Tokyo Dome City

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.
