Admission Information
●Individual Visitors
All participants have to leave the Learning Theater after each program. To ensure the best learning environment for the limited space, please reserve seats in advance for a specific date and time, according to the screening schedule. Although walk-in entrance is possible, the paid zone has limited capacity for each session, and as it can be full, we recommend reserving and paying in advance.
●Group Visitors
Admission capacity is limited, so we ask group visitors to make advance reservations. It is also possible to book the museum for exclusive use. We can provide a program that meets the objectives of your itinerary or training plan, so please reach out to us.
