The Light-up Promenade Nara illumination is confirmed as running year-round at all venues except Todai-ji, which runs in summer (2026: 7/18 to 9/27, already ended); the organizer is the Nara Prefecture Nara Park Office, and Ukimido is planned to pause for LED work; no hours, prices, or addresses were verified, and the prefecture page's two conflicting Todai-ji date lines were flagged.
