This amazing two day event in Nangoku has two faces–day and night–offering something for everyone. Whether you want art, music, good food, dancing, or just like seeing things burn, you don’t want to miss Candle Night.
An event for everyone
First of all, what will the event be like? Well just head over to the event homepage to take a look at the pictures.
Looks beautiful, right? The candle creator is called Mow Candles, and he has been making a variety of candles since 2007. Since then, he has been adding the magic of candlelight to events all around Kochi, Japan.
Candle Night is an event to showcase his candles, and the art decoration will be led by design, photography, and video powerhouse, hygge.
day
Candles don’t do such a great job during the day, so the event organizers decided to make the showcase on food. There will be a variety of food vendors to choose from. Check out the event page for more details on who will be providing food.
The day time activities will have no kind of cover charge, so just go and enjoy the good food and atmosphere. Oh, and why not buy some awesome candles?
night
When the sun goes down, you’re gonna need a ticket to stay. Tickets are only a 1000 yen (elementary students are free), but there is a limited number. Furthermore, you’ve gotta get one before April 28 from one of the cafes involved, or from the event organizers. I’ve attached a picture down below with a google translated screen shot to save explanation time.
Sticking around for the night time transformation is a must. So get your tickets. If you have problems, comment below and someone will help you out.
The event space has different areas that you will want to move around and check out. There will be outdoor music by DJ’s Suneo, U2K, and Eka. There will also be a couple of garden/outdoor spaces lit up with candles.
