Venue pricing splits by entry time, not by a separate “sunset ticket”. Online purchase is typically ¥300 less than the 14F counter when slots remain.
| Band | Online | 14F counter |
|---|---|---|
| Enter by 14:59 (day band) | ¥2,700 | ¥3,000 |
| Enter from 15:00 (evening band) | ¥3,400 | ¥3,700 |
Best for clear sightlines and photos without crowds pressing the glass. On winter mornings you can sometimes see Mount Fuji from the roof — rare, but worth the earlier slot if weather cooperates. Standalone timed-entry tickets work well here because you are not racing sunset.
The most requested window. You watch the city shift from gold to blue hour in one visit. Book days ahead in peak season; the standalone ticket is fine if you only want the roof, but guided combos that end at the 14F gate can save you navigation stress on a first afternoon.
Tokyo as a light map — the Scramble Crossing glows, office towers stack into the distance. Indoor gallery stays open if weather closes the roof. Night-specific guided walks pair well if you want context before you go up.

Admission is timed-entry. Prices and availability are set by booking partners — confirm on Klook, GetYourGuide or Viator before you pay. For visits on or after 19 Nov 2026, Klook requires original passports for all guests at Sky entry (see Klook activity notes).
Occasionally, but popular sunset and weekend slots often sell out days ahead. If your visit is fixed, book in advance rather than assuming walk-up availability.
The open-air rooftop closes in rain, high wind or lightning. The indoor Sky Gallery remains open; tickets stay valid but are not automatically refunded.
The ticket gate is on 14F of Shibuya Scramble Square. From Shibuya Station, follow signs to Shibuya Scramble Square. The dedicated SHIBUYA SKY lift at the 1F Hikarie-side entrance runs to the 14F ticket gate — not the Sky Lobby in Shibuya Hikarie. Allow 10–15 minutes from the platform.
Arrive 10–15 minutes before your timed slot. Security and bag storage at the 14F entrance can add a short queue at peak hours.
Bags must be stored in free lockers at the 14F entrance before the rooftop. Large luggage is not allowed on the open deck.
