WAKAYAMA LIGHTS 2025
A light show with 500 drones
More than 500 drones, exceeding last year's 400, will create light art in the sky above Wakayama Castle. You might want to experience the nighttime festival woven by light, along with the nighttime view from the castle tower, which will extend its entrance hours after the drone show, and the illuminations in Wakayama Castle Park, "Wakayama Castle - Corridor of Light -".
