Tokyo Game Show Tickets

Tokyo Game Show Ticket Price

The ticket prices vary significantly between the Business (B2B) and Public (B2C) days. A B2B ticket costs around 11,000 Yen for two days, while a B2C ticket is 3,000 Yen for one day. Public days, however, tend to be much busier, with packed halls and longer lines.

About Tokyo Game Show Ticketing

TGS offers both invitation tickets (pre-registration) provided to exhibitors and paid tickets. Even if you receive an invitation ticket through a client or business partner, you must register your information on the official website for the ticket to be valid.

The pre-registration period usually starts about 10 days before the event. Even if you’re not directly involved in the gaming industry, the registration form includes various industry options (e.g., gaming students, marketing professionals, press, influencers, etc.) that you can check off. Note that you must sign up with an email address, and only one person can register per email account.

Check-In at TGS

Printing Your Ticket in Advance

Japan is known for its Omotenashi culture, which emphasizes personalized and attentive care. Despite the post-COVID environment, TGS continues to welcome guests in person. However, admission is processed through self-printed badges. If you forget to print your badge, don’t worry — there will be designated areas where you can print them on-site. While Japan’s analog culture may seem inconvenient at times, it’s worth taking it in stride and enjoying the experience.

Line for Check-In

Check-in is conducted at the Hall 2 entrance. Even if you arrive at 10 AM when the doors open, be prepared for long lines that may extend past several hall entrances. It’s a four-lane queue, so be ready to wait and plan accordingly.
