The Japan e-Lantern Association will hold the "LED Lantern Release Experience" at Odaiba Marine Park on two days: Saturday, May 9, 2026, and Saturday, June 6, 2026.

The Japan e-Lantern Association uses products from [Rantan-ya], which are also adopted in TV commercials and events hosted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.

Rantan-ya's lanterns use LEDs instead of fire.

They are designed to be retrieved with a string, ensuring both safety and environmental consideration.

Unlike lanterns made only of balloon material, they are characterized by the soft light that spreads through Japanese paper.

The "paper-made" lanterns, familiar to the Japanese sensibility, are somewhat nostalgic and provide a light that soothes the hearts of those who see them.

From a momentary impression to a lifelong memory

What we want to deliver is not just the experience of floating lanterns.

It's the time spent feeling the sea breeze of Odaiba, thinking of loved ones, and looking up at the sky together with wishes.

We aim to give shape to that "irreplaceable moment."

Soft lights spread across the night sky, creating a scene where everyone's thoughts overlap.

Please come and experience this special space where the Odaiba night view and the light of the lanterns merge, stepping away from daily life for a while.

That sight will surely become the best memory that remains in your heart forever.
