‘Hatsune Miku Lights Tokyo’ Debuts
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has been presenting year-round projection-mapping displays on the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, using light and sound to showcase a wide range of artistic expressions as part of its efforts to create new nighttime tourism attractions in Tokyo.
On Saturday, 25 July, ‘Hatsune Miku Lights Tokyo’, featuring the globally beloved virtual singer Hatsune Miku, held its first screening.
The work brought the world of the popular song “M@GICAL☆CURE! LOVE ♥ SHOT!” to life across the entire façade of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.
Since its launch in February 2024, ‘Tokyo Night and Light’ has welcomed visitors from Japan and around the world, with total attendance surpassing 1.55 million.
As one of Tokyo’s emerging landmark attractions, the project continues to captivate audiences through its combination of artistic excellence, cutting-edge technology and world-class content.
We look forward to your continued interest and support.
