TOKYO SKYTREE is set to host its first-ever collaboration with the TV anime Blue Lock (original story by Muneyuki Kaneshiro, art by Yusuke Nomura). Running from April 9 (Thursday) to July 6 (Monday), 2026, the event is titled "BLUE LOCK EPISODE SKY in TOKYO SKYTREE."
The collaboration centers on the Tembo Galleria at 450 meters above ground, which will feature exhibition decorations and character photo spots using the event's exclusive key visual. Event-limited merchandise and café menu items — available only at TOKYO SKYTREE — will also be on sale throughout the period.
A novelty-included observatory admission ticket is planned, bundling a TOKYO SKYTREE ticket (Tembo Deck + Tembo Galleria) with an event-exclusive illustrated bromide — making it a must for fans looking to commemorate the visit.
Additional highlights include a special video screening at the "SKYTREE ROUND THEATER®" on Tembo Deck Floor 350, where the floor-to-ceiling windows serve as a giant screen, as well as special lighting inspired by the characters of Blue Lock.
