Charity Live Event: Remember Girl's Power !! 2026
The vibrant city of Ikebukuro is set to host a significant charity live event, "Remember Girl's Power !! 2026", organized in collaboration with the cancer information platform, Oncoro. This event will take place at the Global Ring Theater in Ikebukuro Nishiguchi Park from September 17th to 20th, drawing significant attention not only for its musical performances but also its critical mission to raise awareness about childhood cancers, particularly among the AYA (Adolescents and Young Adults) generation.
A Growing Tradition
This marks the continuation of an annual tradition that commenced in 2021, where local efforts to spotlight the pressing issues of pediatric cancers and clinical trials have gained momentum. Last year's event successfully attracted over 60,000 participants, utilizing both physical attendance and online streaming, a testament to its impactful reach and community engagement.
Amplifying Voices through Music
The primary objective of the event is to educate and raise awareness about childhood cancers and clinical trials through the universal language of music. The lineup will predominantly feature female artists, echoing the theme of empowerment and resilience. Noteworthy this year is the inclusion of Mimi Tsukino, a nurse and member of the idol group "Kirameki ☆ Unforent", who will serve as the Awareness Ambassador. With her dual role, she will bridge the gap between medical personnel and artists, effectively communicating essential messages to today’s youth.
Contributing to Change
All donations received during the event, alongside profits from merchandise sales minus necessary expenses, will be entirely allocated to organizations and projects devoted to resolving challenges faced by pediatric cancer patients. This charitable initiative aims to fund research support and address critical issues in cancer care and treatment.
Community Impact and Quote from Organizers
A representative from the Toshima Ward remarked on the event’s significance, stating, "The Oncoro Live event is a rare opportunity to enjoy music while gaining insights into pediatric cancers and AYA-related issues, making it a communal endeavor rather than one faced in isolation by patients and their families. We invite a diverse audience, especially young people, to attend and share their support with those coping with cancer. We hope to expand the circle of understanding and support from the cultural and entertainment hub of Ikebukuro."
