Technically, it's not in Tokyo. It's at the Lalaport shopping centre in Funabashi city, Chiba (prefecture), Japan. There are a number of different train stations nearby, including JR Funabashi station, on the Sobu line (local is yellow, semi-express line is blue). Change there for a (very slow but free) bus or get a taxi.

There are other stations, but they need a bus, or a 10 minute walk (the station near the Ikea being one of them).

Please be aware that this probably isn't a huge event. It's probably a small stage in the shopping centre with a few guest voice actors, Takara staff, a small display of toys and maybe a small giveaway of a legends figure to kids, or something like that.
