A ballroom that surrounds you with wonder

Japan · 2026

At the heart of Tokyo, Mandarin Oriental Tokyo continues to redefine what luxury experiences look like. Known for its refined hospitality, the hotel set out to push the boundaries of what its iconic ballroom could offer. Together with Vega Project K.K., part of VEGA Group, the vision was clear: creating a space that doesn’t just host events, but completely immerses guests in them.

Elegant venue becomes an immersive destination

Mandarin Oriental Tokyo has long been synonymous with refined, high-end experiences. As expectations around both weddings and corporate events continue to evolve, the hotel identified an opportunity to rethink its ballroom as a versatile stage for storytelling.

Guests today are no longer satisfied with beautiful surroundings alone. They are looking for moments that feel personal, immersive, and memorable – whether it’s a couple celebrating their wedding day or a brand trying to captivate an audience during a keynote. To meet these expectations, the hotel partnered with Vega Project K.K. to explore how advanced audiovisual solutions could elevate every type of event hosted in this space.

Elevating expectations in luxury events

For Mandarin Oriental Tokyo, the challenge was twofold. On one hand, weddings demanded emotional, magical environments that couples would remember for a lifetime. On the other, corporate events require clarity, flexibility, and impact to keep increasingly demanding audiences engaged.

Traditional setups could no longer meet these expectations. The ambition was to create an environment that could deliver both intimacy and scale, both elegance and innovation, all while maintaining the seamless service standards Mandarin Oriental Tokyo is known for.

Compact power enabling 360° event experience

To bring this vision to life, the ballroom was transformed into a fully immersive environment, powered by twelve Barco G62-W14 projectors. Carefully installed to deliver seamless 360-degree projection, the setup wraps guests in visuals from every angle, turning the room itself into a storytelling canvas.

A key advantage of the G62 platform is its compact and lightweight design, which makes it particularly well-suited for environments where discretion and flexibility are essential. In a luxury setting like Mandarin Oriental Tokyo, technology must enhance the experience without dominating the space. The smaller footprint of the G62 projectors allows them to be integrated elegantly into the ballroom, preserving clean sightlines and the refined aesthetic of the venue, while still delivering the brightness and image quality required for immersive storytelling.

This thoughtful integration enables the ballroom to fully transform depending on the occasion. This was showcased during several key events, such as wedding fairs and corporate events. Throughout these events, Barco’s projection played a central role in shaping the experience, unlocking both creative freedom and operational versatility.

Nakamura, Seiichi, Barco Territory Sales Manager: “This project shows how projection can fundamentally reshape a venue. Instead of designing around a fixed room, Mandarin Oriental Tokyo now has a space that can evolve visually for every occasion. With the G62 platform, we’ve combined visual impact with the consistency and ease of ownership that venues need to deliver flawless events day after day. This installation allows the venue to adapt instantly, without compromising on quality.”

Events: from something you attend, to something you step into

With its new 360-degree projection environment, Mandarin Oriental Tokyo has created a ballroom that impresses and resonates. Couples can now envision their wedding as a fully immersive journey, while businesses can deliver messages that truly connect with their audiences.

Richard Johns, Managing Director at Vega Project K.K., concludes: “One of the biggest opportunities was creating a space that works equally well for emotional, once-in-a-lifetime celebrations and high-impact business events. Bringing this vision to life required a close collaboration between creative design and reliable technology. With Barco as a partner, we could focus on the experience, knowing the technical foundation would support it seamlessly.”
