Mystery of Tutankhamen Immersive Exhibition Tickets

The Mystery of Tutankhamen brings the boy pharaoh to Yokohama as an immersive spectacle, wrapping visitors in floor to ceiling projections of tomb treasures, desert skies and the moment of discovery that electrified the world in 1922. Rather than glass cases, the exhibition works through scale reproductions, digital environments and narrative staging, an approach that suits families and newcomers to Egyptology far better than a silent museum hall.

Inside the experience

Galleries move from the splendour of the Eighteenth Dynasty through Howard Carter’s excavation to the tomb itself, with the famous funerary mask and burial goods recreated in meticulous detail and projection rooms that dissolve the walls into ancient Thebes. Interactive stations dig into mummification and hieroglyphs, and the storytelling leans into the enduring questions around the young king’s life and death. Photography is generally welcomed, a bonus over traditional antiquities shows.

Planning your visit

Immersive exhibitions of this kind run for limited seasons, so confirm dates and the current venue details when booking, and prefer timed weekday entries for elbow room. Allow around 90 minutes, and pair the visit with the Minato Mirai waterfront’s other attractions to fill the day.

Getting there

Yokohama’s exhibition venues cluster around the Minato Mirai district, reached from Yokohama Station in minutes on the Minatomirai Line, with through trains running direct from Shibuya via the Tokyu Toyoko Line. Your ticket will name the venue and closest station exit.
