Enter a fantasy world filled with serene scenery where you are dropped into a Studio Ghibli movie set. Ghibli Park doesn’t host any rides or attractions; instead of an adrenaline rush assaulting the senses, you’ll wander through tranquil sets of many Ghibli movies and original conceptual townscapes. As you take a stroll through the park, let your inner child lead you from one exhibition to another. This is truly a park experience unlike any other and aims to build upon the success of Tokyo's Ghibli Musuem. You will be able to focus on each of your unique senses and interact with your creativity—and the nature around you—in a childlike way that will reintroduce you to the wonder in your heart.

Please note that you cannot re-enter an area once you leave (except for the Valley of Witches). However, from April 2025, guests with the Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Premium CAN re-enter areas (except for Ghibli's Grand Warehouse).

Ticket information

Ticket sales and information can be found on Ghibli Park's official website. Please note that there are different ticket options and processes for international and domestic guests. Advance tickets typically sell out very quickly. Sales begin on the 10th of each month at 2pm JST for entry two months later. For example, tickets for March are available from January 10 at 2pm.

Ticket information for international guests

Ticket options and prices for international visitors

You can purchase tickets through LAWSON TICKET or Klook. As of April 2025, there are two tickets available: Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Standard and Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Premium.

With the Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Standard, you can enter Ghibli's Grand Warehouse, Mononoke Village, and Valley of Witches. If you wish to enter Okino Residence, Howl's Castle and The House of Witches in Valley of Witches, you must purchase separate tickets on the day of your visit in the Valley of Witches (sales will end once the tickets sell out).

The Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Premium allows entry to all five areas and all buildings in Ghibli Park.

For both tickets, you must enter Ghibli's Grand Warehouse no later than an hour after your reservation time. The other areas do not have specified entry times. Upon entering, you may stay as long as you like, until closing.

Ticket information for domestic guests

Ticket options and prices for domestic visitors (in Japanese)

You can purchase tickets through Boo-Woo Ticket or through Loppi at LAWSON or MINISTOP throughout Japan.

In addition to the Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Standard and Ghibli Park O-Sanpo Day Pass Premium (the same rules above apply), domestic guests can also purchase area-specific tickets (Valley of Witches & Mononoke Village*, Ghibli's Grand Warehouse, Hill of Youth, and Dondoko Forest). These tickets are exceptionally cheaper; however, they do have time constraints with only morning (opening time–1pm) and afternoon (1pm–4:30pm) slots available.

*You must purchase separate tickets to enter Okino Residence, Howl's Castle and The House of Witches in Valley of Witches.

Highlights

Ghibli’s Grand Warehouse

More than three times the size of the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo, Ghibli's Grand Warehouse is a domed mini town that you can enjoy in any weather—complete with an exhibition room, playground, shops and restaurants, and exhibit warehouse.

Hill of Youth

The Hill of Youth has an observation tower that overlooks the park, reminiscent of the same tower from Laputa: Castle in the Sky, as well as the antique repair and resale shop from Whisper of the Heart.

Dondoko Forest

A Showa-era town, Dondoko Forest is surrounded by rich nature and draws elements of its exhibitions from My Neighbor Totoro. Visit Satsuki and Mei’s house and marvel at the tall Totoro figure in the center of the forest.

Mononoke Village

The Mononoke Village includes a life-size replica of Tatara-ba from the beloved Princess Mononoke film. The area also is populated by many of the mythical creatures from the movie, such as the tatari-gami and the boar god.

Valley of Witches

A mashup of scenery from both Howl’s Moving Castle and Kiki’s Delivery Service, the Valley of Witches is sure to be a magical place for you. Set in a European-themed village, this area of the park features a recreation of the bakery where Kiki lives and works along with a 16-meter-tall replica of the Calcifer-powered castle from Howl’s Moving Castle.
