The lighting show that will be held in the evening during the event period will feature a floating staircase and mysterious footprints that will pass through the staircase and other fantastic effects.

Also, a gorgeous photo frame will appear in front of the tree. Visitors can take a memorable photo in front of the glowing tree.

Umekita Plaza “Champagne Gold Illumination

The “Champagne Gold Illumination” will be held around Umekita Plaza in front of JR Osaka Station, along the Yakeyaki-Namiki trees and on the west sidewalk of the North Building. In 2022, 16 of the illuminated trees will be decorated with special “Harry Potter” motifs. Each tree is decorated differently, so it is recommended to enjoy a walk while looking for the “Harry Potter” motifs.
