DEZERT Complete Historic 47-Prefecture Tour, Announce Two New 2026 Tours
DEZERT have reached a major milestone. The Tokyo-based visual rock band has completed their historic first tour of all 47 prefectures in Japan—and they're already looking ahead to their next chapter.
The band celebrated this achievement with a grand finale concert at Makuhari Messe Event Hall, where they delivered 21 songs spanning their catalog. Most notably, they premiered a brand-new track called "音楽" (Music), produced by Ken of L'Arc-en-Ciel, during their first-ever double encore. The song is both a statement piece about the band's relationship with music itself and a love letter to everyone who's walked alongside them—and judging by the crowd sing-along, it landed perfectly.
This was DEZERT's second arena-scale show, following their Japan Budokan performance two years ago, signaling their growing momentum in the Japanese rock scene.
But here's where it gets exciting: immediately after the finale, the band announced two major touring campaigns for 2026.
**First up: The "study" Tour**
This marks the first time DEZERT's beloved "study" concept tour—where they reconstruct and reimagine past album material—will hit Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka. Eight shows are scheduled across May, June, and July 2026, each focusing on different album combinations (titles include "TODAY," "RAINBOW," "The Heart Tree," and "black hole"). Tokyo shows run at Ebisu The Garden Hall; Nagoya at Bottom Line; Osaka at Yogibo META VALLEY. Tickets are ¥7,000–¥8,000 depending on location and seating. The fan club (Himawari-kai) presale runs March 20–31, 2026.
**Second: A Hall Tour After Seven Years**
DEZERT will also tour three major cities (Osaka, Nagoya, Tokyo) in September 2026—their first hall tour in seven years. Dates and full details are coming soon.
For Western fans, DEZERT remain one of Japan's most inventive visual rock acts, blending theatrical aesthetics with genuinely experimental songwriting. If you haven't caught them yet, 2026 looks like the year to pay attention.
