The "Festival of the Lights in OSAKA," which beautifully and fantastically illuminates the night of Osaka.
One of its core programs is the "Osaka Hikari-Renaissance" held in the Nakanoshima area. Nakanoshima area is an island sandwiched between Dojima River and Tosabori River. There are buildings designated as important cultural properties of the country such as the Osaka City Central Public Hall and the Nakanoshima Library, which transmit the culture and art of Osaka.
The Nakanoshima area is wrapped in dazzling light, with the projection mapping of the Osaka City Central Public Hall, which is fascinating with its dynamic light production, and the Nakanoshima Illumination Street where the row of zelkova trees about 150m long shine in various colors.

Along with the Midosuji Illumination, this is one of Osaka’s two major year-end events. The Christmas vibes are really strong during the winter season.
The "Osaka Hikari-Renaissance" is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2022. It officially starts on December 14, but I got to see the projection mapping at Nakanoshima Public Hall a bit early! I just happened to pass by and was lucky enough to experience this magical world of lights.
It's one of the core programs of the "Festival of the Lights in OSAKA," which makes the whole city sparkle, including the Midosuji illuminations.
It's running until the 25th, so definitely check it out!
