Profile

【Tokyu Bunkamura, Inc.】
Bunkamura’s focus is on creating the future through interaction with various cultures. As such it operates on three premises: as a “place for presentation” in its capacity as a hall, theater, movie theater, and art museum, creating and providing a range of quality cultural offerings across genres; as a “place for creation” to foster new culture so that all possibilities can be supported and encouraged; and as a “place for meeting” in pursuit of interactive culture designed to promote relations and exchange between people, the arts, and goods.
It also operates three cultural facilities, including Bunkamura in Shibuya, Tokyo, which opened in 1989 as Japan’s first large-scale multi-purpose cultural complex.
