YUKINOWA Asahikawa
A City Connected by Snow and Light
Artistic Brilliance Gracing Heiwadori Shopping Park from JR Asahikawa Station
About 230,000 lights illuminate Asahikawa in winter. This enchanting illumination event harmonizes snow and light, creating a mystical atmosphere that brings the city and its people together.
As a signature winter festival in Asahikawa, vivid LEDs transform the city, centered around Heiwadori Shopping Park, Japan’s first permanent pedestrian-only street. Walking through the gentle arches of light at the 7-jo Midoridori, you will find yourself wrapped in a warm glow that cuts through the crisp, chilly air. At the Tokiwa Rotary, the "Rondo of Blue Light" shimmering against the snow offers a breathtaking visual experience.
In the midwinter silence of Asahikawa, the sound of your footsteps echoes through the tranquil air. The illuminations, dusted with snow, sparkle like precious gems. With 30 years of history, this event has been reborn as "YUKINOWA Asahikawa," transcending a simple light display to weave together the city’s past and future. Experience the art of the snow country on a freezing night. Hold hands with your loved ones and enjoy the warm connections formed within these circles of light.
