Mother Farm’s Illumination is Back and Better than Ever!

Starting from October 27th (Saturday), Mother Farm will be holding its 7th annual winter illumination, “Mother Farm: Field of Lights”

Starting last year, our illumination is now held in the “Mountain Top Area.” Located 300 meters above sea level, the venue offers a great view of the Tokyo skyline complete with a picturesque view of Mt. Fuji and Tokyo Bay.

This year’s event is filled with completely new concepts and designs! Compared to the cool blue lights of last year, this year’s event will feature fields of warm light with a handmade feel.

With an ever-expanding venue, this year’s illumination will showcase 800,000 lights!

Hop on Chiba’s highest Ferris Wheel with a peak elevation of 330m and enjoy the illuminated scenery from the air with someone special, ride the merry-go-round,  or warm up with a specialty All-you-can-eat meal from the “Farm Diner.” Check out the Night Time Park and warm up with Mother Farm this winter. ♡
