Overview

Takashima Chisako’s Zawatsuku! Showa Kayo Festival is a dazzling, nostalgia-drenched live spectacle celebrating the golden age of Showa-era kayo kyoku, headlined by the iconic singer and TV personality Takashima Chisako, beloved for her vibrant voice, charismatic stage presence, and timeless hits like “Koi no Vacance” and “Ame no Midōsuji.”

This one-night-only extravaganza in Nagoya transforms Nippon Gaishi Hall into a retro dreamscape, featuring Chisako alongside surprise guest artists, lavish orchestral backing, and a setlist bursting with Showa classics from the 1950s–1980s. Scheduled for February 20, 2026 (Fri), with doors opening at 17:30 and the curtain rising at 18:30, the show promises ~2.5 hours of high-energy medleys, emotional ballads, and audience sing-alongs that evoke post-war Japan’s cultural heartbeat.

Praised on X for its “Showa fever revival” and “Chisako’s unstoppable sparkle,” this festival is a must for kayo fans. Tickets are ¥11,000 (all seats reserved) + ¥660 service fee, available via lottery pre-order from October 11, 2025, 12:00 to November 4, 2025, 23:59, with results on November 7–8. The ~10,000-seat arena ensures grand-scale intimacy. Ages 3+ require tickets—secure via e+ due to expected sellout.
