How to reach Kuromon Market?

There are two options below; bus and subway.

  • Option 1: We have prepared 10 buses to take 450 participants from abroad to the Kuromon market from the conference venue. Please come to the ground floor of the conference venue just after the last session of the day, 25 March. Toward the main stage (described with star icon in the map) from the bus stop, please walk east for one block and cross south at a pedestrian crossing.
  • Option 2: We also recommend to use the local subway that has direct connection to the closest station to Kuromon market, Nippombashi Station, from Awaza Station. Then, please walk to the main stage. Since the number of buses is limited, we would ask participants living in Japan to come the market by themselves using subway or other ways.
