We plan underground media across Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya in Japan. Once someone is inside the network they stay there for the whole journey, which is long enough to read a panel rather than glance at it. We book gates, platforms and carriages together. We check availability with the operator before you commit. Tell us the dates and the budget, and we will send a site list within 48 hours.

Underground Advertising in Japan reaches Japanese audiences on the routes they already use. Japan's OOH is defined by the density of Tokyo and Osaka. Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ginza and Umeda carry the landmark digital, while the JR East and JR West rail networks anchor commuter-scale reach nationwide.

Images below are for illustrative purposes only. They are not specific to one location.
Digital and static escalator panels on Japan's underground network give brands the closest thing outdoor has to a captive-screen moment on the ride between platform and street.
Escalator panel advertising in Japan is one of the few outdoor surfaces that can run a sequence. The ride is slow and the sightline is fixed, so a story can unfold between street and platform.
4, 6, 12, 16, 48 and 96-sheet posters across Japan's underground network cover platforms, tunnels and station corridors. The same commuters pass them every weekday.
Poster advertising in Japan scales from a 4-sheet in a corridor to a 96-sheet across the tracks. A single campaign can cover intimate station sites and landmark cross-track positions together.
A station domination in Japan is one journey: entrance, escalator, platform and gate, booked together at a flagship underground station.
Station domination in Japan makes the commute the campaign. Entrance, escalators, platforms and gates are planned as one sequence, so the station itself carries the brand.
Branded ticket-gate wraps and adjacent portrait screens across Japan's underground stations deliver first-and-last brand touchpoints on every journey.
Ticket gateway advertising in Japan sits on the start and end of every journey. Gate wraps and the screens beside them meet the same commuters twice a day, all week.

Most underground media campaigns in Japan run on two-week or monthly cycles. For real brand recall, three to six months of always-on presence tends to work best, especially on premium sites.
Yes. We handle site selection, local compliance and booking directly, so brands entering Japan for the first time can launch without a local team on the ground. Creative approvals, permits and production are managed under one team.
