In celebration of the successful tour conclusion, Dumpling Box is hosting a giveaway with a selection of goods from Ae! group LIVE TOUR 2026 Runway!
Ae! group’s LIVE TOUR 2026 Runway supported their second album, Runway, and marked the group’s first major nationwide arena tour as a four-member lineup consisting of Yoshinori Masakado, Seiya Suezawa, Ken Kojima, and Masaya Sano. The tour spanned 30 performances across eight cities and is estimated to have attracted around 320,000 fans, symbolizing a new chapter for the Kansai-born group. Member
Seiya oversaw the concert’s staging, structure, and costumes, creating a production centered on the “runway” concept.
The show featured a large runway catwalk, a rotating center-stage lift, and arena trolleys, but its emphasis remained on showcasing the group’s versatility through live band performances, dance, vocals, comedy, and close interaction with fans.
The title “Runway” carries multiple meaningsโincluding a fashion runway, an airport runway, a long-jump approach, and a well-worn pathโreflecting the group’s determination to move forward despite change. Rather than ignoring the departure of former member Keita Richard Kusama, the concert embraced the group’s transition, presenting their journey as one of resilience and growth.
Opening with the title album’s lead track “Again,” the concert immediately established themes of renewal and perseverance. The setlist blended new songs with longtime fan favorites, highlighting different sides of Ae! groupโfrom upbeat tracks like “DEKOBOKO LIFE” to stylish performances of “JACKPOT” and “Fashion Killaโก,” and the powerful rock energy of “Hoko.” Throughout, the show balanced polished performances with the humor, spontaneity, and warmth that define the group’s live identity.
The emotional finale centered on “rAy,” accompanied by confetti and the message, “Together, we are one Ae! group,” reinforcing the concert’s themes of unity and forward motion. During the closing remarks, each member reflected on the unit’s future, expressing gratitude to the fans for helping them move forward and sharing ambitions such as performing at a dome venue. An encore performance of “Again” brought the concert full circle, emphasizing that Runway represents not only a tour title but also a promise to continue advancing alongside their supporters.
Overall, Ae! group LIVE TOUR 2026 Runway was a celebration of Ae! group’s resilience, evolution, and commitment to forging a new path together, demonstrating that their story continues to move forward despite the challenges they have faced.
