Ginza Six, Tokyo

Ginza Six, Tokyo

Ginza Six stands as a high-end shopping center situated in the Ginza district of Tokyo. Its name, "Ginza Six" or "G Six," is derived from its location at Ginza 6-chome and the aspiration to deliver an outstanding "six-star" shopping experience.

The complex was constructed on the site of the former Matsuzakaya department store, which marked the inception of department stores in Ginza. It was officially inaugurated on April 17, 2017, in a ceremony attended by notable figures such as Prime Minister of Japan Shinzo Abe and Governor of Tokyo Yuriko Koike. It boasts the largest retail space in the Ginza area.

With room for up to 241 stores, including flagship outlets for renowned brands like Fendi, Kenzo, Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen, Yves Saint Laurent, and Van Cleef & Arpels, Ginza Six caters to the discerning shopper. Additionally, the complex encompasses six floors of office space (floors 7 to 12), 24 restaurants and cafes, a banquet hall, a 480-seat Noh theater, and a 4,000 square-meter rooftop garden.

Ginza Six features an art program curated by Fumio Nanjo of the Mori Art Museum, with a strong focus on contemporary Japanese art. Inaugural exhibitions included works by prominent artists such as Yayoi Kusama and Patrick Blanc, among others.
