The "pixiv Tanabata Tanzaku Festival" will be held at Roppongi Hills Tokyo City View Observatory Gallery 1 to celebrate the illustration communication service "pixiv" surpassing 10 million users. The event will run from July 1st to July 7th.

"Pixiv" is a social networking service specializing in the posting and viewing of illustrations. The event will combine tanzaku-shaped illustrations posted to "Pixiv" into a giant art exhibit. A 5-meter-tall "fukinagashi" (windsock) Tanabata decoration will be created. This will be a giant Tanabata art piece created by thousands of users.

Submissions for tanzaku-shaped illustrations will be accepted on a special pixiv website from June 16th to June 23rd. All submitted tanzaku illustrations will be placed among the Tanabata decorations.
