Hatsune Miku POP UP SHOP in TOWER RECORDS coming soon!
The newest exciting shop collab featuring the piapro characters isn’t far away, after just being announced today, October 1st 2020. This time we’re going to see our favourite group of 6 rocking it out as a hardcore (aka super cute) music band, hence why the event will be taking place inside TOWER RECORDS stores, in collaboration with Amnibus! TOWER RECORDS is a store specialsing in anything music related – including CDs, books and magazines, as well as merchandise for the wide variety of musical artists who have their music housed there. With Miku and the gang being the main representatives of one of the most prolific musical technological developments in our lifetime, we shouldn’t be surprised that this collaboration is taking place. Keep reading to find out what’ll be going down during this event!
The main illustration for this event was created by tarou2, who you may recognise from their sub-visual illustration they made for the Hatsune Miku GALAXY LIVE show which took place last weekend!

It’s probably useful to mention that, despite this event going forward in Japan, it is still necessary to adhere to any coronavirus guidelines. TOWER RECORDS asks that you make sure to wear a facemask at ALL times when visiting their stores, to wash your hands at any designated washing stations or bring your own hand sanitiser and use it, to try your best to socially distance in-store. Your temperature will be taken at the entrance, and if your temperature reaches or exceeds 37.5 degrees, you will not be allowed to enter the store. This also goes for anyone having any other flu-like symptoms.
