As the hour of darkness approaches, SEGA launches Persona Live 2026: Awakenings for the first time in the United States, spotlighting Lyn Inaizumi, Lotus Juice, and others.

After the triumph of the Persona Live Tour throughout Asia, SEGA and Atlus introduce Persona Live 2026: Awakenings, bringing together US fans for the inaugural opportunity to delve into the Persona universe through its spectacular music. Set to take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood from January 23 – 24, 2026, numerous beloved artists will showcase well-known tracks from Persona 3, Persona 5, and more during the performances.

As a Megami Tensei spin-off, Revelations: Persona launched in 1996 as a dungeon-crawling JRPG, following a group of high school youths on a mission to rescue their world using the mystical power of Persona. However, with the advent of Persona 3 in 2006, the franchise found its unique identity by incorporating life simulation to juggle responsibilities as a high school student and SEES leader, Social Links to deepen connections with friends, and an outstanding soundtrack. The third game significantly influenced the series we recognize today, especially with the subsequent releases of Persona 4 and Persona 5.

Previously concentrated in Asia, Persona Live 2026: Awakenings marks the first occasion that the Persona Music Experience has come to the United States to gather fans in celebration and enjoyment of their beloved Persona music performed by popular artists. The artists set to perform at the events on January 23 – 24, 2026, include:

– Lyn Inaizumi – Vocalist from the Persona 5 series
– Azumi Takahashi – Vocalist from Persona 3 Reload
– Lotus Juice – Rapper and singer from Persona 3 and Persona 3 Reload
– Toshiki Konishi – Composer and guitarist from the Atlus Sound Team

Initially, Persona Live 2026: Awakenings was planned to feature two performances on January 24, but due to the immense interest, a third show will occur on January 23, 2026.

Fans who are excited to attend the thrilling Persona Live 2026: Awakenings can buy General tickets through the Ticketmaster website, following the pre-sale tickets available on November 5th. Are there any particular soundtracks you hope to experience? And why is it Mass Destruction?
