Tokyo Dome City

This is one of Tokyo’s glitziest illuminations, with many areas around Tokyo Dome City decked out with twinkling lights. The 21st edition of the ‘Snow Dome City’ illuminations is its largest yet, featuring roughly 1 million LEDs that bathe the area in festive cheer. Continuing from last year, the event showcases a special design inspired by snow globes – or ‘snow domes’, as they are commonly called in Japanese. Expect to see a huge 15-metre-tall tree adorned with over 250,000 multi-coloured LEDs at the Central Park Lawn Square. Be sure to hang around, as every 15 minutes, a dazzling light and bubble performance transforms the space into a magical, snow globe-like wonderland. Over at the LaQua garden, don’t miss the giant snow globe containing a miniature diorama of Tokyo Dome City. Ring the bell to illuminate the globe and watch the scene shift into a winter wonderland. Meanwhile, the Thunder Dolphin passage on LaQua’s second floor features a dazzling 'Sparkle Tunnel', lined with glowing orbs, sparkling Christmas ornaments, snowflakes and shimmering mini LEDs.
