This article is an introduction to street piano locations in Japan that I have visited.
This time I would like to introduce a street piano that can be played amidst the illuminations in Minatomirai, Yokohama, Kanagawa prefecture.
This street piano is a limited-time attraction, and the source of the article is from last winter. It is uncertain whether it will be held again this year, but it is still a recommended spot. Even without the street piano, this location offers a wonderful night view and various shopping opportunities, so I would also like to introduce them as well.

PIANO TYPE：upright piano
Although the information is from last winter, this is a stylish street piano that can be played under the illuminations. It is rare to find a piano that can be played under the illuminations throughout Japan, at least as far as I know. This street piano was installed in 2022 to commemorate the 5th anniversary of the Yokohama “MIRAITO” illumination event.
Anyone, from children to adults, can play the piano. When I played it, there were about 10 people in line, and the waiting time was around 20-30 minutes. However, it was a great opportunity to play in such an environment that cannot be experienced elsewhere.
Installation period: Limited time
From Thursday, December 1st, 2022 to Sunday, December 25th, 2022.
Playing hours
From 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
Installation location
“Art Square” at Gran Mall Park. A 2-minute walk from Minatomirai Station on the Minatomirai Line. An 11-minute walk from JR Keihin-Tohoku Line, Negishi Line, and Municipal Subway Blue Line.
The location may be a bit difficult to find, but you can find it by walking towards the Mark Is Minato Mirai store.
