Overview

The Hiroko Kokufu Acoustic Trio with Hiromi Iwasaki Concert 2025 is a special event celebrating the 50th anniversary of Japanese singer Hiromi Iwasaki’s illustrious career, joined by the superb Hiroko Kokufu Acoustic Trio. Scheduled for October 25, 2025, at Mishima Civic Cultural Center Large Hall (Yuuyuu Hall) in Shizuoka Prefecture, this concert features Iwasaki’s iconic hits like Shishuuki alongside jazz standards, backed by the trio’s sophisticated sound, led by Hiroko Kokufu (piano), Yuta Komino (bass), and Tatsuhi Iwase (drums). Iwasaki, who debuted in 1975 with Duet and has starred in Les Misérables and voiced Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, brings her versatile talent to this intimate acoustic performance (). Praised on X for her “timeless vocals” and the trio’s “elegant jazz arrangements,” this event is a cultural highlight. Located near Mount Fuji and Atami, Mishima is ideal for tourists, but with limited seating (~1,200) and no parking at the venue, early booking and public transport are recommended.

Disclaimer

Jasumo provides a specialized facilitation service for foreign tourists and non-Japanese residents in Japan, assisting with ticket acquisition for cultural events, including the Hiroko Kokufu Acoustic Trio with Hiromi Iwasaki Concert 2025, through authorized platforms like Mishima Civic Cultural Center and Easton. We are not a ticket reseller and do not sell tickets directly. Our role is to guide international customers through the official booking process, addressing challenges such as:

• Language Barriers: Japan’s ticketing systems are primarily in Japanese, posing challenges for non-Japanese speakers. Jasumo offers bilingual support to ensure a seamless booking experience.
• Access to Local Platforms: Many ticketing platforms require local knowledge, Japanese phone numbers, or specific payment methods. Jasumo assists with navigating these systems and provides international payment options where available.
• High Demand and Limited Availability: With limited seating (~1,200) and Hiromi Iwasaki’s 50th anniversary celebration, securing tickets is competitive. Jasumo helps manage sales deadlines and wheelchair seating requests to maximize your chances.

Due to high demand and limited seating, securing tickets is not guaranteed. Refunds will only be issued in the event of performance cancellation or postponement. We strongly recommend booking by October 1, 2025, to access official prices (Adult: ¥7,700, U25: ¥4,400) and avoid inflated resale prices (e.g., ¥9,000 for adults). Official resale options are available ~5 days prior to the performance, and Jasumo can assist with monitoring these opportunities.
