As a sister event of the 30th Annual Honolulu Festival, ASOBIEXPO HAWAII 2026 will take place on Monday, March 16, 2026, at the Tom Moffatt Waikiki Shell. The event, organized by the ASOBIEXPO HAWAII Committee, is excited to announce that ATARASHII GAKKO! has been added to the performance lineup.

Joining the previously announced performers Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and FRUITS ZIPPER, ATARASHII GAKKO!, self-proclaimed “representatives of Japanese youth”, are known for their powerful performances and dynamic choreography, created entirely by the members themselves. The group drew global attention with their solo performance on the GOBI Stage at Coachella 2024 and went on to complete a world tour across 26 cities in Europe, Asia, and North America, as well as seven cities in Japan, attracting a total audience of over 110,000 fans worldwide.

With three leading acts representing the forefront of Japan’s pop culture, ASOBIEXPO HAWAII 2026 promises to be a one-night-only celebration under the stars of Waikiki.
