Can you take a bag into SHIBUYA SKY?
What has to go in the locker
Anything you are carrying that is not attached to you. Handbags and backpacks, tripods, selfie sticks, hats that are not on tight, bottles and snacks. The reasoning is obvious once you are up there: the outer edge at the corner is open, and the wind is real.
How the lockers work
They sit on the 46th floor, next to the indoor SKY GALLERY, on the way up. You put in a ¥100 coin, take the key, and get the coin back when you open it again. Carry one ¥100 coin so you are not hunting for change with a booked slot ticking.
Cameras and phones
A phone is allowed in your hand and so is a camera with a strap around your neck or wrist. No tripod, no monopod, no selfie stick, which shapes what you can actually shoot up there — I have written the practical version on the best photo spots. Pockets matter more than usual, so read it alongside what to wear.
Frequently asked questions
Are lockers free at SHIBUYA SKY?
Effectively yes. The coin lockers on the 46th floor take a ¥100 coin and return it when you collect your things, so the storage costs nothing.
Can I bring food or drink to SHIBUYA SKY?
Not onto the open rooftop. Food and drink go into the 46th-floor lockers with your bag before you go up to the SKY STAGE.
Can I take a camera up?
Yes, with a strap. Tripods and selfie sticks are not allowed on the rooftop, so plan on handheld shots and allow the time for the corner queue — see how long a visit takes.
