“Interactive Window Display” to celebrate the New Year 2023
From the time of the Hattori Clock Store, Meiji·Taisho era·Showa·Heisei·The new year will be celebrated for the first time since the name of the Wako Main Building building, which has been a landmark of Ginza along with the clock tower that has carved time for 5 generations with Reiwa, changed to "SEIKO HOUSE GINZA". At midnight on December 31, when the neon lights in Ginza diminish light and becomes a harsh atmosphere, the Westminster chime of the clock tower will begin to ring a bell to signal the beginning of 2023 at 24:00 45 seconds before. The building is lit up at the same time as the bell of 12 hits following the lingering sound, and the central show window facing the Ginza 4-chome intersection opens. Then, in addition to the 2023 Chinese zodiac sign-shaped rabbits, colorful 3D video rabbits appear, jump around freely, celebrate the New Year with visitors, and enjoy an interactive display project that sends out a message with hope suitable for the New Year, for a limited time of 20 minutes. The special display to celebrate the New Year is scheduled to be held from 8:00 to 22:00 until January 11th. (However, you can see rabbits in 3D images from 16:30.)
