YOSHIKI to Hold 'YOSHIKI CLASSICAL 2026' at the Prestigious Walt Disney Concert Hall in the U.S.; Long-Awaited Two-Night Return to America Marks the Second Chapter of His World Tour Following Cervical Spine Surgery

On Thursday, March 26 (local time), YOSHIKI announced that he will hold "YOSHIKI CLASSICAL 2026 IN LOS ANGELES WALT DISNEY CONCERT HALL 'SCARLET NIGHT & VIOLET NIGHT'" on July 16 and 17, 2026, at the prestigious Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. This will mark his full-scale return to the U.S. stage following his third cervical spine surgery in 2024.

This performance serves as the second chapter of his classical world tour, which kicks off with "YOSHIKI CLASSICAL 2026: Eve of Awakening - Tokyo 3 Nights, Chapter 1 to the World," held over three days starting April 3 in Tokyo. The grand stage, where YOSHIKI's unique blend of delicacy and intensity intersects, will unfold over two nights at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, renowned for its world-class acoustics.

The concert titles are "SCARLET NIGHT" and "VIOLET NIGHT." Each will feature a different setlist, creating a one-of-a-kind experience that delves into the essence of YOSHIKI's artistry across both performances.

YOSHIKI commented on the upcoming performances: "I am deeply honored to perform at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. This concert holds a very special meaning for me at this point in my life. After my surgery, there was a time when I didn't know if I would ever be able to return to the stage. I believe these two days will be a time to truly feel my own power of recovery and the bond I share with my fans. Of course, I plan to play classical piano, but I also want to challenge myself with expressions that go beyond traditional boundaries. While exploring new sounds and ideas, I want to deliver a stage that is emotional, powerful, and explosive."

YOSHIKI continues to create expressions that transcend existing boundaries, freely traversing rock, classical, film, and aesthetics. This Los Angeles performance will be a stage that opens a new chapter for the world, having overcome repeated hardships.

The Tokyo performances, which mark the first chapter of the classical world tour, have already generated significant buzz, and the second chapter in Los Angeles is attracting major attention from both domestic and international audiences.
