Ber air just striked down to October with a packed music ganap. The room buzzes with anticipation as voices mix in a lively blend of Japanese and Tagalog. Suddenly, the house lights dim, a single guitar chord rings out, and the crowd bursts into cheers.
Filipino rock icons, The Itchyworms, are back in Japan! Following their incredible Osaka run in 2023, the band is returning this October for an intimate journey through three dynamic Kansai cities: Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe.
Three Cities, Three Iconic Stage
Feel the energy build as the tour kicks off on October 4 at Panhead Groove in Osaka. T

here, The Itchyworms will represent the Philippines at the Kansai Music Conference, surrounded by international artists and passionate music lovers. Next, follow the music into Kyoto on October 5 for a soul-stirring evening at Kyoto MUSE. Picture sharing the space as the band takes the stage alongside singer-songwriter Reese Lansangan and LA-based artist Ariel, presented by Pintig Productions.
You can lock in your spot right now on the Kyoto Muse Event Page. Finally, ride the wave into Kobe on October 6 for their venue debut at Live Music Club Padoma. Joined once again by Reese Lansangan, the band brings down the house for their final Kansai night. Be part of the moment and grab your tickets on the Live Music Club Padoma Event Page.
An Intimate Music Ground
Forget giant stadium screens and heavy production gimmicks. This tour invites you into a deep, personal connection with the music. The band is stripping everything down to its bare essentials for all three nights. Imagine standing just feet away from the stage, catching every acoustic strum, every drum beat, and every raw vocal harmony in real time.
Without flashy extra effects, the songs hit with pure, authentic power. It feels less like a distant show and more like an exclusive jam session with old friends.
A Growing Love Story In Japan Streets
For The Itchyworms, performing in Japan feels like coming home to family. You can trace their journey from roaring crowds in Tokyo and Saitama to last year’s electric night in Nagoya. With every trip, the bond between the band and local audiences deepens. Looking ahead, you can already envision their sound echoing into new cities—from the warm shores of Okinawa to the streets of Fukuoka and Hokkaido.
But now, all the magic is happening live across Kansai this October. Step into the room, feel the beat, and join the party with #AkinKaNaLangJAPAN2026!
