The concerts promise to take the audience on a musical journey, showcasing his eclectic and continuously evolving body of work.
The tour features two dates: December 8th in Osaka at Zepp Namba and December 26th in Tokyo at Zepp Shinjuku. He will be joined on stage by a diverse cast of contemporary musicians, including the duos Kukuku and Shappo, and drummer Hayate Ebihara, promising a dynamic and varied live show.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why is an ID check required for entry to this performance?

Are children allowed to attend the 1F standing performance?
Tickets are required for children aged 3 and above. While allowed, it is generally recommended that children do not sit on laps in the reserved seating areas (if available), and the standing area may be unsuitable due to the crowd density.

You must bring a valid, original photo ID (such as a Passport or My Number Card) for the purchaser and accompanying person, as well as cash to pay the mandatory separate drink fee at the venue entrance.
Is there a limit to how many tickets I can apply for?
Yes, you can specify up to two tickets per application for each show. However, there is a generous limit of four applications in total across the entire concert series.
What is the final application deadline for the Osaka show?
The general release application period for the Osaka show at Zepp Namba ends relatively soon, on Friday, December 5, 2025, at 18:00 JST. You must secure your ticket before this date.
