Mulled wine, twinkling stalls, nutcrackers and a Christmas pyramid — Tokyo Christmas Market brings a German-style holiday market to the city. In 2026 it's held at two venues: a brand-new site in Shin-Toyosu and a second site in Shiba Park. Here are the dates, ticket prices and how to get there.

Two venues in 2026

  • Shin-Toyosu: November 20 (Fri) – December 25 (Fri), 2026. 11:00–21:30 (first day from 16:00). Last entry 20:30, last order 21:00.
  • Shiba Park (Onarimon Station front plaza): December 4 (Fri) – December 25 (Fri), 2026. 11:00–22:00 (first day from 16:00). Last entry 21:00, last order 21:30.

Shin-Toyosu is a new venue this year. If you're visiting Tokyo in late November, it's the one to go to; from December 4, you can choose either.

The Shiba Park venue is centered on a Christmas pyramid about 14 meters tall, made in the tradition of Dresden, with Tokyo Tower in the background.

Ticket prices

Entry is paid. Prices are the same at both venues:

  • Until December 23 — adults (junior high school age and up): ¥1,000 on weekdays, ¥1,500 on weekends (and national holidays at Shin-Toyosu); elementary school children: ¥500
  • December 24 and 25 — adults: ¥2,000; elementary school children: ¥1,000
  • Preschool children: free

Advance tickets come with a souvenir mug, in a different design at each venue — a cute keepsake from your trip. With that mug, you only pay the drink price for hot drinks. Re-entry is allowed, and the organizers ask visitors to plan on staying around three hours.

What to enjoy

  • Glühwein (mulled wine) and other hot drinks, plus sweets
  • Christmas goods such as nutcrackers, ornaments and snow globes
  • The Christmas pyramid, the symbol of the market
  • Music on stage, street performances and workshops
