On October 29th, idol group Sakurazaka46 announced that they will hold their 5th anniversary live concert, "5th YEAR ANNIVERSARY LIVE," at the group's first MUFG Stadium (National Stadium, Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo) in April 2026. The concert will be held over two days, on April 11th and 12th.
This will be the first time they will perform at the National Stadium. Although the concert itself had been announced, details such as the date, time and venue had not been revealed, so it came as a surprise to fans, and keywords such as "#NationalStadium" and "#SakurazakaNational" became trending topics on social media.
Fans responded with comments such as, "Sakurazaka's performance at the National Stadium is amazing," "Sakurazaka46 has finally made it to the National Stadium," "It's truly moving that the Sakamichi Group will be able to perform at this venue," "I'm so happy that all the members' hard work has been rewarded," and "This will definitely be a concert that will go down in Sakurazaka46 history."
