In 2024, Lux Night KUMAMOTO was born with the concept “Encountering Higo Hosokawa Culture.”
In 2025, the theme “Miyamoto Musashi × Hosokawa Culture” was chosen, and Lux Night KUMAMOTO 2025 was confirmed.
This year's theme, Miyamoto Musashi, was invited by Lord Higo Hosokawa Tadatoshi and spent the final five years of his life in Kumamoto, where he authored the famous “The Book of Five Rings” and “The Way of the Solitary Traveler.” He also left behind outstanding works in the worlds of calligraphy, painting, and crafts, greatly influencing Hosokawa culture.
Lux Night KUMAMOTO 2025 is an immersive night walk themed around “Musashi the Man,” traced through bamboo lanterns, light, and sound.
*Last admission is at 8:30 PM.
*Tickets cannot be purchased for middle school students or younger only.
