Info
Tokyo Big Sight (東京ビッグサイト, Tōkyō biggu saito), officially known as Tokyo International Exhibition Center (東京国際展示場, Tōkyō kokusai tenjijō), is a convention and exhibition center in Tokyo, Japan, and the largest one in the country. Opened in April 1996, the center is located in Ariake Minami district of Tokyo Waterfront City (臨海副都心, Rinkai fukutoshin) on Tokyo Bay waterfront. Its most iconic feature is the visually distinctive Conference Tower. The name Tokyo Big Sight in Japanese eventually becomes the official name, and it also has become the name of the operator since April 2003.The center was a planned venue for the 2020 Summer Olympics hosting wrestling, fencing and taekwondo events, but cutting of public funds forced the organization committee to choose alternative addition to serving as the main broadcasting center and press center for the Games.
