The Uma Musume Pretty Derby 7th EVENT WORLD TOUR THE STAGE in TOKYO was held June 20-21, 2026, at Ariake Arena. The first day featured over 20 songs, sparklers, flames, and falling flower petals. A giant stage about 8 meters tall appeared for the seventh song, "UMA IN AMERICA," and secret guest Manami Aimi, who plays Casino Drive, joined the performance. Several cast members, including Shuri Umizato, made their live stage debut.
The first day of the Uma Musume 7th live at Ariake Arena used only a main stage, but filled it with sparklers, flames, and falling flower petals across about half of the 20-plus songs. The cast wore red leather long coats with embroidery and epaulettes, and the lighting kept the venue in red throughout. The biggest moment came at the seventh song: the LED screen split open to reveal a giant stage about 8 meters tall, and secret guest Manami Aimi appeared as Casino Drive. Several performers, including Shuri Umizato, made their Uma Musume live stage debut. Umizato said she was nervous but was encouraged by senior cast members before going on.
