The main highlight of the event is the special light and music show that takes place several times each evening.

During the show, the atrium is filled with lights and music, and a snow-like effect makes it feel as if you are inside a giant snow globe.

The pure white decorations and the warm glow of the lights create a sophisticated and romantic atmosphere.
