Heroes, cue the theme music and grab your PLUS ULTRA energy, because this announcement is an absolute POWER-UP. 💥🎶
TOHO Co., Ltd., GEA Live, and RoadCo Entertainment have officially gone full anime protagonist and announced My Hero Academia in Concert, a brand-new, goosebumps-guaranteed live music experience that’s storming 10 cities across Europe in 2026. And no, this isn’t just a concert… this is a full-on emotional boss battle set to music.
As part of My Hero Academia’s massive 10th anniversary celebration, this concert brings the heart, hype, and heroic soul of the beloved anime straight to the stage. Picture this: a giant screen blasting the series’ most iconic moments, synced perfectly with a world-class live ensemble performing Yuki Hayashi’s legendary score. Yes “You Say Run.” Yes “You Can Be a Hero.” Yes prepare to feel EVERYTHING.
This is the European leg of a worldwide tour, with a U.S. tour announcement dropping this April (mark your calendars, heroes). Fans can sign up right now at www.myheroacademiainconcert.com for updates and early ticket access. The European tour kicks off September 2026, with ticket on-sale details coming soon and trust us, you’ll want to be ready when the gates open.
Before it hits Europe and the U.S., My Hero Academia in Concert makes its world premiere on May 30, 2026, at Pacifico Yokohama in Japan the perfect launchpad for a franchise that’s gone absolutely global. Based on Kōhei Horikoshi’s record-smashing manga (over 100 million volumes sold, $130+ million in box office, and a fandom of 4.3 million+ across social media), this is a celebration a decade in the making.
According to Floris Douwes, Producer and Managing Director at GEA Live, bringing this music to the stage changes everything. Hayashi’s compositions don’t just play in the background they drive the emotion, elevate the action, and punch you right in the feels. Translation: this show hits like a perfectly timed Detroit Smash.
TOHO echoed that energy, saying the concert gives fans a chance to experience the music, action, and heart of the series LIVE, creating unforgettable moments for longtime fans and newcomers alike. Basically: whether you’ve been riding with Class 1-A since day one or just discovered your Quirk, this show is for you.
And let’s not forget 2026 is a milestone year. Ten years since the anime’s April 2016 debut, My Hero Academia is going ALL IN with a commemorative anniversary logo, a special teaser visual, a brand-new extra episode, and now this worldwide concert tour. That’s how you celebrate a legacy.
For the uninitiated (welcome, future heroes): My Hero Academia takes place in a world where most people have superpowers known as Quirks. It follows Izuku Midoriya, a kid born without powers who dares to dream anyway. After inheriting the legendary Quirk of All Might, he enrolls at U.A. High School, training alongside Class 1-A to learn what it truly means to be a hero in a world shaped by both hope and chaos.
Music. Memories. Maximum emotion.
My Hero Academia in Concert isn’t just a show it’s a victory lap for one of anime’s greatest stories.
