posted on by Andrew Osmond
A facebook page has been launched for a fan-produced Hatsune Miku music concert on Saturday March 23. The event is linked to the Sunderland convention SunnyCon, held on March 23 and 24. The concert tickets, costing £6 each, will only be available to SunnyCon ticket holders. There are more details about SunnyCon at the bottom of this story.
From the facebook page: "The concert will be held at Passion (nightclub) in Sunderland city centre. The concert time will be 7 pm -9.30pm. Tickets are limited to 400 max attendance and you will be able to purchase from the MikuUK table at SunnyCon. Tickets are on a first come first served basis and are limited to one per person. Please remember this we cannot reserve tickets or keep them aside as we want it to be fair for all."
The event, by the MikuUK Project group, is officially backed by Crypton Future Media, according to the webpage. The group is also planning an event in Scotland. MikuUK has a youtube channel including music and motion capture tests, as well as the trailer below.
Tickets for SunnyCon are on sale on the event's site. The event costs £10 for under 13s; £25 for over-13s; and VIP tickets (limited to 300) cost £30. VIP tickets allow customers into the event an hour early, as well as a free t-shirt, entry into a draw for a prize pack and half price entry into the evening event.
Guests for the 2013 event include voice actor Vic Mignogna and cosplay star Ginny McQueen. SunnyCon will also offer a £2000 prize for its cosplay competition winner.
