Hitsujibungaku, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and Otoboke Beaver are set to perform at matsuri ’26: Japanese Music Experience London on Dec. 14. The event will run from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Outernet Live in London.
Presented by CEIPA and the TOYOTA GROUP “MUSIC WAY PROJECT,” the showcase is intended to bring Japanese content to audiences around the world and support the growth of Japanese music. Matsuri began in Los Angeles in March 2025; the London event is its second edition and its first in Europe. A Bangkok edition is planned for February 2027.
A Live Nation presale starts Nov. 5 at 10 a.m., followed by the general ticket sale on Nov. 6 at 10 a.m. The day’s program will also include tsudoi, an industry mixer co-hosted with JETRO.
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu said she was excited to return to London for the first time in a year and perform alongside a varied group of Japanese female artists. Otoboke Beaver said the band was honored to be invited and looked forward to playing for the London audience.
