Welcome to PARKY: Shibuya’s New Outdoor Community Space

On April 15, 2026, a remarkable transformation will take place in Shibuya, with the opening of PARKY, a unique outdoor community space designed for the urban crowd. Developed by PLAY WORK GROUND in collaboration with Tokyu Land Corporation, this urban park will provide a refreshing environment where people can gather, work, relax, and create connections under the open sky.

A Haven for Shibuya's Workforce

PARKY is situated on a revamped parking lot in the heart of Shibuya, specifically at Dogenzaka. It offers a blend of outdoor and container-based architecture, creating a unique open-air park. This space is not just about aesthetics; it aims to seamlessly connect the experiences of working, resting, and gathering, fostering new interactions among the busy professionals of Shibuya.

Exciting Offerings at PARKY

1. PARK BBQ: Experience authentic BBQ under the open sky. With no hassles of preparation or cleanup, visitors can enjoy meticulously selected meats and vegetables cooked on professional BBQ grills. The venue also features over 30 beverages, including craft beers, making it an ideal setting for networking and socializing among Shibuya's workforce.

2. OPEN HOURS: Collaborating with the recently opened craft beer and sausage restaurant, “HOURS,” PARKY will feature an inviting beer garden on the rooftop. This will provide a serene escape for after-work relaxation, offering specially curated craft beers in a chill atmosphere.

3. WORK at PARKY: The open container spaces equipped with Wi-Fi serve as ideal rental venues for meetings, workshops, small parties, and commercial shoots. These unique spaces aim to create fresh opportunities for collaboration and innovation in a different environment, fostering startup meetups and pop-up events.

4. CHURROS & COFFEE: PARKY will also feature a café that serves a variety of churros, from classic cinnamon to unusual flavors, alongside specialty coffee. This inviting café aims to be a casual spot reminiscent of a park, where residents can enjoy their day-to-day coffee breaks.

It's perfect for various functions, including startup pitch events, product launches, music performances, and even casual wedding parties.
