teamLab Borderless at Azabudai Hills Passes 4 Million Visitors; Works, Seasonal Exhibits, Prices and Access

“Mori Building Digital Art Museum: EPSON teamLab Borderless” at Azabudai Hills in Tokyo is a permanent digital art museum created by Mori Building and the art collective teamLab. Billed as a “museum without a map,” where works leave their rooms, move around and interact with other works, it shows more than 70 groups of works. On Friday, July 31, 2026, its visitor count passed 4 million. Opening hours are 8:30 to 21:00, and tickets require advance reservation for a specific date and time. Some works end their run on November 7.

4 million visitors, about 70% from overseas

Its predecessor was the museum of the same name in Odaiba, open from June 21, 2018 to August 31, 2022. According to Mori Building, the Odaiba museum drew about 2.3 million visitors from more than 160 countries and regions in its first year. The museum reopened at Azabudai Hills on February 9, 2024, and in February 2025, on its first anniversary, it announced a ticket sell-out rate of 98% and 1.55 million visitors.

On Thursday, February 12, 2026, it reported more than 3.24 million visitors in two years, and on Friday, July 31 of the same year it reached 4 million. According to teamLab’s August announcement, visitors have come from more than 185 countries and regions, and about 70% are from overseas. Visitors from distant countries such as the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and Germany account for about half. About one in 12 travelers from the United States and about one in nine from Australia who visited Japan between February 2024 and June 2026 reportedly came to the museum. It was also named one of TIME magazine’s “World’s Greatest Places 2024.”

What can be seen? Works scheduled to end on November 7 and autumn seasonal exhibits

The official website marked five works as “Ending soon, until 11.07”: “Black Waves: Frozen Transparency,” “Continuous Trajectories: Frozen Transparency,” “The Way of the Sea: Frozen Transparency,” “Frozen Transparent Life” and “Flutter of Butterflies Beyond Borders: The Contours of Existence Appear at the Moment of Death.” They were scheduled to be on view until November 7.

The seasonal exhibits are “Memory of Topography” (September to November) and “Ever Blossoming Life - A Whole Year per Year” (October). “Memory of Topography” depicts memories of a mountain village landscape in a space with differences in height; rice that sprouts in spring grows in summer and turns golden in autumn. The flowers of “Ever Blossoming Life” change with the seasons and scatter when people touch them.

On Wednesday, July 8, 2026, the work space of “Light Sculpture - Flow” reopened, presenting the new series “Asymmetric Existence” and “Chromatic Existence.” According to the July announcement, the special exhibition showing them, “On the Asymmetry of the Universe,” was scheduled to run until Thursday, October 8. At the adjoining “teamLab Sketch Factory,” drawings of sea creatures made in the museum can be turned into can badges or T-shirts.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a visit take? Is there a map of the museum?

There is no time limit once you enter. In keeping with the concept of a “museum without a map,” no pamphlet (museum map) is provided. There are two rest areas inside.

Children of elementary school age and younger must be accompanied by a guardian aged 18 or over, with one guardian required for every five children, including those 3 and under. Strollers cannot be taken inside; use the large luggage storage area. There is no nursing room in the museum; use the nursing rooms in Azabudai Hills.

Can I take photos? Can I re-enter?

Taking photos and videos and posting them on social media is allowed. Auxiliary equipment such as monopods, tripods and selfie sticks, flash photography and commercial photography without prior permission are prohibited. Re-entry is not permitted. There is no restaurant or café inside, but there are vending machines and “EN TEA HOUSE Genkatei,” where you can drink tea.

It is closed on Tuesday, October 20. teamLab venues around Japan, including teamLab Planets in Toyosu, are compared in our guide to teamLab venues. Christmas events at Azabudai Hills are introduced in our Roppongi and Azabudai Christmas feature.

Editor’s perspective

With about 70% of visitors coming from overseas, and about one in 12 travelers from the United States reportedly visiting, the figures show that the museum has become one of Tokyo’s tourist destinations. Given the 98% ticket sell-out rate at its first anniversary, visitors from within Japan, too, would be wise to fix their dates and book early.

The museum provides no map because it assumes visitors will wander, explore and make discoveries among the works. At the same time, some exhibits run for limited periods, such as the works scheduled to end on November 7 and the monthly seasonal exhibits. Before visiting, check the official website to see what is on view.
