Kizuna AI Headlines ESPERA Virtual Music Festival on VRChat

The lineup for the final day of the three-day ESPERA -AdHoc Live Festival 2026 has been confirmed. The event runs November 20-22 on the VRChat platform.

Nine artists will perform on the paid-admission closing day, November 22. The bill includes pioneering VTuber Kizuna AI, along with Harusaruhi, VESPERBELL Yomi, Shirakawa Shirase, and kaza. Performers for the free-entry days on November 20 and 21 will be announced later.

Tickets for the final day are on sale via ZAIKO. Three tiers are offered. The limited S Ticket, priced at 15,000 yen, grants access to the same VRChat instance as the performing artists. The standard Venue Ticket costs 4,000 yen. A Streaming Ticket is available for 3,000 yen, providing access to a live stream and archive until November 29.

The festival is a joint project by RIOT MUSIC and Culture Entertainment. Production company MIGIRI, known for designing the popular AdHoc VRChat world, is handling the festival's spatial design, live production, and technical direction.

MIGIRI's technical setup will broadcast audio, motion data, and stage production in real-time to all instances of the venue. This allows an unlimited number of attendees to experience the same live performance simultaneously, bypassing VRChat's standard per-instance user cap.

The event's dedicated website is live. Tickets require registration of a VRChat Display Name at the time of purchase.
