Music Made.
Lives Changed.
20 Years of JMC.
Overview
For two decades, JMC has created something rare — a space where music brings people together, builds confidence, and creates lasting connection. Through over 875 workshops and 200,000+ students, JMC has helped shape lives across Japan and beyond.
Together with Sano, Kimiko, Daisuke, Bill, Robyn, and the entire JMC and Heart Global team, this event is a celebration for everyone who has been part of the journey — on stage, behind the scenes, and in the communities that made it possible.
At its core, JMC exists to, “provide society with learning opportunities that will enable children to thrive in the world to come.” Rock The World 2026 is a chance to experience that again — together.
Kikkoman Arena, located in Nagareyama City, Chiba Prefecture, Kikkoman Arena will serve as the central venue for Rock The World 2026. The arena is a 20-minute walk from JMC’s rehearsal studio and easily accessible via Nagareyama Central Park Station on the Tsukuba Express, just under a 10-minute walk away.
