ESPERA Adds Kizuna AI, Harusaruhi and Seven Others to VRChat Paid Night
The paid night carries a KAMITSUBAKI STUDIO singer and Kizuna AI alongside RIOT MUSIC's own roster, which puts the festival's draw on names built outside the AdHoc world it is staged in.

The November 22 paid night of ESPERA -AdHoc Live Festival 2026-, a three-day VRChat music festival co-hosted by RIOT MUSIC and Culture Entertainment, will feature Shirakawa Shirose, Tsukishiro Rui, Doo and Sakujaku of HAMMER COLLECTIVE, kaza, Shikibu Meguri, Kiwa Suu, Yomi, Harusaruhi and Kizuna AI. The lineup was announced October 24. The 20th and 21st are free performances; the 22nd is ticketed through ZAIKO, for in-VRChat attendance or streaming.
Two ticket types split the audience inside VRChat. The S Ticket puts a viewer in the instance the artist enters, so both sides can see each other. The On-site Ticket puts a viewer in a separate instance where the artist's appearance and audio are relayed from the S Ticket instance, and the artist side is presumed unable to see those participants.
The venue is the VRChat world Anyone's Casual Streaming World AdHoc, built for music and streaming, where RIOT MUSIC runs an open mic every Wednesday and supports VTubers entering VRChat. XR creative studio MIGIRI handles live production. RIOT MUSIC, an affiliate of Brave group, is pushing its VRChat business in 2026.
