The new ticketing system reinforces the event’s role in cultivating a deeper love for Japanese culture and artistic expression in Singapore as 2009. EOY Music, Comics and Arts Festival has always aimed to spread the love for J-culture locally and to proudly celebrate homegrown talent.
This year scales up to bring those same goals to life on a larger and more impactful scale. Explore a plethora of performances on the main stage, welcoming performers from singapore and across Asia. From Japan comes the talented singer and harajuku fashion model Haruna Luna, known for her anime theme songs for Fate/Zero and Sword Art Online, alongside Ariku, a dynamic Odorite making his Singapore debut.
