We support April Dream, an initiative to make April 1st a day to send out dreams. This press release represents the dream of the 'Unleash the Dream Executive Committee'.
The Unleash The Dream Executive Committee (Representative: Morisuke Amano) will hold the experiential event 'Unleash the Dream | A Day to Unleash Dreams' on Sunday, August 16, 2026, at the Shibuya Cultural Center Owada Sakura Hall.
This event is a new stage experience that provides a 'chance to remember dreams and set life in motion' through music, story, and interactive experiences, aimed at modern adults who feel they 'don't have dreams' or 'don't know what they want to do'. The previous performance was held at Suntory Hall with 200 attendees. This second performance will expand to a scale of 700 people to deliver the experience to more people.
[Background] The reality that more than half of adults 'don't have a dream'. Talking about dreams has become 'pressure'.
According to a survey of 14,100 people nationwide (Japan Dream White Paper 2018), currently, only about half (51.9%) of Japanese have dreams, and the average age they gave up on their dreams is 25.4 years old. A 2025 survey by Paidy also showed that less than half of people have dreams, and furthermore, about half of the respondents answered that they 'feel pressure when asked about their dreams'.
In other words, in modern times, 'dreams' are changing into something evaluated by others when spoken of, or something that requires an answer, and are no longer something that can be spoken of naturally as in the past.
Unleash the Dream was born in such a situation as a place to create an opportunity for people who 'cannot have dreams or put them into words' to touch their inner feelings and potential, and for their life's story to start moving again.
[Features] 'Participatory story experience' that doesn't end with just watching
Unlike traditional lectures and live performances, this event has a structure where the audience themselves 'becomes part of the story'.
