How to find it

Enter through the 1F Lashinbang entrance and take the elevator or stairs to 4F; the pop-up space shares the floor with the Astop rental-showcase room of glass cases.

Tips

  • Not a permanent shop but a limited-run pop-up space, so the titles on sale change with each event; check the schedule on the official site (culpop.astop.co.jp) before going.
  • Besides exhibitions and merch sales it hosts signing sessions, handshake events and cosplay events.
  • It adjoins the Astop rental showcase on the same 4F, so you can see both in one stop; Astop closes at 20:30, Culpop at 20:00.
  • A second Culpop opened in 2026 inside Akihabara Radio Center (Sotokanda 1-14-2, 2F), so check which branch an event is at.
