Akasaka Sacas 赤坂サカス

One of Tokyo's newest mini-cities, Akasaka Sacas is an exciting place to visit if you're a fan of media and entertainment. Following the successes of Fuji Television at Odaiba , TV Asahi at Roppongi Hills, and Nippon Television at Shiodome, the Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) decided to build its own "city within a city" for its headquarters.

Accessible by train.

Akasaka Sacas is directly connected to Akasaka Station along the Chiyoda Subway Line. From Shinjuku catch Marunouchi Subway Line to Kokkaigijido-mae Station and transfer to the Chiyoda Subway Line for Akasaka.

Akasaka Sacas is made up of five main buildings; the TBS headquarters, a residential high-rise, theater and performance spaces, and an office and retail building called Biz Tower.

Blitz Akasaka, a live venue, often showcases performances by local and international bands. Visit Akasaka Act Theater for peerless performances from professional theatrical troupes, but note that most performances are in Japanese.
