• Soho House to open its first house in Japan

    14 June 2024

    Soho House, the global membership club for creative people, has announced plans to open its first House in Japan in 2026. Soho House Tokyo will be located in the Aoyama district – close to Omotesando – and provide a space for members who are connected to, or work in the creative industries to eat, drink and meet other creatives, as well as attend unique events.

    Soho House Tokyo will become the fourth Soho House in Asia, following Soho House Mumbai, Soho House Hong Kong and Soho House Bangkok opening in the past six years. Situated in an area known for its independent boutiques, vibrant fashion district and art galleries, it will be set across four floors and provide members with club space, a rooftop pool and terrace, 42 bedrooms, and event spaces.

    The interiors of the House will blend the beauty of Japanese minimalist design with the warm and comforting style of Soho House.

    Soho House has a strong connection with Tokyo and has been bringing together interesting, diverse Japanese creatives for the past eight years through our Cities Without Houses membership. We can’t wait to open our first House in Japan and welcome more of the incredible talent in the capital city to be part of our global membership community.’ Dominique Bellas, Membership Director, Cities Without Houses.

    Cities Without Houses (CWH) Japan is a membership for creative-minded individuals who want to access Soho Houses globally when they travel, as well as enjoy special events locally in Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and internationally. It is a unique membership that helps to make the Soho House community truly global and diverse, enabling creatives from all over the world to make meaningful connections with each other – even in cities where there is no physical Soho House. Upcoming CWH global events for members to join include: Milan Fashion Week, Dubai Design Week, Singapore Art Week and Frieze Seoul.

    With 43 Soho Houses around the world – in creative hubs like Paris, London, Berlin, New York and Los Angeles – CWH members are never far from a ‘home away from home’. The Houses offer members access to everything, from club spaces and bedrooms to gym and wellness amenities, Cowshed spas and screening rooms.

    Japan-based creatives who are interested in joining Soho House’s existing membership community in the city can apply for Cities Without Houses membership here.
