Despite the consumption tax increase implemented by the Japanese government in 2014, which generally depressed spending across the board, spending on concerts “received no negative impact.”

The Expo also features seminars hosted by top opinion leaders in Japan. Exhibitors and visitors can check http://www.live-event.jp/en/.
