The event was a collaboration project for its candle brand 'Saburoku Candle' and took place at Aloft Tokyo Ginza, a next-generation lifestyle hotel under Marriott International.
### Event Overview
This event was organized in alignment with 'EARTH HOUR (*1),' a global environmental action. At the 'W XYZ Bar' inside Aloft Tokyo Ginza, lights were dimmed from 6:00 PM, and approximately 100 candles were lit. A live jazz performance started at 9:00 PM.
Around 120 visitors attended, enjoying a special atmosphere different from the usual urban bar scene. Enveloped in the gentle flicker of flames and soothing melodies, the space felt warm and cozy, reminiscent of sitting around a bonfire in the heart of the city.

### Saburoku Candle
Saburoku Candle is a brand inspired by Japanese woodworking culture. Its name is derived from 'Sanjaku Rokushaku (Saburoku),' the standard dimensions of architectural materials. Based on the concept of 'Wood, Fire, and People,' it proposes spaces illuminated by light. The Saburoku size has a burning time of about 60 hours, allowing it to stay lit for approximately three days. These interior candles are handmade by craftsmen using domestic solid wood, making them beautiful both when lit and when unlit. In times of disaster, they serve as reliable emergency lighting. Their design fits anywhere and can be placed permanently in daily life, balancing visual appeal with practicality to create 'blank space' and order in living environments.

### Comments on the Event and Future Developments
'Saburoku Candle is a light that connects people's "En" (bonds) through fire. Since ancient times, people have naturally gathered around fire, leading to conversations and new encounters. I am very happy that the hotel bar in Ginza was wrapped in the light of about 100 candles, creating a time for people to connect. We will continue to expand candle nights to various locations such as hotels and restaurants, striving to create places where people meet and bonds are born through the light of fire.'
Saburoku Candle plans to continue expanding space design and candle night projects using candles at hotels, restaurants, commercial facilities, and events globally. The next event is scheduled for Monday, May 4, at 'THE FLOW CAFÉ' in Yamanakako Village, Yamanashi Prefecture.
