Reviews by situation
“Relaxing alone” Recommendation score: 6 /10
You may be able to take your time admiring the distinctive inverted pyramid shape and surrounding objects when you visit alone. Because the surrounding area is open, there is no sense of oppression even if it is crowded with events.
“Kids will love it” Recommendation score: 4 /10
It is difficult to say whether children will enjoy it, but there are many narrow paths and backstreets, making it an interesting place.
“As a date” Recommendation score: 1 /10
Depending on the event held, it may be included in a date plan, but it is not a place to visit on a regular basis.
“Fun with friends” Recommendation score: 1 /10
It depends on the event held, so it is not a place to visit on a regular basis.

Access
Tokyo Big Sight Station (Yurikamome) is the closest station, and if you exit the ticket gate and turn right, you will arrive in about 2 minutes on foot without getting lost. However, we think Kokusai Tenji-jo Station (Rinkai Line) is slightly easier to access. In this case, after exiting the ticket gate, turn right and walk straight for about 5 minutes, but you won’t get lost as you can see Tokyo Big Sight in front of you.
Main limited-time events
The Summer Comic Market will be held for two days in mid-August. The Winter Comic Market will be held for two days in late December.
