YOSHIKI's Full-Scale Comeback World Tour Chapter 2: LA Concert Day 2 at the World-Renowned Walt Disney Concert Hall to be Broadcast Exclusively Live on WOWOW!

YOSHIKI, the leader, drummer, pianist, and composer of X JAPAN, continues his global activities. After undergoing his third neck surgery in 2024 and a long period of rehabilitation, he held a three-night classical concert series titled "Eve of Awakening" in Tokyo in April 2026, signaling his comeback. Now, WOWOW will exclusively broadcast live the second day of the two-night performance at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, which marks the second chapter of his classical world tour that began in Japan. The following week, a Japanese-subtitled version will be broadcast and distributed.

For this performance, YOSHIKI commented on his official website that he wants to challenge himself with expressions that go beyond the conventional framework, not just classical piano playing. He expressed his enthusiasm to deliver an "emotional, powerful, and explosive stage." YOSHIKI has previously created concerts as a comprehensive art form, fusing music with visual expression, ballet, and various other arts.

The venue, the Walt Disney Concert Hall, is an iconic concert hall in Los Angeles, counted among the world's premier music halls alongside Carnegie Hall in New York and the Royal Albert Hall in London. Known as the home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, it boasts unique architectural beauty by world-renowned architect Frank Gehry and world-class acoustics. In this special space, YOSHIKI will present a new stage that fuses his unique classical approach, including X JAPAN songs, with contemporary expression. Experience its charm on WOWOW.
