Nippon Genki Project `SUPER ENERGY`

Tokyo, Japan

May 2017

​Empire was proud to help produce the "SUPER ENERGY" fashion event for Kansai Yamamoto, one of the most famous Japanese designers, at the dynamic Roppongi Hills Arena.

The day-long festival is part of a massive effort to lift Japan out of the post-3/11 tsunami doldrums and energize it as it gets ready to host the 2020 Olympic Games.

The show featured approximately 250 big names, including Hip Hop artist, Tyga, actor/film director, Yusuke Iseya, model, Akimoto Kira, model/talent, Ahn Mika, model/artist, Tsuchiya Anna, actress/photgrapher, Miyuki Matsuda, movie commentator/talent, LiLiCo, and many more. The show also featured original clothing from Kansai Yamamoto’s archive collection and a range of performances that lit up the stage.

Other highlights of the show were energetic performances from the African Percussion Group "Wagan Ndiaye Rose with sophie ker gi" and the 100 brass band and dance department of Gakuen Hachioji Senior High School. It was a night of electric stage performances, unique acts, and various workshops backed by the voice of Kansai Yamamoto.

The family-friendly "SUPER ENERGY" event drew around 10,000 people.

Empire is a major producer of public events and is very proud to be a partner of this year's celebration.
