The 80th anniversary event "Magazine House Expo: From Ginza to the World" is based on the concept of "From Ginza to the World".
This special exhibition is a collaboration between Ginza Sony Park, a "park in the city," and Magazine House, a company with an 80-year history, and allows visitors to experience the past, present, and future of magazine culture.
The exhibition will be presented as a space where visitors can experience the worldview of Magazine House's diverse magazines, including "anan," "POPEYE," and "BRUTUS," with all five senses, and will offer an experience that goes beyond a simple retrospective, allowing visitors to participate, enjoy, and feel a sense of anticipation for the future. We aim to become a place that will launch a new movement from Ginza to the Japanese and global cultural scenes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u25a0 Magazine House's thoughts on its 80th anniversary<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In areas such as fashion, culture, wellness, and lifestyle, the company is always proposing values that are half a step ahead, catering to the endless curiosity of its readers and offering hints for a richer life.

\u25a0 About Ginza Sony Park<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Ginza Sony Park is a "park in the city" located on a corner of Sukiyabashi Crossing in Ginza, Tokyo. A park is essentially a place where people can freely interact and new experiences are born, precisely because it has spaces with no set usage. By designing this "space," Ginza Sony Park has become a public space that visitors can use freely, giving rise to new "activities." This also inherits the concept of a "facility open to the city" that has been cherished by the Sony Building.<\/p>\n

The distinctive architecture, with four basement floors and five above ground, is intentionally kept to about half the height of a standard building in Ginza, bringing a sense of spaciousness and rhythm to the city. Three sides of the ground floor are open to the street, and it is directly connected to the subway and underground parking lot. Furthermore, the large atrium structure and vertical promenade that stretch from the first basement floor to the second above ground floor create a seamless connection with the city, giving it a more urban and three-dimensional feel.<\/p>\n

Ginza Sony Park does not have any permanent tenants, but instead utilizes the space to develop a variety of activities. On the B3 floor, casual dining based on Western cuisine, "1\/2 (Nibun no Ichi)," offers new experiences through food.<\/p>\n

Ginza Sony Park was born by redefining the urban park, and its open spaces and activities continue to create new rhythms for the city and its people.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
