On May 6, 2026, the rising Junior group KEY TO LIT —Taisho Iwasaki, Mizuki Inoue, Reia Nakamura, Soya Igari, and Taiko Sasaki— officially announced their second arena tour since forming. Titled KEY TO LIT Arena Tour 2026 NEO CLASSICS, it spans thirteen dates across five major venues in Japan. The schedule is as follows:
- Jul 11 (Sat) ~ Jul 12 (Sun) | Toki Messe Niigata Center – Niigata Prefecture
- Jul 31 (Fri) ~ Aug 1 (Sat) ~ Aug 2 (Mon) | GLION ARENA KOBE – Hyogo Prefecture
- Aug 20 (Thu) ~ Aug 21 (Fri) ~ Aug 22 (Sat) ~ Aug 23 (Sun) | Ariake Arena – Tokyo
- Oct 3 (Sat) ~ Oct 4 (Sun) | Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall A – Fukuoka
- Oct 9 (Fri) ~ Oct 10 (Sat) | Sekisui Heim Super Arena – Miyagi Prefecture
Tickets are priced at 8,500円 (tax included), with the lottery-based registration period for fan club members running from May 7 (Thu) at 11:00 AM to May 12 (Tue) at 12:00 PM JST. For more information, including performance start times and access information, please visit the official website.
Just like with their first-ever tour last year, KEY TO LIT Arena Tour 2025 WAKE UP THE FOOL, the members slowly teased NEO CLASSICS through clues and hints on various posts across social media in the lead-up to the announcement, making fan participation and riddle solving not just a fun gimmick, but also a key (pun intended) part of the group’s identity. The tour announcement was made through a FAMILY CLUB online livestream in a day-late celebration of Children’s Day.
The concept of “NEW CLASSICS” refers to the group wanting to combine the classical or traditional with the new. They want to carry forward what has connected generations while adding their own color to it. Mixing in the unique style of KEY TO LIT with past history, the five-member unit aims to create a brand new tradition with this exciting upcoming tour.
