Persona 5 To Hold Special “Big Band” Concert In KL This June

by Hanan Khair
April 13, 2026

Fans of Persona 5 and Japanese RPGs, this is not a drill! Look forward to a spectacular night as the Persona 5 Special Big Band Concert Asia Tour 2026 arrives on 18th June 2026 at Mega Star Arena in Kuala Lumpur. Celebrating the music of the globally acclaimed hit game Persona 5, this concert reimagines its iconic soundtrack through a bold and sophisticated big and jazz performance, featuring approximately 30 top-tier musicians from the United States and Japan.

The concert is helmed by renowned arranger and music director Charlie Rosen, a two-time Grammy and Tony Award winner, known for his work with the acclaimed jazz orchestra The 8-Bit Big Band. Joining him is Lyn, the original vocalist behind Persona 5’s signature tracks, delivering fan-favourite songs live on stage with powerful vocals that have defined the game’s musical identity.

The ensemble also features leading musicians from New York’s vibrant jazz scene alongside Japan’s top performers selected by world-renowned trumpeter Eric Miyashiro, creating a truly international and high-calibre musical line-up. 

From Game Soundtrack to Global Stage

With over 22 million copies sold worldwide, Persona 5 has become one of the most celebrated titles in the Persona series, widely praised for its distinctive soundtrack composed by Shoji Meguro.

Blending jazz, funk, and soul, the music has resonated far beyond the gaming community. The Persona 5 Special Big Band Concert premiered in Japan had overwhelming demand, with tickets selling out instantly and additional shows added to meet fan demand. The production has also been featured at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival Japan, sharing the stage with jazz legends and earning acclaim from both music lovers and gamers alike.
