Traveler note
The 41st edition lights the zelkova trees along Jozenji-dori with the theme “A New Step”. Use the 2026 dates and lighting hours above; the nearby Christmas Market has its own schedule and entry conditions. The organiser recommends public transport because the area becomes crowded and prohibits drone flights. Check current traffic and visitor notices before travelling. The September 2022 daytime avenue photograph is a venue archive, not the 2026 illumination or current street conditions.
