Message from Tatsuya Nomura (Chair of the MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN Executive Committee)
First, I’d like to thank everyone who has supported MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN.
From our debut in Kyoto to last year’s event in Tokyo, we’ve seen how music can bring people together across borders. The incredible performances and enthusiasm surrounding the awards have reinforced our ambition to connect Japanese and Asian music with the world.
As we prepare for our third edition in 2027, we’re building on that momentum while continuing to evolve the awards. In an increasingly connected music landscape, we want to celebrate the creativity, passion and energy that make music so special, and create an event that everyone involved can be proud of.
We look forward to bringing the global music community together once again in 2027.
