Hitsujibungaku, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu & Otoboke Beaver to Play Japanese Music Showcase matsuri ’26 in London

Hitsujibungaku, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and Otoboke Beaver will perform at matsuri ‘26: Japanese Music Experience LONDON, set for Dec. 14 at Outernet Live in London.

The showcase is presented by CEIPA and TOYOTA GROUP “MUSIC WAY PROJECT,” an initiative launched to bring more Japanese content to audiences worldwide. The project aims to build a “way” forward with the young artists shaping the future of Japanese music and to drive the genuine globalization and sustainable growth of the country’s music. matsuri debuted in Los Angeles in March 2025 and the London show is its second edition and its first in Europe. A Bangkok edition is planned for February 2027.

Live Nation presale begins at Nov. 5 at 10 a.m. and general on-sale opens Nov. 6 at 10 a.m. Also set for the day of the show is tsudoi, an industry mixer co-hosted with JETRO.

“I’m so excited to be performing in London again for the first time in a year!” Kyary Pamyu Pamyu said in a statement. “I’m especially looking forward to sharing the stage this time with such a wonderfully diverse group of Japanese female artists, each with their own unique character and style. I’ll give it everything I’ve got to share the magic of Japanese music with everyone in London!”

Otoboke Beaver added: “Hello! We’re OTOBOKE BEAVER from Japan! We’re honored and excited to be asked to play matsuri LONDON. We’re traveling all the way to London especially for this event, and we look forward to seeing everyone there. See you under the mirror ball!”
