As is custom every Roppongi Art Night, a dance stage will suddenly appear in the middle of the night. Led by choreographer/dancer Ryohei Kondo, who heads the Condors, participants will passionately and quietly perform Bon-odori dancing in the middle of the night. Don’t miss out on the fun! This year the dance will appear in Tokyo Midtown as well.
