Ultraman Tiga's 30th anniversary in 2026 has brought the series back into public view through several coordinated events. The original cast reunited for the first time in 26 years at the Ultraman Tiga 30th Premium Stage on July 10 at Suginami Public Hall. Hiroshi Nagano, Takami Yoshimoto, Mio Takaki, and Akitoshi Ōtaki appeared together, the first such gathering since the 2000 film 'Ultraman Tiga: The Final Odyssey.' The event included a reading, appearances by the three Ultraman Tiga forms, and a performance of V6's 'TAKE ME HIGHER.'

Access to the series expanded the same month. U-Next began streaming Ultraman Tiga and Ultraman Dyna for the first time on July 10 in HD remastered editions, alongside related films and a 30th anniversary stage event. A limited-time lineup of 23 classic Ultraman and Tsuburaya titles ran from July 1 to August 31.

A separate collaboration brought Tiga into the Beyblade X line. Takara Tomy announced the BEYBLADE X and Ultraman Tiga collaboration starter set, releasing September 12, 2026. The set uses interchangeable parts to replicate Tiga's three forms, includes a special launcher and a sticker, and will be displayed at events in July before its release in eight Asian regions.
