e-lamp. Inc. (President and CEO: Ayumi Yamamoto; headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo) will hold a large-scale nighttime private event, “Lunapa de Ennichi Night | Tokimeki Amusement Park in Gunma Lunapark,” on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at the amusement park Lunapark in Maebashi, Gunma Prefecture. The event is part of “Tokimeki Amusement Park,” one of the largest matching events in the Kanto region, with a scale of up to 1,000 participants. Set in an amusement park on an early summer night, it will offer attractions, food trucks, and a lively festival-like atmosphere, along with multiple features designed to help participants interact naturally. To address the common difficulty of starting conversations at large events, the program will include staff conversation support and game-based content, aiming to create an experience where even first-time participants can begin talking easily. Before the event starts, participants will create a profile character, and women will be able to borrow earrings that light up according to their heartbeat free of charge. The first-ever “Lunapa de Ennichi Night | Tokimeki Amusement Park” will take place at Lunapark, known in Gunma as “Japan’s most nostalgic amusement park.” Inside the private venue, participants can enjoy rides and food trucks while mingling in a festive, extraordinary setting. The event features four mechanisms designed to help people get closer. First is value-based matching through “Buddies for Love,” a system that generates profiles using heartbeat data. Participants provide heart-rate information collected via smartphone, described as their “excitement level,” along with simple inputs such as interests and skills. AI then generates a profile character and analyzes the types of people with whom they may have strong compatibility. On the day of the event, staff will review the Buddies for Love results after check-in and provide wristbands that make value-based similarity easy to recognize at a glance, lowering the psychological barrier to starting conversations inside the park. Second is “Conversation Starter Bingo,” a mission-style activity designed for those who want an initial reason to talk. Participants who complete a line and reach the goal as a mixed-gender pair can receive prizes. Third is a “J-POP Game,” a team-based activity in which participants use lyric cards handed out at reception as clues to expand interactions naturally. The group that forms the largest team will receive a prize. Fourth is an e-lamp.ONE talk experience booth with conversation support, where participants wear earrings that change color according to their level of excitement, creating a natural conversation trigger while staff carefully support the interaction. Event details: The event will be held on Saturday, June 6, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Lunapark, 3-16-3 Otemachi, Maebashi, Gunma 371-0026.

Capacity is up to 1,000 people in total, including men and women. Both solo participants and groups of friends are welcome.

Please check the application page for details such as participation fees, reception times, identity verification methods, and precautions. Event contents are subject to change without notice. e-lamp. is developing new communication value based on the question, “How would society change if the heart could be visualized?” through e-lamp.ONE, a device that expresses heartbeats with light. The company is entering the matching event business to apply its technology, including research insights and proprietary communication support tools, beyond simple experiences and toward the real social issue of creating opportunities for people to meet. By combining this technology with operational know-how gained through municipal collaboration events and company-run events, e-lamp. has designed spaces where participants can naturally begin conversations and deepen relationships. The result is a form of dating and encounter content that connects the strengths of both sides: it creates more opportunities to talk than typical machikon-style social events, while leading to in-person encounters with higher certainty than matching apps. With “Lunapa de Ennichi Night,” e-lamp. aims to combine the extraordinary setting of an amusement park with mission-based content and conversation support, creating encounters where participants find themselves opening up naturally rather than having to force themselves to talk.
