This is one of Tokyo’s glitziest illuminations, with many areas around Tokyo Dome City decked out with twinkling lights. To commemorate its 20th anniversary this winter, the event will feature 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 Crystal Avenue 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, you can pose for photos in a gigantic igloo-like snowflake dome. Once inside, you can operate a tablet to switch on the lights and take a picture. The Thunder Dolphin passage on the second floor of Laqua, on the other hand, will be lit up with illuminated orbs, shiny Christmas ornaments, snowflakes and shimmering mini LEDs.
