A city loved by people of all ages and with many different facets, Kyoto is the perfect place for us to propose a new night-time entertainment concept.
Rather than focusing on one performance, we have created a programme that allows you to choose from a variety of different performances, each with a different concept, depending on the time of day.

Before you know it, everyone, children and adults alike, is smiling. This is a performance that creates a sense of unity with the sound waves that is addictive.
◆Part 2 「夢」' Yume',starts at 9:00 p.m.
A night performance stage that allows you to immerse yourself in a fantasy world.
