This map collects major winter illuminations across Japan for the 2026–27 season, from Sapporo to Okinawa. Every entry was checked against the organiser's official page, with dates, lighting hours, admission and the nearest station where published. Spots whose organisers have not announced the new season yet are marked "Not yet announced" without using last year's dates.
Dates, hours and prices can change, and events may be cancelled in bad weather. Always check the official page before visiting.

No. "Announced" entries are previews, and "Not yet announced" means the organiser has not published the new season yet.
Street illuminations are usually free, while parks and theme parks charge admission. Each entry shows the fee when the organiser publishes it.
Most events run from late November to Christmas, and some continue into February or later. Check each entry's dates.
