Throw launches, live shows and creator meetups under neon. Claim a plot anywhere in Tokyo, pick a building and a room — a conference hall, a café, a gallery, a pop-up market — brand it, and open the doors. People walk in, sit down, talk and present. Free.
Why Shibuya
Shibuya Crossing is the most filmed intersection on earth. For decades the neighbourhood around it has been where Japanese youth culture is invented — fashion in 109, music in its livehouses, trends on Center Gai — and broadcast to the rest of the country.
It’s the place for group campaigns, collab content and launches that need noise. If you want to be seen, start at the Scramble.
On CollaboTokyo, your event is a building on a real-feeling street. Guests walk in, see who’s there, grab a seat near the stage, slip off to a side table for a private call, and wander out into a district full of people who share the topic.
What Event hosts & community organisers come here to do
What people like you come to Shibuya to get done — and how the city helps.
A venue that feels like a place
Pick a pop-up, tent, container, glass pavilion, dome or machiya, then a room inside: meeting room, conference or lecture hall, café, coworking, gallery or market.
Get the right people to show up
Host in the district where your topic lives, so people already exploring it walk past your sign. Share a link that previews beautifully and remind guests before you start.
Run the show smoothly
Add your team as admins or staff, put slides on the main stage, run a built-in video call and open side rooms for breakouts.
Keep the community going after
Guests become contacts. Your spot’s open chat and forum keep the conversation alive until the next one.
