The show is also part of the "Tokyo 2020 Support Program." A total of 500 Intel Shooting Star drones will dance across the night sky, synchronized with cutting-edge technologies like 3D sound, laser beams, and lighting, forming various shapes.

The overall production is directed by Kenji Kobashi (Creative Director of the Tokyo 2020 NIPPON Festival), known for his work on numerous popular events.
Intel Corporation is responsible for the show's system. The company holds the Guinness World Record for flying over 2,000 drones and has pioneered a completely new form of entertainment called "Light Show," where a single pilot can control hundreds of drones.

This year's Tokyo Motor Show, themed "OPEN FUTURE," has expanded its venue and created a new free admission area to encourage casual visits from newcomers. The spectacular show will be held in the free admission area, the "Bridge of Dreams."
The show runs from 6:30 PM for approximately 30 minutes. While admission to the special viewing area requires a numbered ticket, some viewing is also possible from the "Dream Plaza."
