Time Out says

With something in the neighbourhood of 12 million people visiting its exhibition hall and conference rooms every year, and hosting approximately 16 restaurants on the premises, Tokyo Big Sight is without a doubt Japan’s most impressive convention centre. Host to various expositions and events, it even serves as the finish line for the Tokyo Marathon. It’s famous for the unique, inverted pyramid design of its Conference Tower, which also serves to connect the East Exhibition Hall to the West Exhibition Hall. Its numerous accolades include the 38th annual Building Constructors Society Prize Special Award, and the Illuminating Engineering Institute of Japan’s 15th annual Japan Lighting Award.

What’s on

HandMade In Japan Fes

Art, crafts, fashion, accessories and much more – it’s all here at the annual Handmade in Japan Festival, a massive two-day celebration of artisanal crafts and creativity. The event attracts over 3,000 artists, designers and craftsmen in addition to thousands of amateur DIYers from all over Japan. Shop for one-of-a-kind items at the market, including clothing, homeware, handicrafts and interior decorations. Or pick up a new skill at one of the many workshops – think lamp making, building a herbarium and jewellery craft. You can also watch live painting performances, drop in on music shows, and fill up at the food stalls. It’s a full-day affair. One-day tickets go for ¥1,500 (advance purchase ¥1,300) while two-day tickets are ¥2,500 (¥2,000). You can buy tickets in advance from KKDay.
