Adults with a pre-booked ticket get a mug whose color differs by site: blue “Ultramarine” for Shin-Toyosu and red “Kermes Red” for Shiba Park. The design stacks the 2 sites’ cups to form the shape of the Christmas pyramid (2026 mug notice, Japanese). With this cup you can buy hot drinks at the site for the price of the drink alone.

5. Mug and bring-in rules
At the Tokyo Christmas Market, a deposit is included in the price of a mug or glass and is paid at each stall together with the drink. You can take the used cup home, but then the deposit is not refunded. When you take the cup home, you return the stall-number coin to the site’s coin return box. Unused cups are sold at the information desk, and the cups can be used in a microwave.
The official FAQ also gives the following (FAQ, Japanese).
- Re-entry is allowed. The suggested stay is 3 hours in the official FAQ and 2 hours in the announcement by KKday, which sells the tickets.
- You cannot bring in food or drink other than what is sold on site.
- Non-alcoholic mulled wine, hot tea and hot cocoa are available.
- You can pay in cash or cashless, and cashless works at all food and goods stalls.
- Pets are allowed on a leash (not inside the tent in front of the stage).
- The site is non-smoking, and there is a separate smoking area.
6. Crowded days and rainy days at the Tokyo Christmas Market
The Tokyo Christmas Market may limit entry with same-day tickets when it is crowded, and recommends pre-booked tickets. Pre-booked tickets are sold in 30-minute slots, and if you arrive with a ticket for another time, people holding tickets for that slot go in first.
The market is held in the rain and may be cancelled in bad weather such as a typhoon, heavy rain or heavy snow. There are covered tent seats, but the number is limited.
Common questions
Can I go with children?
Yes. Elementary school children pay admission (¥500, or ¥1,000 on December 24 and 25), and children not yet in elementary school are free. Because the site gets crowded, the organizers ask you to keep an eye on your children.
Do I have to enter exactly at my pre-booked time?
Tickets are sold in 30-minute slots, and the organizers ask that you enter within your slot, for example from 13:00 to 13:30 with a 13:00 ticket. The official FAQ says that with a ticket for that day you can enter even if you are late, but people holding tickets for that slot go first. According to KKday, after purchase you show the e-ticket (QR code) at the pre-booking entrance on the booked date and time (KKday’s Shin-Toyosu product page, Japanese).
