Business Overview

Hibiya Noon, which celebrates its 90 year anniversary in July this year, will hold a classical music concert, which was popular from the prewar period to the Showa 30's, as a part of the 90 year anniversary commemoration project. This project introduces the latest sound system used for outdoor orchestra concerts in Europe and the United States, and aims to provide a way of enjoying music that cannot be enjoyed indoors, as well as to make outdoor classical concerts in modern cities feel like a picnic and at a low price.
