Dover Street Market Ginza
6 Chome-9-5 Ginza, Tokyo, Japan, 104-0061
Dover Street Market Ginza, the Japanese outpost of the iconic London store, feels more like an art gallery than a retail space. Curated by fashion visionary Rei Kawakubo, it features high-end clothing, urban streetwear, jewelry, accessories, books, and more, spread over seven floors, creating a unique shopping space that blends art and style.
The basics
Dover Street Market Ginza's vast layout invites visitors to spend a few hours exploring. Start on the first floor with accessories such as bags and jewelry, then move up to shoes and menswear. The third and fourth floors feature a range of designers, while the fifth showcases well-known brands such as Balenciaga and Prada. On the sixth, find popular names including Nike and Aesop, before relaxing at the café and bookshop on the seventh floor.
Things to know before you go
Dover Street Market Ginza has elevators and wide aisles, making it wheelchair accessible.
The Rose Bakery Ginza on the top floor offers light bites (such as soups, salads, pancakes, sandwiches and cakes) as well as hot drinks.
There’s always something new at the store, with one-off collaborations and constantly rotating designers.
Don’t miss the rooftop garden, which includes a shrine—a great spot to take a break from shopping.
How to get there
The easiest way to get to Dover Street Market Ginza is by taking public transportation. This trendy area of Tokyo is well-served by multiple lines—including the Ginza, Marunouchi, and Hibiya lines. From Ginza Station, the store is less than a 5-minute walk away. Another possibility is Yurakucho Station, around a 10-minute walk away, and served by the Keihin-Tohoku, Yurakucho, and Yamanote lines.
When to get there
The store is typically open daily—usually from late morning to mid–evening. It tends to be busiest on the weekends, so it’s a good idea to come on a weekday morning for a more peaceful shopping experience. It’s also worth checking the website for up-to-date information on the new installation spaces and designers.

If you’ve worked up an appetite after roaming from floor to floor, there are plenty of great food options nearby.
