ST. LOUIS, MO – Plus Ultra! My Hero Academia In Concert brings the anime phenomenon to St. Louis on Sunday, October 4 at The Factory! Show time is 7 p.m. (doors open at 6 p.m.) Tickets go on sale this Friday, April 24 at 10 a.m. and can be purchased online at Ticketmaster.com and TheFactorySTL.com.
My Hero Academia In Concert is a brand-new live music experience that brings the power, emotion, and iconic score of the beloved superhero anime phenomenon to the stage. Audiences will see the series’ most unforgettable moments projected on a massive screen while a world-class live ensemble performs composer Yuki Hayashi’s electrifying score in sync, including fan-favorite themes such as “You Say Run” and “You Can Be a Hero.” The tour is part of the franchise’s 10th anniversary celebration.
My Hero Academia in Concert is based on Kōhei Horikoshi’s bestselling manga (which has sold more than 100 million volumes worldwide and generated more than $130 million in box office revenue, and inspired a fandom of more than 4.3 million followers across social media). The music and imagery will unite to recreate the triumphs, struggles, and emotional highs that have defined “My Hero Academia” for a decade, helping make it one of the most watched anime series among U.S. streaming audiences.
“When this music is performed live, the story takes on an entirely new dimension that audiences will feel in a much deeper way,” says Floris Douwes, Producer and Managing Director at GEA Live. “Hayashi’s compositions don’t just accompany the action. They drive the emotion and intensify every moment throughout the performance. We’re excited to bring this experience to the passionate fans across the United States for the first time.”
Marking 10 years since the anime’s April 2016 debut, the franchise enters a milestone year in 2026 with a commemorative anniversary logo, a special teaser visual, the announcement of a brand-new extra episode, and the launch of this worldwide concert tour. “My Hero Academia” is set in a world where most people possess superpowered abilities known as “Quirks.” The story follows Izuku Midoriya, a boy born without powers who dreams of becoming a hero like his idol, All Might. His life changes when he inherits All Might’s Quirk and enrolls at U.A. High School, a leading academy for aspiring heroes, where he trains alongside Class 1-A while learning the responsibility that comes with protecting others in a society shaped by both heroes and villains.
This is not just a concert, it’s a heroic adventure, a musical tribute, and an emotional journey rolled into one unforgettable musical experience. Whether you’ve been following Deku and Class 1-A since the beginning or are discovering the series for the first time, My Hero Academia In Concert promises an unforgettable evening that honors the legacy of the world’s favorite heroes.
