DMO GATEWAY Takanawa & Shinagawa is a consortium of venues, hotels, restaurants, and amusement facilities catering to MICE.

Takanawa and Shinagawa areas are centrally located in Tokyo, benefiting from their proximity to Haneda Airport. Additionally, a Shinkansen (bullet train) station is in this area, providing excellent access to western Japan as well.

In March of this year, a vast urban development called Takanawa Gateway City opened in our area. This large-scale project spans 9.5 hectares and includes a complex of office buildings, commercial facilities, conference centers, and cultural experience venues. Cutting-edge technologies play a crucial role in facilitating mobility and achieving sustainability in the city.

Not only does the new city enhance our offerings, but our area also boasts facilities with a history of hosting international MICE events. These include venues with traditional Japanese gardens, hotel complexes featuring 5,000 guest rooms and over 2,000 sq.m of banquet space, as well as Yakatabune, traditional Japanese dining cruises. Together, these offerings will make your experience in our city truly unforgettable.

This is just a glimpse of what we have to offer. We invite you to visit our booth.

Let's explore our city together!
