Witness Scuba Diving 43 Meters Above Ginza!
A daring event to celebrate the launch of two new hotels and resorts in Okinawa
InterContinental Hotels and Resorts, is celebrating the launch of two new properties at Manza and Ishigaki, Okinawa. The celebrations will kick off this week with live aerial acrobatics at the Sony Building, Ginza (MAP). The flying performances, simulating diving in Okinawa’s tropical seas, will feature a scuba diver and a hotel concierge suspended from the top of the building at a height of 43m.There will be six 7-minute performances daily (weather permitting) from March 26-29.
It will be a great opportunity to take off-beat photos of the acrobats in full scuba gear and concierge’s uniform. There will also be an opportunity to chat with InterContinental Hotels’ concierges from Tokyo and Okinawa who are eager to demonstrate their local expertise.
