See how Tenga squeezed its way onto the adult-product scene in Japan.
What to expect
On the third-floor gallery space in Harakado in Harajuku, you’ll discover the inspiration behind the Tenga brand and what led the creator, Koichi Matsumoto, to start the business 20 years ago. Get insights into the challenges that arose, as well as early prototypes and design sketches (shown in Japan for the first time).
Note: The exhibition will close at 6 p.m. on the last day.
While you’re in Harakado, why not celebrate the 20th anniversary fittingly by visiting TENGA LAND, or if you’re not in the country, try the online Tenga store for customers in the US and Canada, or the special online Tenga shop for customers in the EU and UK.
