About this event

Held in Kakuda City, Miyagi Prefecture, "Space Christmas & Kakuda City Space Tower Illumination & Rocket Light-Up" is a special Christmas event unique to Kakuda, the city of rockets. The interior and exterior of Kakuda City Space Tower / Cosmo House and Taiyama Park are decorated with illuminations, and a full-scale model of the H-II rocket, approximately 49m tall, will be illuminated. On December 6, as part of "Space Christmas," many events for children are prepared, including rock-paper-scissors tournaments against space aliens. Admission is free on this day. The illumination and rocket light-up will run through December 27, and the contrast of the white rocket standing out against the dark park is a must-see spectacle found nowhere else in Japan. On the event day of December 6, it will be open from 13:00 to 19:00, with final admission at 18:30. The illumination and rocket light-up can be enjoyed from 17:00 to 20:00. Admission is free, but only on December 6. Since the park gate closes at 17:00, visitors arriving after 17:00 must use the multipurpose ground parking lot or the parking lot next to the gateball ground.
