Why You Should Visit

This Christmas market at Ama Site Park in Takatsuki opens on the first day of the park's annual Ama Illumination. Food trucks, food and craft booths and hands-on workshops spread across four spots in the park, from Sunstar Plaza to Michi Plaza. Around 17:00 on the opening day, a lighting ceremony switches on the illuminations along the trees between Sunstar Plaza and Michi Plaza. The stage lineup includes the Takatsuki Boys and Girls Choir, a Christmas song live set and a quiz contest, and a night bubble show is planned after dark. A good pick for families who want to spend the afternoon at the market and stay for the lights.
