As Shibuya Ward in Tokyo calls for refraining from visiting the city during Halloween, an event to enjoy Halloween in the virtual space of Shibuya will begin on the night of the 26th.

This event is proposed by Shibuya Ward, which is calling for refraining from visiting the city during Halloween, as a new way to enjoy it in order to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus.

In "Virtual Shibuya", the city of Shibuya is reproduced in detail such as the scrambled intersection in front of Shibuya station, the statue of Hachiko, the faithful dog, and the sign of the building, and it floated in the air until Halloween on the 31st of this month. The city of Shibuya with Halloween specifications, such as pumpkin, which is not found in the actual city, is expressed.

In addition to being able to stroll around the city with your own alter ego called an avatar, you can enjoy live performances by popular artists and purchase original goods in a virtual space.



It is generally open to the public from 7:30 pm on the 26th, and you can enjoy it for free by downloading the dedicated app.



Up to 50 avatars can be displayed on the screen, and even in "Virtual Shibuya", denseness can be avoided, so Shibuya Ward said, "This Halloween is a new way to enjoy" Virtual Shibuya ". I want you to do it. "
