By turning off the music and dimming the lights inside the museum, we create an exhibition space enveloped in a tranquility distinct from that of daytime.You can enjoy an experience that
“touches your senses”—from the aquariums illuminated by
flickering lights to the behaviors of creatures unique to the night, and even the fluttering of birds’ wings.
During summer vacation, when the intense heat continues day after day, you can spend a relaxing summer evening in the cool, comfortable, all-weather facility. 
Additionally, as a highlight unique to the evening, in the new “Encountering Poison” zone—which opened on Wednesday, March 18, 2026—
we’ll provide a special commentary on how the venomous “Chaguro Scorpion” glows in response to UV light. 
Furthermore, in the massive art space “Wonder Moments,” the music will be turned off, allowing you to spend a pleasant moment surrounded by beautiful art projected onto spheres and the floor,
along with the scent of natural aromas evoking a “night breeze.” 
All visitors will receive an “original wristband” that glows softly in the dark. Through this event, Nifrel
invites you to experience the charm of creatures in a way different from daytime, and to enjoy a special summer evening in the
cool comfort of the museum.
