(Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Fukuoka; President and CEO: Yoshimitsu Goto) on June 27, 2026 (Sat.) at Mizuho PayPay Dome Fukuoka.

This was the 7th installment of "MUSIC CIRCUS FUKUOKA," an all-night music festival that has garnered strong support, particularly among young people in Fukuoka Prefecture, since its first event in 2018. This performance was rebranded as "SBI MUSIC CIRCUS FUKUOKA -Beat Drop-" pursuing overwhelming live performance centered on HIPHOP, and attracted a total of approximately 13,000 attendees.

Approximately 13,000 guests enjoyed a special, extraordinary night, with some relaxing with drinks while enjoying the music, others immersed in the artists' overwhelming singing and DJ performances in front of the stage, and some captivated by the powerful urban sports performances.

Live broadcasting was also carried out on ABEMA Premium.

By integrating urban sports content in addition to music live performances, we demonstrated the value of a "hybrid entertainment festival" that goes beyond a mere music event. By incorporating urban sports, which have a high affinity with street culture in recent years, we created a space where diverse cultures such as music, fashion, and sports intersect.

This event has evolved into a festival that is not just for "watching" but also for "experiencing." Within the venue's characteristic all-weather dome, we strongly emphasized the unique appeal of this event, which can simultaneously develop a variety of content, further enhancing its presence as a new hub for Fukuoka's nightlife culture.

Various Food and Drinks

Inside the venue, a variety of festival foods were offered to create a sense of excitement unique to a festival. By incorporating a lineup that allows visitors to experience the food culture of Kyushu and Fukuoka, we created an opportunity for visitors from afar to experience the region's charm. To allow enjoyment between music live performances, the menu was primarily composed of easy-to-eat foods, contributing to the overall satisfaction of the event.

In addition, a wide range of alcoholic and soft drinks were provided, achieving a balance of excitement and relaxation unique to an all-night event. In particular, for attendees, mainly young people, drink presentations with high affinity to the music experience enhanced the sense of unity and immersion throughout the venue.

SBI MUSIC CIRCUS Inc. upholds the mission of "delivering the most smiles in the world through the power of entertainment" and handles projects such as the "SBI MUSIC CIRCUS," one of Japan's largest music festivals, and "SBI Mai Hanabi," one of Kansai's largest fireworks displays.

Over the past 10 years, the cumulative number of attendees at our organized events has exceeded approximately 665,000, with over 1,000 artists (100 groups) from Japan and abroad participating. Our company goes beyond mere event operation, creating unique and passionate experiences by handling everything from planning and production to operation.

Traditional regional revitalization and cultural recovery have focused on the creation of "things" such as buildings. However, with "SBI MUSIC CIRCUS," which can attract entire content, it is possible to draw people from Japan and abroad to the region and create repeat visitors. Through experiences that fuse music, fireworks, food, fashion, and nature, we will generate "economic effects" from "experiences" and contribute to the circulation and development of the regional economy.
