Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Kōen-higashiguchi Station is an elevated monorail station on the Osaka Monorail Saito Line in Senri Banpaku-Kōen, Suita, Osaka Prefecture, with station number 51. It opened on 1 October 1998 with the inaugural Banpaku-Kinen-Kōen – Handai-Byōin-Mae section of the Saito Line. The station was added late in the planning to support spectator transport to the Expo Memorial Stadium, then home of Gamba Osaka; today it sits next to that stadium and the team's current home, Suita City Football Stadium, which stands in the same Expo '70 Commemorative Park. Suita itself is in the Hokusetsu-Mishima district of northern Osaka Prefecture, attained city status in 1940, and is a designated Core City; among its other claims to fame, the Senri Newtown housing estate, Asahi Breweries' Suita brewery (descended from the Meiji-era Osaka Beer Suita brewery), and the former Suita classification yard all shaped its modern identity.

The former Expo '70 site is now Banpaku-Kinen-Kōen (Expo Memorial Park), home to the Tower of the Sun, Suita City Football Stadium, and the LaLaport EXPOCITY commercial complex.
