If you've been looking for a place where you can see fine art, listen to an indie death metal band, buy some handmade crafts, and get some movie-quality scar makeup all under the same roof, now you can rest assured. 
Design Festival is a two-day art and design festival that takes place periodically at Tokyo Big Sight in Odaiba, Tokyo. To the festival's credit, it defines the terms "art" and "design" quite broadly, giving the event a true "there's something for everyone" ethos. Amateur and professional artists of all levels of success flock to the festival to display and sell their work, and attending the events is an event in itself. 
What can you see there? Actually, a better question would be "What can't you see there?" First, there are paintings and drawings. Lots and lots of paintings and drawings. Some are already finished, on display, and awaiting your assessment (or purchase). Others are works in progress. Large (sometimes gigantic) canvases and walls are set up so that festival-goers can see the artists hard at work. There are also handmade crafts, another broadly defined term that includes everything from jewelry and book covers to toys, metalwork, woodwork, musical instruments, dolls, household items, and even clothing. One section of the festival is the "Dark Room," reserved for artists whose work is best viewed in the shadows. These pieces are often abstract collections of illumination, paintings under blacklight, and more. 
Rock bands perform passionately. Dancers in costumes gyrate to the latest pop songs. In one corner, an SM-style bondage demonstration is taking place. Elsewhere, students studying film makeup and costumes are applying makeup for scars and wounds to customers. 
Just when you think you've seen all the exhibits, you suddenly realize there are two more huge halls. The design festival is massive, consisting of aisles of multiple rooms on multiple floors of the building. Plan to get there early and stay late if you want to see all the exhibits. 
There's a food court with a variety of food vendors offering both Japanese and international cuisine.

First step on: the experience is much better than the Sky Tower~ Whether it is the density of people, the degree of panoramic viewing, or the overall feeling of the indication signs of the key buildings is still very shocking, even for tourists like us from Beijing. The surrounding area is endless, and you can even see Mount Fuji when the weather is good. The security check is very strict, all things that will be blown can not be brought, and there are many security on the rooftop. Everyone must pay attention.

Overall the park was truely incredible~ but over capacity, I mean the attendance, amount of people there was insane. In a bad way haha ~ the park itself was great but the rides each ride was 2 hour plus wait. And some rides 3 hours so, it was awful haha I got 3 rides in the full day~ and the wait times were 45 minutes for popcorn so, let that sink in haha warning to anyone going there you must buy all fast pass or VIP

Trip.com This ticket cannot be refunded and changed, and the time is still so accurate. If there is an emergency or force majeure, it cannot be changed. Even when I first arrived in Japan, I had to reserve the time to find the way. I thought there would be no tickets during May 1st, so I bought it early. The actual situation is that there are still many more tickets on the first day. There is no need to buy so many days in advance, it is too inflexible. As for the park itself, the fun of interaction is less, and it is all about the knowledge related to film production. Unless it is a fan, it is meaningless to play.

It is worthy of being the highest building in Tokyo. The weather was very good when we went there. We waited in line for 10 minutes downstairs before going upstairs. From upstairs, we could see Mount Fuji in the distance and Tokyo Bay nearby sparkling in the sunlight.
