hololive production will hold ホロライブわちゃわちゃ学園祭 (hololive Wachawacha Gakuensai), a two-day variety event, at Keio Arena TOKYO on Saturday, November 14 and Sunday, November 15, 2026. COVER Corporation describes it as hololive’s first large-scale variety event. Sixteen talents are scheduled across the two days, and viewers outside Japan can follow the show through a paid ZAIKO stream, with some limits on how tickets and goods are sold.

What was announced
COVER announced the event on August 15, 2026. The official event site lists three programme segments: a campus-life senryu (17-syllable poem) segment, a red team versus white team “hololive stamina king” contest, and a special edition of “Polka’s Legend”, a field-trip report. The page does not say which segments take place on which day.
The lineup is split in two groups of eight. Each talent is presented as a student ID card on the event site, in keeping with the school-festival theme. The event is supported by Animate Cafe. On October 20 the organizers updated the site with the lineup of goods sold on the day, the food truck menu and an area map. The food trucks serve collaboration menus.
Venue seats were priced at 14,300 yen (SS), 11,000 yen (S), 8,800 yen (A) and 7,150 yen (B), and seats bundled with goods cost 19,800 yen (SS) and 16,500 yen (S). Fan club and e+ lottery presales have already ended. The general sale continues until November 13 and is limited to two tickets per person per show, with names printed on the tickets.
Time zones
Day 1 starts at 17:00 JST on November 14, which is 08:00 UTC, 09:00 CET and 03:00 EST on November 14, or 00:00 PST on November 14. Day 2 starts at 16:30 JST on November 15, which is 07:30 UTC, 08:30 CET, 02:30 EST on November 15 and 23:30 PST on November 14. The conversions use standard time because daylight saving time in the United States ends on November 1.
What it means for overseas viewers
The ZAIKO stream is the most practical option from outside Japan. A ZAIKO account is required both to buy and to watch, and viewing links do not work with other accounts. Viewers can rewatch the archive any number of times until the deadline, but cannot rewind during the live broadcast. Tickets cannot be changed, cancelled or refunded unless the organizer postpones or cancels the event.
The event site does not state whether venue tickets can be bought from abroad. The e+ general sale requires an e+ member account, a Japanese mobile phone number for verification and a smartphone with the e+ app, because tickets are issued only as smart tickets. Overseas fans will probably find this difficult. Streaming tickets bundled with goods are sold only to customers living in Japan and close earlier, on November 28 at 23:59 JST, and goods cannot be shipped overseas. Screen recording and audio recording are prohibited.
What we don’t know yet
- Whether the programme segments are assigned to a specific day.
- Whether an English-language streaming interface or subtitles will be provided.
- Whether physical goods from the event will be sold through the overseas shop afterwards.
- The digital perks for ticket holders, which the organizers say will be sent by email about a week after each show, subject to change.
