What Tim Burton’s Labyrinth is—and what you will see
This is not a conventional exhibition with one corridor and numbered rooms. Visitors choose their own doors and follow one of many possible routes. The organisers advertise more than 150 combinations, so a standard visit will not reveal every room.
Lighting, sound, projections and scenery turn Burton’s sketches into theatrical environments. The featured worlds include The Nightmare Before Christmas, Beetlejuice, Corpse Bride, Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Think art-led experience rather than theme-park ride or studio-prop tour.
For serious fans, the main draw is the collection of hundreds of original drawings, sketches and other works from the director’s private archive. Some have not previously been shown publicly and will be presented in Japan for the first time. The sets, characters and costumes are film-based replicas rather than original screen-used props.
Tickets: General vs Premium and where to buy
Official tickets are sold through the exhibition website and Fever. A General Ticket covers one journey through the labyrinth. A Premium Ticket includes two consecutive routes, entry through an exclusive area and one limited-edition printed artwork per visitor.
The official page did not show a stable public price when this guide was checked, so any number elsewhere may become outdated. Avoid QR codes sold through social media or unofficial resellers. Sales are final and tickets cannot be refunded, changed or moved to another date, although they can be transferred to another person for free.
A venue box office is planned, but the organiser warns that your preferred session may sell out. Arrive at least 15 minutes early; late entry is not guaranteed. Your QR code can be shown in the Fever app or confirmation email, with no printout required.
How to reach CREVIA BASE Tokyo
The venue is at 6 Chome-4-25 Toyosu in Koto City. The closest station is Shijo-mae on the automated Yurikamome line, roughly a three-minute walk away. The line is convenient from Shimbashi and Odaiba and adds elevated views across Tokyo Bay.
From Tokyo Station, a practical route is JR to Shimbashi followed by Yurikamome to Shijo-mae. Allow time for the transfer inside Shimbashi rather than booking an admission slot immediately after your train arrival. The venue has no dedicated parking; nearby paid parking exists, but public transport is more predictable.

Visitor rules worth knowing before you go
- Photography of the original artworks is prohibited. Personal photos and videos are allowed elsewhere without flash.
- Some rooms use flashing or strobe effects, which matters for photosensitive visitors.
- Outside food and drinks are not allowed. Restrooms are available at the venue.
- There are no seats along the experience, so expect to stand and move for about an hour.
- Single strollers are allowed; double strollers are not. The organiser recommends a baby carrier for comfort.
- The venue is wheelchair accessible but does not loan wheelchairs. Documented service dogs are permitted.
- Children aged three and under need a free ticket and proof of age. Under-12s must stay with an adult.
Who will enjoy it—and is it suitable for children?
The exhibition goes beyond film fandom: its drawings and branching rooms also suit visitors interested in illustration, production design and immersive art. Knowing Burton’s films helps with the details, but watching every title in advance is unnecessary.
There is no formal age restriction. For children, consider the darkness, loud sound, unusual characters and lack of seating. An hour may feel long for preschoolers, while older children can enjoy choosing the doors. Premium can be worthwhile for two routes, but it also means roughly two hours on your feet.
A practical half-day Toyosu itinerary
Morning
Start at Toyosu Market or the waterfront. Do not assume the market keeps normal city café hours: several food businesses finish early.
Before entry
Keep 30–45 minutes for transport, a coffee and finding the entrance. Reach CREVIA BASE Tokyo 15 minutes before your slot.
60 minutes
Follow Tim Burton’s Labyrinth without a rigid checklist. Missing some rooms is part of the branching design.
Afterwards
Walk towards Toyosu Senkyaku Banrai or the waterfront. Avoid placing teamLab Planets immediately afterwards unless you actively want two immersive spaces back to back.
Evening
Continue to Odaiba or return along Yurikamome to Shimbashi. Use an AlpacaBag route if you want a different pace.
Before booking, compare flights to Tokyo, hotels in Toyosu and along Yurikamome, travel insurance and an eSIM. For a guide outside the exhibition, browse Tokyo tours.
