We present discovery signatures of techni-dilaton (TD) at LHC. The TD was predicted long ago as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) associated with the spontaneous breaking of the approximate scale symmetry in the walking technicolor (WTC) (initially dubbed "scale-invariant technicolor"). Being pNGB, the TD should have a mass M_TD lighter than other techni-hadrons like techni-rho meson; It has recently been estimated to be M_TD ~= 500-600 GeV for the typical WTC model, which is well in the discovery range of the ongoing LHC experiment. Noting that all the TD couplings to the standard model (SM) particles arise only through loop of the techni-fermions with their induced Yukawa couplings to the composite TD, we find that the TD-WW and ZZ couplings get dramatically suppressed compared with those of the SM Higgs which has tree-level couplings proportional to their masses. In contrast, TD couplings to gg, t tbar and gamma gamma are not suppressed and hence are relatively enhanced compared to those of the SM Higgs. We explicitly evaluate the TD LHC production cross sections at sqrt(s)=7 TeV times the branching ratios in terms of the TD mass M_TD as an input parameter for the region 200 GeV < M_TD < 1000 GeV in the typical WTC models. Remarkably, the WW/ZZ mode is shown to be consistent with the recent ATLAS and CMS bounds for M_TD > 350(400) GeV in the one-doublet (one-family) model, thanks to the suppressed WW/ZZ coupling in sharp contrast to the SM Higgs. On the other hand, the gg, gamma gamma and t tbar modes are not suppressed compared to the SM Higgs: Particularly in the one-family model with M_TD ~= 500-600 GeV, the cross section times the TD -> gamma gamma branching ratio gets gigantically enhanced to be ~ 10^(-3)-10^(-2) pb, which is large enough to be discovered within the first-year's run at LHC and hence a smoking-gun of the TD.
