What this is
Ayasa Butoukai Birthday Live 2026 is a special birthday celebration live event for Ito Ayasa, a popular voice actress and violinist known for her work in the anime and gaming world. Themed as a 'Birthday Ball' (Butoukai), the event carries an elegant, ballroom-inspired concept befitting its title. The event runs across two sessions on August 15, 2026, at TOKYO FM Hall, with notable guest performers Teru Ikuta and Aimi joining for Session 1 and Session 2 respectively, and Mikoi Sasaki serving as MC for both. A separate cheki (instant photo) event featuring Ito Ayasa is scheduled the following day, August 16, giving fans a rare chance for a personal photo keepsake. Events like this are a cornerstone of Japanese idol and voice actress fan culture, blending live performance with intimate fan interaction.
Who should go
This event is ideal for fans of Ito Ayasa, voice actress idol culture, and the broader anime and gaming entertainment scene in Japan. Attendees who enjoy intimate live performances with a theatrical, celebratory atmosphere will feel right at home. The guest lineup of Teru Ikuta and Aimi adds extra appeal for fans of those performers as well. The cheki photo event on the following day is a must for dedicated fans seeking a personal moment with Ayasa. Book tickets early through the HiBiKi StYle+ FC lottery and plan your accommodation in central Tokyo in advance.
Good to know
Tickets are sold via a fan club lottery system through HiBiKi StYle+ FC — foreign visitors will need to register for the fan club in advance and should check whether international credit cards are accepted on the platform. TOKYO FM Hall is a mid-sized seated venue in the Harajuku/Omotesando area with a capacity of around 300–400, offering an intimate atmosphere well-suited to this style of birthday live event. All seats are reserved and assigned, so the experience is fully seated — comfortable attire is fine, though some fans may dress up in keeping with the 'ball' theme. Merchandise lines can form early, so arriving well before the stated door-open time is advisable. The cheki photo event on August 16 is a separate occasion and will likely require its own application — monitor the official website closely for details.
