teamLab tickets: Planets vs Borderless, and how to book before they sell out

In short: teamLab’s two Tokyo digital-art museums are timed entry and sell out weeks ahead — sunset and weekend slots go first. Planets (Toyosu) is the barefoot, water-and-light one most people mean; Borderless (Azabudai Hills) is the bigger, maze-like one. Book the bare timed-entry ticket on Klook, an authorised reseller, 2–4 weeks out.

Planets or Borderless — which should you book?

If you only do one and you’re short on time, most first-timers pick Planets: it’s a guided one-way route, you go barefoot through ankle-deep water and the famous mirror-and-light rooms, and it takes about 60–90 minutes. Borderless has no map and no set path — you wander and let the art move between rooms — which is magical but takes longer and overwhelms some people. Plenty of art lovers do both on different days.

Book teamLab tickets

GetYourGuide carries teamLab as part of guided city bundles, but for the plain timed-entry ticket the cleanest route is Klook, which lists both museums directly.

Insider tip

Pick a weekday morning slot if you can — weekends and the sunset hour sell out first and are the most crowded. At Planets, wear or bring shorts: you’ll be wading through water, and the floor is mirrored.

Prefer a guided visit?

If you’d rather have teamLab folded into a wider Tokyo tour with a guide handling the logistics, browse the guided options — otherwise the direct ticket above is all you need.

Frequently asked questions

Do teamLab tickets sell out?

Yes. Both Planets and Borderless are timed-entry with capped numbers, and popular slots — weekends, evenings and the sunset hour — routinely sell out one to two weeks ahead, more in peak season. Book your slot 2–4 weeks out to get the time you want.

Is teamLab Planets or Borderless better?

Planets is shorter, guided one-way, barefoot through water, and easier to fit into a busy day. Borderless is larger, has no fixed route, and rewards wandering but takes longer. First-timers short on time usually pick Planets; art lovers often do both.

Where should I buy teamLab tickets?

For the plain timed-entry ticket, Klook is a clean, English-language option and an authorised reseller for Borderless. GetYourGuide carries teamLab inside guided city bundles if you’d rather have a guide. Either way, book ahead — on-the-day tickets are rarely available.
