On Friday, August 22, 2025, ZIPANGU the Party!!, a groundbreaking music event that merges Japan’s traditional cultural sounds with contemporary club beats, will take place at ZERO TOKYO, a popular nightclub in Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Since its debut in February 2025, the event has drawn acclaim for offering a one-of-a-kind musical experience. It seamlessly integrates ancient Japanese musical forms such as gagaku (court music) and kagurabayashi (Shinto ceremonial music) with kayōkyoku — classic Japanese pop — alongside cutting-edge dance music, creating a vibrant fusion that captivates audiences.
For its second edition, the event will feature a first lineup including DJ artists such as tofubeats, Pasocom Music Club, and TAKU INOUE, along with Chip Tanaka, known for his work on anime series like Pokémon and game music for Tetris and MOTHER. Returning from the previous event, Sachiko Kobayashi will appear again, delivering not only her signature singing but also a one-night-only DJ performance.
Additionally, the special ZIPANGU stage will once again present a performance of Shimane Prefecture’s traditional art “Iwami Kagura,” creatively enhanced by the collective MPLUSPLUS through light, sound, and visuals.
Tickets are already on sale, including advance tickets that offer priority entry, as well as the ZIPANGU GOLD PASS, which comes with perks such as access to exclusive events featuring back-to-back performances by the artists.
