What you need at Bandai Card Fest?


The Bandai Card Fest is a festival of cards... You might buy cards on your way there, but you might end up buying cards on your way back! That's why you'll have a lot of luggage...! So, make sure to bring a big bag!

Hotels Near BANDAI CARD FES 2025 sites


For many people, Tokyo Big Sight is a place they won't visit unless there're events like Comic Market or Anime Japan... In this section, we will explain the main transportation and nearby hotels that can be used on the day of Bandai Card Fest!

Trains


First, about trains, which is the most widely used transportation. There are three stations close to Tokyo Big Sight, the Bandai Card Fest venue: Kokusai Tenjijo Station, Tokyo Big Sight Station, and Ariake Station, and basically, you will use one of these three.



Kokusai Tenjijo Station (Yurikamome Line)
This is the station most people use when it comes to Bandai Card Fest, due to its easy access to the JR Yamanote Line, JR Keihin-Tohoku Line, JR Saikyo Line direct connections, JR Keiyo Line and the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line. If you are beginner, we recommend using Kokusai Tenjijo Station.

Ariake Station (Yurikamome)
It is one station close to Kokusai Tenjijo Station. If you exit the ticket gate and go in the direction of the left exit, 1A, 1B, you can go to Tokyo Big Sight and Symbol Promenade Park Flower Square.

Tokyo Big Sight Station (Yurikamome)
Station closest to Tokyo Big Sight (3-minute walk). You can reach Tokyo Big Sight by going to South Exit 2A or 2B.

Hotel around Comic Market Venue


We will introduce hotels around the venue.



The map and list above is a map of all the hotels in Ariake. Regarding hotel accommodation costs, the dates of Comic Market are during Japan's holiday period, and accommodation facilities prices are increasing all over the place. Therefore, the hotels listed above are particularly expensive due to their location, and even at the moment... If you want to save money, we recommend using a hotel or capsule hotel outside Ariake or an internet cafe (the closest one to the venue is Aplecio Urban Dock Lalaport Toyosu).
