Grand Wish Christmas

Free
Hotel Options

Christmas may not be a public holiday in Japan, but Grand Front Osaka celebrates like it absolutely is.

What happens?

The centerpiece, the Winter Prism Tree, stands 11 meters tall beneath a 70-meter “veil of light” inspired by the northern lights. Every 15 minutes, the space erupts in a colorful light show set to original music, filling the atrium with shifting hues.

Schedule 2025

The light show begins at 4 p.m. on weekdays and a little earlier — from 3 p.m. on weekends and holidays — with lights continuing until midnight each night. You’ll find the display at Grand Front Osaka, in the North Building’s first-floor Knowledge Plaza.

Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
