About this event

Tokyo Midtown's main illumination, repeating a roughly four-minute show of bubbles and snowy light drifting over the garden. Set to original music, it depicts three scenes: a snowy forest at night, Christmas Eve, and a clear winter sky with an aurora. THE DREAMING TREE, a live tree about 8.5 m tall, lights up at the same hours. The bubbles end on December 20, so Kyochika recommends going at least once before then to take in the show with its music.
