in Azabudai Hills is a labyrinth of 50+ artworks with no map and no fixed route — works literally cross between rooms, and you explore until you stumble on them. It rewards curiosity and time.
Both use timed entry and both are popular enough to sell out, so the real decision is which one fits your trip — and booking early once you've chosen.

Which teamLab Should You Pick?
Choose Planets if…
You're travelling with kids, want a hands-on, physical experience, and don't mind getting your feet wet (literally — you walk barefoot through water). It's the more playful, sensory of the two and easier to enjoy with children.
Choose Borderless if…
You want to lose yourself in art. Borderless has no fixed route — works move between rooms and you wander freely through 50+ spaces. It rewards time and patience, and it's the more photogenic of the two for adults.
Do both if…
You have two free half-days and you're a serious teamLab fan. They're genuinely different experiences in different parts of the city, so doing both isn't repetitive — just space them out and book each timed slot in advance.
How to Book teamLab Tickets
Pick your museum and date first
Planets (Toyosu) and Borderless (Azabudai) are separate venues with separate tickets. Decide which one — or both, on different days — before you book.
Book a timed-entry slot 2–3 weeks ahead
Both museums use timed entry, and popular slots (weekends, evenings) regularly sell out 2–3 weeks in advance. The earlier you book, the more slot choice you get.
Reserve through an official ticketing partner
Klook is an official teamLab ticketing partner — and for Borderless it's the exclusive third-party seller. Booking through it means English checkout and confirmation, and it accepts foreign cards.
Arrive a little early and travel light
Get there 10–15 minutes before your slot. At Planets you'll go barefoot and walk through water, so wear shorts or roll-up trousers and skip anything you can't carry.
