Following a series of tweets posted today, we know a bit more about Libera participation at the Hibiya Music Festival.

Libera will perform on Saturday June 3rd, on the 'YAON' stage.
There are 12 different artists announced to perform on that stage on June 3rd.
The time schedule says the show will start at 18:30 and will end at 20:30.

With 120 minutes to be split among 12 artists, it is now sure that libera will not perform a full concert of 20 songs.

Is it still unknown how large the libera group will be.

In the UK there’s a school holiday going from 30th May to 3rd June (following the the Whit Sunday bank holiday) so it just about fits that the kids could be out of school at around that time to attend this concert.

It’s a long way to go for one concert, and on the last day of their school holiday too.😳

The Hibiya Music Festival performance now is published on the Libera official site.
No new info from what we already know.

So far it's the only public event that is announced for their stay in June in Japan.

So, I guess they are doing a full concert inside a venue that is associated with the music festival. Are they also making an appearance at the outdoor venue to sing a few songs? Otherwise, I hope they are able to appear on radio or tv to promote the album and maybe even sing a couple songs. The concert will be near the end of the week-long break, so hopefully that will allow them some time to get over the jet lag.

A small update was released today by Libera Records regarding Libera's participation in this June performance in Japan.

We know that Libera is going to participate in the outdoor concert on Saturday June 3rd.
They will have 2 hours of stage to share with 11 other artists.
For the moment we do not know yet if the group on tour will be complete or partial, nor how many songs they will be able to sing.


Today's news from Libera Records is the announcement of Libera's participation in a 'ceremony' and a press conference to be held on Wednesday, May 31 at 11:45 AM (Japan time) somewhere in Tokyo.
The press conference will be dedicated to the new album '絆 FOREVER'.
No details on what the 'ceremony' will consist of.
The set will last 30 minutes, during which Libera will sing two songs.


Access to the ceremony and press conference will be open to the public but in very limited numbers : 15 people.
10 people will be chosen by draw among those who will have bought the Japanese CD and who will have completed a registration procedure sending a postcard with a coupon present in the CD box.
There will also be a draw of 5 people among the members of the Japanese Fan Club who will have registered.

Since it's going to be a press conference, there will certainly be a few photos circulating :)

From what I found out, there is a live streaming online and you can watch for free using the 31-days free trial: https://hibiyamusicfes.jp/2023/how_to_e ... aming.html . Apparently, there is also a period where you can watch it after the festival has ended but some songs may not be aired. I'm definitely looking forward to the live streaming! Hope I manage to catch Libera at the right time though!

Also one of the songs they are going to sing is "For The Future" (source: https://hibiyamusicfes.jp/2023/lineup/profile/libera/). I wonder if there'll be different soloists this time since some of the boys like Koji can't possibly sing the treble parts anymore..

This article says:
"On Saturday 3 June, a group from Libera will perform on the main stage at the Hibiya Kokaido festival in Tokyo.".

No certainty yet, but this mention 'group from' suggests that it will not be the usual complete touring group that will go to the Hibiya festival, but a smaller group.

We should know about it on may 31st, at the press conference.

Wonder if it will be similar to when a small group went to Japan to perform with that ice skater in 2016?

Libera Records posted on the socials a short video of 9 boys. Very likely the group that will perform at the Hibiya festival.

Edit : in fact there are 10. Victor is in the group, even though not visible on the video below.
Joseph, Frederick M, Mitchell, Daniel, Thomas M, Luca, Nathan, Frederick H, Morgan and Victor.

It's a reduced group, so it is now clear that they will perform only few songs and not a full concert. With only 2 hours show to split among 12 artists, there was no real question about it. Perhaps 4 or 5 songs I guess.

The post from Libera Records also says they will be on TV tomorrow Tuesday at about 09:20 Japan time. Meaning they are already arrived. Likely they flew this week-end. They will perform two songs from the Forever album: Kizuna and Far Away.

Could be that his voice is in a state of flux right now because it’s still in the process of deepening.
Also, remember that Nathaniel was able to sing alto long after his voice broke. Same with Taichi. Josh Madine still hits some pretty high notes if you listen to his current music.
This is good news if it means Daniel can prolong his time with Libera just as Nathaniel did.

A few screen captures for the Fuji TV airing.
Hopefully a good quality video will be put online soon.

They performed abridged versions of Far Away and Kizuna.
Then a short interview with Daniel, Frederick H and Nathan speaking.
