Hatsune Miku will be collaborating with LIGHT UP NIPPON HOKKAIDO, Hokkaido’s yearly fireworks celebration to lift spirits and provide support from Japan’s earthquake disasters of 2011, and most recently the major eastern earthquake of 2018.
The event will take place at the National Takino Suzuran Hillside Park, south of the Sapporo prefecture region of Hokkaido. In this event, through use of the SONGLE smartphone app, attendees can enjoy synchronized images on their smartphones while enjoying the fireworks display! Special imagery will appear along with the fireworks and music, adding to the experience!
The main visual art for this collaboration was drawn by CHRIS, the same illustrator behind the Magical Mirai 2013 main visual artwork!
Tickets to attend the event are available via the official LIGHT UP NIPPON official website, which starts at 3240 Yen (or free for elementary school age children or younger). Tickets will be available until sold out!
