Lighting up the night sky in Tokai City

The Winter Light Display in Otagawa event is held each winter at the event areas (Donden Plaza / Oyane Plaza) in front of Meitetsu Otagawa Station. The east and west of the station are unified in a magnificent illumination based on the theme of that year.
This year's them is "Stardust Stellar Symphony". An enormous Christmas tree stands in Oyane Plaza and the combination of its three-dimensional glimmer and the night sky's illumination make for a spectacular scene like stardust falling from the heavens. Welcome to a radiant show of light and sound.
In Donden Plaza, a new original photo spot is set up, letting you capture the moment on film.
