Join us at an Opening Ceremony that you will never forget! Japan is well-known to be a leading country for new technologies and high-tech developments. You will get a feeling for this at our Opening Ceremony. We will not only have interesting speeches and an entertaining program, but also a chance to get an insight into this innovative and “high-tech” part of Tokyo. The Opening Ceremony, Flying Dinner and Party will take place at the famous Chinzanso Hotel, a luxury garden oasis in the heart of Tokyo. The gardens were indeed formally established in 186, in what we called the Meiji era. However, the beautiful camelia hills of the area were already a point of reference for stunning natural beauty 700 years ago. The Chinzanso Hotel will welcome for the night of our Opening Ceremony amazing lighting, 3D screens and cutting-edge technologies such as speaking robots and holograms. One life-time experience in an exclusive event area that will fulfil all our wishes and needs will be the perfect venue for an outstanding night in the true AIJA Spirit.
