Cocomi Appointed Ambassador for Major IP Culture Event in Hong Kong; Star-Studded Lineup Including Yoko Takahashi and MIYAVI Announced

It has been announced that "CON-CON(R) HONG KONG 2026," a large-scale IP (intellectual property) cultural event, will be held over two days on April 4th and 5th, 2026, at AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong.

Based on the concept of "CONVENTION FOR CONNECTION," this event aims to establish a cross-border communication platform centered on IP. Under three core themes—Mix Some NOISE!, Mix Some FUN!, and Mix Some MUSIC!—the venue will feature a diverse range of content that blends anime, music, fashion, and cutting-edge technology.

The music festival, a major highlight of the event, will feature a powerful lineup of established Japanese artists, including Yoko Takahashi, Maki Ohguro, MIYAVI, Maki Goto, Do As Infinity, and FLOW. Joining them are Togenashi Togeari from the anime Girls Band Cry, next-generation female artist Mahiru, and popular independent VTuber Unnämed, making their first-ever music festival appearance. With additional performances by Hong Kong’s top stars Anson Kong (AK@Mirror) and Tyson Yoshi, the festival is set to energize the Asian music scene.

In the exhibition area, world-renowned IPs such as Mobile Suit Gundam, Godzilla, Jujutsu Kaisen, Haikyu!!, and Yu-Gi-Oh! will collaborate with both local Hong Kong and international brands. Highlights include the launch of a first-ever collaboration with CASETiFY, life-sized character panels, and photo spots featuring massive LED displays. Visitors can also enjoy immersive music experiences powered by Sony’s technology, as well as interactive content such as the exclusive sale of official match balls from a collaboration between the J.LEAGUE and a famous soccer anime IP.

Cocomi, a flutist and voice actress, has been appointed as the event ambassador. Known as an avid anime fan herself, she will attend the opening ceremony. Additionally, artist COIN PARKING DELIVERY has been appointed as the Creative Director. His iconic character "Mr. Shirai" merges with the "CON-CON®" logo to create a new visual symbol that will decorate the venue.
