MIKUEC2020 Fan-made Livestream Announced For This Month!
We wouldn’t blame you if you thought this was an official online concert, what with the spectacular promotional art and professionalism of their event organisation… but no, MIKUEC is indeed a completely fan-run Miku concert, courtesy of The University of Electro-Communications Official Circle “Virtual Live Study Group“! They also held a similar event in November last year, and this year’s livestream looks to be just as fantastic! Their concerts are typically shown the “Chofu Festival” at their university, but this year they’ll be going online for everyone to enjoy. You too could be part of the fun, so read on to find out more about this super awesome event!
About MIKUEC2020
This year their event is being held online, since the team behind it have been able to develop their very own stages and servers completely from scratch!
Date and time: November 21st at 8:00 PM JST (the event space will open from 6:00 PM JST)
Price: This event is free! (but limited to a maximum of 1500 spectators)
The theme for this year is 「カラフル」/ “Colourful”, and as you’ll see, the main visual (created by illustrator Lγ.7) certainly doesn’t scrimp on colour:
Here we have the promotional video for the whole event (EN captions available)…
…And here is the theme song for this year’s performance – “Nanairo” feat Hatsune Miku:
