While primarily known for its mechanically sliding field, the Sapporo Dome also features a partially transparent roof that bathes the interior in crisp, cold northern light.

During day events, the combination of snow reflecting through the glass roof creates a magical, soft-lit environment that feels otherworldly—especially during winter sports and baseball games.
