Tokyo Motor Show 2019
The draw may have been to glimpse (but not touch) the hundreds of super sleek, state-of-the-art vehicles on display, but visitors to the 46th annual Tokyo Motor Show were also treated to a fantastic, ultra-sleek modern show of innovative lights and music each evening. Taking place from October 24-27, 2019, the event featured every type of motorized vehicle imaginable including luxury sedans, motorcycles, race cars, prototypes, scooters, trucks, and even ambulances, and drew an estimated 1.3 million visitors to Tokyo Big Sight (the Tokyo International Exhibition Center) in Odaiba.

The theme of “Contact,” according to the Tokyo Motor Show press release, came from “when our imaginations morph into creativity, a miraculous ‘contact’ occurs.”
Images of dancers, birds, robots, and other shapes lit up the Odaiba sky using drone LED lighting capable of projecting more than four billion color combinations to mesmerized spectators below.
