Past highlights have included immersive color-drenched landscapes, artist‑designed playgrounds, and forest‑school workshops under the trees. Alongside the large‑scale art, you’ll find talks, hands‑on workshops, and pop‑up events that invite you to see everyday life through a designer’s lens.

In 2025, the newly rebranded Tokyo Midtown Design Live has a sharper focus on exhibitions that explore how design transforms the everyday. Under creative director Taku Satoh, expect a mix of works from leading Japanese and international creators, plus striking outdoor installations and interactive events.

Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
