Yamamoto Sayaka, who built an era as the absolute ace of NMB48, made her solo debut as a singer-songwriter in 2016. Since then, she has actively pursued her music career with her strong vocal skills and songwriting talent, marking her 10th anniversary as a solo artist this year—an important milestone. With over 2 million followers on X (formerly Twitter), she enjoys immense support across generations.

Today, July 14 (Tuesday)—coinciding with both the 10th anniversary of her solo career and her birthday—Yamamoto Sayaka will hold her first-ever concert at Nippon Budokan. U-NEXT has announced the exclusive live streaming of this special night on Saturday, September 5.
