GINZA SIX ぎんざしっくす

A department store with a Noh theatre in the basement and an art installation in the atrium.

Opened in 2017 on the site of the old Matsuzakaya, Ginza Six is the flagship of the new Ginza: two hundred and forty shops, a Tsutaya bookshop devoted to art, a rooftop garden with a shrine, and — unexpectedly — the Kanze school's Noh theatre in the basement. The atrium hangs a commissioned artwork that changes every year or so (Yayoi Kusama's pumpkins were the first). The basement food floor is the place to assemble a picnic for the rooftop.
