Experience the Joy of Personal Time with Odakyu's 2026 Special Dream Bag
As we look towards the New Year, Odakyu Department Store is set to launch an exciting initiative themed around the upcoming zodiac animal, the horse. Beginning on December 17, 2025, the store will accept applications for its “2026 Special Dream Bag” as part of the “Odakyu Winter Special”. The event aims to promote a lifestyle focused on personal time amidst rising living costs and diverse values, encouraging individuals to cherish moments of self-care and enjoyment.
The Dream Bag will not only include unique items but also immersive experiences. For instance, a delightful horse-riding and glamping adventure set against the breathtaking backdrop of Mount Fuji's foothills will be featured, along with a lucky horseshoe-shaped 18-karat gold pendant as a special gift. Additionally, participants can enjoy a spectacular helicopter ride over Tokyo and Hakone, culminating in a private star-gazing experience from the summit of Mount Komagatake, allowing them to create unforgettable memories under the vast starlit sky.
