Announcing a Script Contest for the "Snow Miku Time Signal"!

Snow Miku Time Signal

Are you familiar with the video content known as the "Snow Miku Time Signal," where "Snow Miku," a character who supports Hokkaido and also serves as a Sapporo Tourism Ambassador, announces the time? It has been broadcast daily on the outdoor digital billboard at "COCONO SUSUKINO" in Sapporo, Hokkaido, since its opening in November 2023.

Snow Miku Time Signal

The "Snow Miku Time Signal" is a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from all over Hokkaido, Japan, and even overseas. We are now excited to announce a renewal of the time signal's content! With this renewal, we are holding a public contest for the lines that "Snow Miku" will speak in the time signals broadcast at 8:00, 12:00, 15:00, 17:00, and 19:00!

The selected lines will be used to produce and broadcast the new "Snow Miku Time Signal." The names of the winners will be displayed in the time signal, and they will also receive prizes for each award. Through this contest and the broadcast of the time signal, we hope to contribute to Hokkaido tourism and help liven up the region. We eagerly await your submissions!
