After debuting in Los Angeles last year, Fantastic Reality — a three-day mixed reality 3D live festival featuring independent virtual and VTuber talents — is returning this summer.
The fest will happen at Vermont Hollywood Theater in Los Angeles on July 2-4, with the three nights each featuring a unique lineup.
Night one will present Fantastic Reality: Found Futures presented by IRIAM, a show headlined by VTubers Matara Kan, kson and Lilypichu, along with the debut of Virtual Signal, a group being billed as the first rock band made up of entirely of virtual talent. The event will also be Matara Kan’s first live concert, Lilypichu’s first live in-person concert as a VTuber and first performances by Virtual Signal and its lead singer Emilya Fell.
Night two of Fantastic Reality will feature Anibash: Crossroads, a co-production with dance music label Asahi Crew, known for their high energy Tokyo-style club rave parties. Day three will be a matinee performance of Doki Doki: Rewind Time, a concert co-produced, curated and headlined by Vtuber Dokibird. Organizers note that the combined cross-platform social reach of the participating talents exceeds 24 million. Additional Fantastic Reality artists will be announced in the coming months.
Tickets for Fantastic Reality are on sale now, with phase two ticket sale with GA and VIP options opening on April 28 at 4 p.m. PT. Tickets are available here.
“Fantastic Reality strives to create community through inspirational experiences showcasing the world’s top virtual talents” Fantastic Reality co-producer Spencer Burnham says in a statement. “We’re thrilled to have internationally-recognized virtual stars Dokibird, Matara Kan, kson, Lilypichu and friends perform with our house band in an awe-inspiring, intimate irl space.”
Fantastic Reality 2026 follows a successful 2025 debut that featured performances by virtual star Ironmouse, along with a host of other VTuber virtual talent.
