"Roppongi Art Night" is an all-night art banquet staged in the district of Roppongi (Minato-ku, Tokyo). The Roppongi area, where various commercial and cultural establishments are assembled, will be dotted not only with artistic works but also with various other forms of art, including design, music, film and performance, thereby providing the visitors with extraordinary experiences. We will, then, propose a new lifestyle, in which people enjoy art in their daily lives. Also, by integrating art with the district, impressions on Roppongi's cultural aspects will be improved, while creating a pioneering model of urban development for the metropolitan Tokyo. Our aim is to further expand Roppongi Art Night as a representative event among art festivals in Tokyo.

As a part of the Tokyo Culture Creation Project, “Roppongi Art Night 2012” will take place all night from 10:00 on Saturday March 24 to 18:00 on Sunday March 25, 2012. This is an all-night art banquet staged in the district of Roppongi (Minato-ku, Tokyo), in which the whole area will be covered not only with artistic works but also with various other forms of art, such as music, film and performance.
