🚆 How to Get to the Expo 2025 Venue (Yumeshima, Osaka)
So—you’ve got your ticket to Expo 2025 in Osaka. Now the big question:
How do you actually get there?
The venue is located on Yumeshima (夢洲), an artificial island in Osaka Bay, and access has been improving in preparation for the event.
Here’s how to get there smoothly!
📍 Where is the Expo 2025 venue?
- 🗺️ Location: Yumeshima Island, Konohana Ward, Osaka City
- 📌 This is a newly developed area made specifically for Expo 2025
- 🚧 Note: It’s not the same as Expo ’70 Park in Suita—don’t mix them up!
🚇 By Train (Most Recommended)
The easiest way will be via the Osaka Metro Chūō Line, which is being extended to reach Yumeshima.
🚉 New Station (Opening Before Expo):

🔁 Transfer Example:
- From Osaka Station or Umeda:
Take the JR Loop Line → Transfer to Osaka Metro Chūō Line
→ Get off at Yumeshima Station
Estimated travel time: 30–45 minutes from central Osaka (depending on crowd level)

These are ideal for those unfamiliar with transfers or carrying luggage.
🚖 By Taxi

🚨 Don’t Confuse These Two!
Expo 2025 Venue vs. Expo ’70 Commemorative Park
If you’re planning your first visit to Expo 2025 in Osaka, here’s something really important you should know:
The Expo 2025 venue and Expo ’70 Commemorative Park are two completely different places!
It’s a common mistake—especially for first-time visitors or international guests.
Let me break it down for you:
🏝️ Expo 2025 – The Current World Expo
- 📍 Location: Yumeshima Island (夢洲), Konohana Ward, Osaka
- 🗓️ Date: April 13 – October 13, 2025
- 🚉 Nearest Station: To be announced closer to opening, likely served by Osaka Metro Chūō Line extension
This is where the upcoming international event is happening—featuring futuristic pavilions, global innovation, and millions of expected visitors.
🌳 Expo ’70 Commemorative Park – A Great Park, But Not the Expo Site
- 📍 Location: Suita City, Osaka Prefecture
- 🗓️ Originally: Site of Expo 1970 (the first World Expo in Japan)
- 🚉 Nearest Station: Bampaku-Kinen-Kōen Station on the Osaka Monorail
This is a beautiful, spacious park known for the Tower of the Sun and seasonal flowers, but it’s not the site of Expo 2025.
❓Why People Get Confused
- Both locations have “Expo” in their names
- Some travel apps and ticket booking sites may recommend the wrong destination
- The Expo ’70 Park is still very active and popular—so it often comes up in search results
✅ How to Avoid the Mistake
- Search specifically for “Expo 2025 Yumeshima”
- Use official sources or the Expo 2025 website for directions
- If taking a taxi or asking for help in Japanese, say: “Yumeshima no Banpaku kaijou e ikitai desu” (I want to go to the Expo venue at Yumeshima)
Let’s enjoy the Expo!
