What this is
heidi. — the Tokyo-based visual kei rock band known for their emotionally charged sound and devoted fanbase — bring their live show to PLANT in Sapporo. Formed in the mid-2000s, heidi. blend melodic rock with the theatrical aesthetics of the visual kei scene, sitting somewhere between accessible J-rock and darker, more ornate territory. This is a club-scale show, intimate by design.
Who should go
Visual kei fans and J-rock followers who know heidi.'s catalogue will get the most out of this. Curious newcomers to the genre who enjoy theatrical rock performances would also find it worthwhile.
Good to know
Tickets for heidi. shows are typically sold through eplus.jp or pia.jp, both of which accept foreign credit cards — convenience store pickup at Lawson (combini) is the most reliable collection method for visitors without a Japanese delivery address. PLANT is a smaller live house in Sapporo suited to this kind of club-scale visual kei show, so expect a standing floor and a close, energetic crowd. Arrive at least 30–45 minutes before doors open, as merchandise lines at visual kei shows can be long and fans queue early. Check the band's official website or X (Twitter) account for set times and any fan-club ticket priority periods.
