Astronaut Snoopy Soars Up Tokyo Skytree For FIRST BEAGLE IN SKYTREE® Event

10.July.2019 | FOOD / SPOT

Tokyo Skytree is set to hold an event titled FIRST BEAGLE IN SKYTREE® from July 18 to October 14 in collaboration with the astronaut version of Snoopy which appeared in the original comic 50 years ago in March this year.

 

Strap on your space suits and get ready to head up the tallest tower in the world as its top floor, the Tembo Galleria―towering at 450 meters high―is transformed into a Snoopy space station. Learn about outer space with Snoopy and his friends, dine on food and drink themed on everybody’s favourite beagle, and more.

Join snoopy as he makes his galactic debut as the first beagle in space. As you step into Shuttle 2 (the elevator) head up into the stars, you and your fellow astronauts will glimpse pictures an decorations taken from the Astronaut Snoopy graphic novel. While you watch the number of meters rolling up on the monitor as you soar higher and higher, you can rest assured the excitement of stepping out will surge simultaneously.

 

You’ve made it. You step out of the elevator into the Skytree Space Station where Snoopy and the gang will be ready to meet you. Be sure to snap a commemorative photo with them with the spacey background on the windows so you never forget this day. Once that’s all done it’s time to start your astronaut mission.

Continue up a further 110 meters to reach the peak of the Tembo Galleria and gaze at the wall decorations all along which celebrate Astronaut Snoopy’s 50th anniversary with commentary. There’s plenty of great opportunities for photos here too.

After learning about space, it’s time to experience space yourself! Step into this area and take a photo that looks like you’re floating in space with Snoopy. Nearby there are also boards with various commentaries on them regarding JAXA’s work including the Akatsuki space probe, the Hayabusa2 asteroid explorer, astronaut gear for outside the space shuttle, sokol suits, space stations, and more.

It’s finally time to depart for space exploration. At the space station’s highest point (451.2m) you will find a special spaceship photo spot with beautiful illuminated half-globes and an illustration of the door to space behind you. Depart into the starry expanse with Snoopy, Charlie Brown and all the other characters of Peanuts.

Every astronaut needs a good meal to keep them going. Head back down to the SKYTREE CAFE on the Tembo Deck on floor 340F and enjoy a selection of themed desserts, drinks and more. You’ll even get a free gift! Look forward to the Planet Bagel filled with avocado and basil, a Moon Surface Tiramisu, the Iced Charlie Brown Whipped Cream & Caramel Latte, and more.

 

Expect to sift through all the exclusive merchandise they’ll have on offer too. All of this is available for a limited time only, so don’t miss this chance to celebrate Snoopy as the FIRST BEAGLE IN SKYTREE®.

  • Check out the new Snoopy museum logo and image!

    12.April.2019 | SPOT

    In Autumn 2019, the Snoopy Museum will relocate to Grandberry Park, Minami Machida. The museum, which once stood in Roppongi, will be twice the size and come with a new logo and upgraded image. Head of Cozfish Shin Sobue created the logo and image design for the Roppongi Snoopy Museum and is now in charge of the design and logo for the new museum. In contrast to the Roppongi logo design, which was minimalistic to represent the museum’s metropolitan surroundings, the new logo reflects the image of a park and fun picnic memories. There is particular emphasis on the letters SMT in this new logo design. There are plans to place the logo on the museum wall nearest to the park. A model of the new museum will make its debut appearance at the Snoopy Museum exhibition to be held in Osaka from 13th April. The Snoopy Museum will have many similarities with the Schulz Museum in California. The Snoopy Museum will be home to many fascinating and precious original storyboards and materials, and will even have permanent exhibits as well as personal workshop rooms. You can also obtain original goods that you cannot find anywhere else. Visitors are also invited to stop by the cafe in the adjoining annexe. The museum's location is surrounded by greenery, and it is here that a wide range of activities will take place to entertain visitors. A brand new type of museum is soon to be born.  The exhibition that took place five times in the Roppongi Snoopy Museum has been condensed down to be held in Nagoya and Osaka. Here, you can catch original drawings and sketches and purchase from the selection of 200 carefully chosen vintage goods. The most popular original goods are also making a comeback!    If you’re a Snoopy fan who missed the opportunity to catch the exhibitions held at Roppongi, there’s now a chance to enjoy Snoopy at the new Snoopy Museum!   (C) Peanuts Worldwide LLC
