"Snow Miku Time Signal" in Sapporo City Center Renewed with Five New Fan-Submitted Lines

Crypton Future Media has announced that the "Snow Miku Time Signal," which has been broadcast daily at the commercial facility COCONO SUSUKINO in Sapporo, Hokkaido, since its opening in 2023, was renewed on Monday, June 8, 2026.

The new "Snow Miku Time Signal" features the Hokkaido-cheering character "Snow Miku (Hatsune Miku)" reciting five new lines selected through a public call for submissions. The announcement is broadcast five times daily (at 8:00, 12:00, 15:00, 17:00, and 19:00) at the landmark located at a major intersection in downtown Sapporo, which is visited by many domestic and international tourists.

When visiting the area near COCONO SUSUKINO, please keep an eye out for Snow Miku announcing the time on the outdoor digital board.

* The broadcast lasts approximately 30 seconds and begins about 15 seconds before each scheduled hour. (e.g., the 8:00 broadcast runs from 7:59:45 to 8:00:15)
