On July 4th, 2025, the memorable birthday of GACKT, the “Demon King’s Birthday Banquet 2025” was held in grand style at the Westin Hotel Tokyo!!
[Lunch Banquet] [Dinner Banquet]
Two performances, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. Each performance has a different content, so you can enjoy it twice!!
There are apparently many people who want to get both a day and an evening ticket to enjoy it twice!?
So what will the “Demon King’s Birthday Banquet 2025” be like…?
The show begins…
When GACKT appears, the whole venue cheers as he slowly walks through the tables and makes his way to the stage. Only GACKT knows the route!? (laughs)
GACKT passes in front of me. The excitement was already building from the opening, which was so thrilling that you could reach out and touch him if you wanted!!
The host was Yamada Hisashi, and the event started with an interview looking back on recent LIVEs, followed by congratulatory comments from famous people from various fields and a quiz about GACKT. Everyone in the venue participated in the game, and the last person left would receive a wonderful gift of a photo with GACKT♡
And… it was finally time for a birthday cake surprise!!!
This time, what a surprise!!
In the afternoon session, Kiryuin Sho and in the evening session, Aikawa Nanase appeared with a birthday cake!!
GACKT looked happy but couldn’t hide his embarrassment as he blew out the candles, saying “Whew!!” and responded to the thunderous applause from the audience with the most amazing smile.
Then, for the acoustic live performance, members YOU, MiA, HIROTO, MIZ, and Toshiyuki Muranaka appeared.
Along the way, there was an unexpected accident, but GACKT managed to turn it into a laugh (laughs).
The venue was filled with laughter from start to finish, and before you know it, the time had come to an end.
There were moments of tears during the last song, but by the end, they were smiling.
GACKT: Thank you!
And with those words, GACKT left the venue.
And so, this year’s birthday celebration came to a close amidst great excitement!!
