Miku Expo

Miku Expo is a series of world tours organized by Crypton Future Media starring the virtual singing software character Hatsune Miku. The performances include notable user-created Vocaloid songs and digital choreography of Miku dancing, projected onto glass screens. The tour started on May 28, 2014 in Jakarta, Indonesia, with new shows added every year, with the exception of 2021, 2022 and 2023 where Hatsune Miku-related events were held virtually and livestreamed on platforms such as Twitch, YouTube and Niconico. In-person Miku Expo shows were resumed on April 4, 2024 in Vancouver, Canada. As of 2024, the tour consisted of 77 shows spanning the continents of Asia, North America and Europe.

The latest scheduled Miku Expo show is set on November 2, 2024 in Berlin, Germany.

2010s
The first Miku Expo was held in 2014 in Jakarta, Indonesia and in the United States, specifically in Los Angeles and New York City. The theme song for the tour was "Sharing The World", produced by Bighead.

2020s
Miku Expo 2020 took place in Europe on January 11 to 28, in London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, and Barcelona. A U.S. and Canada tour was originally scheduled to take place in April and May, but it was postponed to the following year after initially rescheduling to September and October, and later cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In October 2020, a virtual livestream performance online was announced and funded by a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that ran for 2 months starting on November 12, 2020, and raised over ¥60,000,000, more than double its intended target of ¥25,000,000 and took place on June 6, 2021.

Miku Expo Rewind was held on June 5, 2022. Unlike previous years, this event consisted of a specially-curated compilation of performances of songs that were recorded at past Miku Expo concerts, many of which had not been released beforehand. In addition, a variety of online sub-events, exhibitions, and workshops were also held in conjunction with the event. A second online event, "Miku Expo Rewind+" was also held on November 6 of the same year.

Miku Expo VR took place on November 12, 2023.

In September 2023, it was announced that Miku Expo 2024 will celebrate their 10th anniversary with a tour across North America, with tour dates scheduled to take place from April to May. In March of the following year, it was also announced that there would also be a tour in Europe, scheduled in October and November. The 2024 expo was heavily criticized online, due to the fact that Miku was displayed on a large LED screen, rather than a hologram from previous years.
