Past events
UP-T FESTIVALSun, 11/23, Tokyo Metropolis
Up-T, a company that produces and sells original T-shirts and merchandise, is hosting an idol event. Since the organizer is a company that has been creating must-have items for cheering at live shows, the merch available at this event is worth keeping an eye on. It would be great to pick up a keepsake item! In addition to live performances, there will also be a fashion show, so we’re excited to see expressions and styles that are different from their usual look when they sing.

Gulliver Live CircuitSun, 11/16, Tokyo
Six artist acts will perform live across six venues in five bars of the GULLIVER Group. Unlike a typical circuit event, each artist stays at a fixed venue and plays two to three sets with breaks in between. Attendees move from venue to venue to enjoy the shows. The event runs from 6:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., so you can relax and enjoy food, drinks, and music at your own pace.
