Featured Events in Sapporo in January, 2025 (June Updated)

The Sapporo White Illumination is Japan's first illumination event, which began in 1981 (Showa 56), adding color to Sapporo in winter. At the Odori venue, symbolic objects of various sizes will sparkle like light art. At the Ekimaedori venue, the Minami-ichi-dori venue, and the Sapporo Kitasanjo Square (Akapla) venue, standing trees are decorated with light bulbs, lighting up the city. A sound and light show will be held at the Sapporo Station South Exit Square venue.

"Yukitoro" is a fantastic light event that adds color to the winter season. With the snow valley and Jozankei Shrine as the backdrop, "Yukitoro" creates a fantastic space that can only be enjoyed in a calm atmosphere. Walking through the snow candle area, you will find a mysterious forest called "Prayer Forest" where light and images blend with nature. Experience the worldview of Jozankei Natural Illumination, whose theme is illumination created with nature, even in winter.
