Venue : Kanazawa Castle When : Sep 30th - Nov 26th 2023, 6:00pm - 9:30pm

TeamLab is a renowned digital art collective that merges technology, art, and nature to create immersive experiences, and they have both temporary and permanent installations at various destinations across Japan. This autumn, a limited-time exhibit will be headed to Ishikawa Prefecture – the TeamLab Kanazawa Castle Light Festival.

Held at the Kanazawa Castle Park, the event is set to include projection mapping of plants and animals on the walls of Kanazawa Castle and Gojukken Nagaya (a historic structure which was once used as a weapons warehouse), plus other interactive displays which are influenced by wind, rain, and even people's touch.
