Fanplus Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Gen Sato), which operates fan sites for music artists, has selected the winner of the Grand Prix at the "Fan+ Live Audition 2026," a live performance audition held through its fan club platform "Fan+Kit," after a rigorous selection process.
In the final live judging held on July 31st, 2026 (Friday), "Suiheisen" won the grand prize, receiving not only the judges' evaluations but also enthusiastic support from general users through voting!
The Grand Prix winner, "Suiheisen," will perform as the opening act on the first day (September 19th) of the large-scale outdoor rock festival "Nakatsugawa WILD WOOD 2026," which will be held in Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture on September 19th (Sat) and 20th (Sun), 2026.
Furthermore, as a new initiative, we introduced a voting system utilizing NFTs for the public voting in this audition. In addition to performance evaluations by the judges, the system, built on an immutable blockchain, visualizes "the real enthusiasm and support of the fans." Through this unique hybrid judging process, we were able to select a grand prize winner who was unanimously supported by both fans and judges.
Furthermore, in recognition of their outstanding performance during the final live judging round, "Banshimoku" has been awarded the "WILD WOOD Special Jury Prize." Banshimoku will be performing as the opening act on the second day (September 20th) of "Nakatsugawa WILD WOOD 2026."
Please look forward to the passionate performances of these two groups, taking place on a stage in Nakatsugawa, Gifu, surrounded by magnificent nature!
