Sony Park | Ginza Sony Park

Open the Web Menu

Ginza Sony Park opened on August 9, 2018, as an ever-changing park experience in the heart of the city. Wanting to make even the process of reconstructing the 1966 Sony Building "uniquely Sony," the company embraced the incredibly innovative idea of turning the space into a park during the building's demolition.

Although the park is now under construction to open a new Ginza Sony Park, scheduled to be completed in 2024, Sony has set in motion a number of　experimental activities for the next phase.
