Web Creator Podcast Day 2025
On September 13, 2025, an exciting event is set to take place in Harajuku – the Web Creator Podcast Day 2025. This one-day event will bring together 11 popular podcasts by web creators, all broadcasting live from a studio in Harajuku. The event aims to celebrate the growing interest in audio content creation and its evolution in Japan.
Podcasts have seen substantial growth in Japan, with an average usage rate of 15.7% among all age groups. Notably, among teenagers, the rate skyrockets to 32.8%, while 25% of those in their twenties are also regular listeners. Interestingly, almost half of all podcast users reportedly listen to three or more shows regularly. This increase has led many content creators, who once relied heavily on text media like blogs and notes, to diversify their platforms to include audio and video formats.
The Web Creator Podcast Day 2025 event is a response to this evolution, showcasing the power of audio storytelling. While many Japanese podcasts maintain a strong resemblance to traditional radio formats, this event will push the boundaries, exploring the possibilities of live broadcasting and breaking away from the pre-recorded nature of most podcasts.
One of the highlights of the event will be the participation of 'Himajin Programmer's Weekend Engineering Lessons', which frequently ranks in the top 10 of the technology category. Joining this podcast will be other well-loved shows, presented by talented creators from various disciplines such as design, engineering, and directing. As they share their insights on industry challenges, future developments, AI applications, management strategies, and vital but often overlooked themes, attendees will get to experience a raw and authentic exchange that rarely appears on social media.
The event promises to be inclusive and accessible, featuring live streaming across multiple platforms, including YouTube Live, Facebook Live, and X. This multi-faceted approach will ensure that audiences can engage with the discussions and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the event, no matter where they are.
