The first Pretty Cure virtual concert will be held on December 9th and 10th of this year. The concert will feature the third-generation Yes! PreCure 5, the fifth-generation HeartCatch PreCure!, and the seventh-generation Smile PreCure! They will be performing many classic songs from the series.
In addition to these beautiful girls from the anime, this concert will also feature virtual idol performances, including Hololive’s Nakiri Ayame and Omaru Polka, Nijisanji's Joe Rikiichi and Elu, Inuyama Tamaki, Siro, and the OG Kizuna AI — often credited as the very first VTuber.

This is an absolutely star-studded lineup, and many fans expressed surprise that this Pretty Cure concert is not just a single act, but a full-on music festival for virtual idols! The performance will be divided into two parts: the Music Stage and the Virtual Character Show. The celebrities mentioned above will be featured in the Music Stage portion, while the lineup of the other stage is a mystery to be revealed in the near future.
As for how to get tickets, if you want to watch the event via ZAIKO live streaming on a smartphone or computer, you can purchase a single-day ticket for 4,800 yen or a two-day ticket for 12,000 yen. If you want to experience the performance more immersively, however, and actually be in the concert, you can join through VRChat with a VR headset by getting either a single-day ticket for 6,500 yen or a two-day ticket for 15,400 yen. Tickets will go on sale on October 25th.
