Holofes 5 - Capture the Moment

[nooternun]

Thanks @TinyKusa for the overall info, I have edited it. This thread is to inform and live post about the concert. The Official website goes over much of what I will post here.

What is it?
Hololive SUPER EXPO is a yearly Hololive convention held in Japan, while Hololive 5th Fes. Capture the Moment is a two-part concert taking place on both days of the event. There is also an extra concert this year, hololive x honeyworks, featuring songs by honeyworks and performed by Hololive members.

When is it?
The 2024 expo, 5th Fes, and honeyworks all take place on March 16th and 17th 2024. The expo has different special events for both days, the 5th Fes concert takes place on both days with different Hololive members appearing on stage both days.

This year's expo will be the first ever "Themed" event, Hololive Island! A faraway, mysterious island consisting of
five special areas, stages, exhibits, and other entertainments to offer to tourists of the island for two days:

Spoiler: Sponsors

This part of the Event is sponsored by Bandai, a new sponsor. The sponsor of the previous years, Bushiroad, is still on board but only sponsoring the 5th Fes, aka the concert itself.
Sponsors

To compare, those were last year's sponsors:

They changed the sponsership levels. Bandi moved way up and Good Smile moved up as well. Xing is back as well as Ueni Trading. Overall, without knowing how much money everyone is spending it feel like there is more support this year.

This year's Fes, Capture the Moment, will have a total of four (!) concerts! One of them being a special stage for Honeyworks songs; similar to what 4th Fes already offered with a special Deco*27 stage:

Veune: Makuhari Messe (same as previous years)
Even though HoloFes and HoloExpo are again at the same venue, 2024 DOUBLES the size of their Event compared to last year
To realise how much bigger, I recommend looking at this handy map:

This time, Hololive is booking the entirety of the main Building of Makuhari messe, This HoloFes is the biggest yet!
By relocating the Concert from the Event Hall (capacity 9K people) into the regular event halls, they gain massive amounts of space.
According to the site, the event hall last year was 3000 square meters, the new halls 1-3 should be about 20.000 square meters. Ive seen differing speculations in what kind of capacity that could result, but it seems to be anywhere between 16k and 22k. That would basically triple the size of the concert.

In an attempt to give everyone good views, the concerts will be shown on 3 different stages simultaneously.

Spoiler

This is just to give an idea what one of these Halls looks like, and they are going to use 3 of them.

It's already possible to buy tickets for streaming:
https://spwn.jp/events/24031602-enghololive5thfes
Once again, there is also the possibility to buy streaming tickets via Stream+, but I don't know why anyone would do that, because Stream+ is region locked and also costs more than SPWN.
Make a SPWN account, it is easy, and buy them BEFORE the concert. There have been issues with payment processing day of so don't get caught out.

One Concert: 6500¥ or $44
Two Days (all concerts): 25000¥ or $170

Yes, its gotten more expensive, but only of you want to buy the Two-Day ticket. The price for 1 singular concert hasn't increased.
This is what last years Two-day ticket was:

I suppose because of new members and a constantly growing line-up, they added a 4th Concert which, ofc, makes things more expensive. I still think that just buying 1 Concert is very much worth it, each concert has likely a runtime of 3 hours and considering that runtime, its still good bang for your buck.

This is just speculation, but assuming each concert runs for about 3 hours, if you pay for the full ticket you get about 12 hours of concert for $170, which, while expensive, still seems fair.

For all of you planning in-person attendance, it looks like there's some hope, and it looks like Cover listened to the fan feedback. They now have a page for venue tickets and there's both a domestic and foreign lottery. They also only share one set of dates, so it might be entries pulling from the same pool this time.

Some sidenotes:
Haachama doesn't seem to be participating, probably on Doctor's orders. (Chaama came back too late, Mel will also not be there)

There will be watch-alongs for the concerts so I'll link them later. I can assume Advent, Regloss and some of the boys will watch.​

The Fan Booth - Cover asked for fan submissions for a booth theme

Full menu

Spoiler: Details

Same desu~ took a perverts camera?

Drinks are $6.65
Meals are $9.97
Feels cheap considering most event centers really hike up prices AND everything sold out so quickly last year. PLUS everything comes with a trinket that you get to keep.

The boys meal looks the best imo. Also, Gamma is clearly wearing a "Hololive" shirt and normally Stars will wear "Holostars" merch. Curious

So many activies!

This year there is an Island theme
Merch sales can be done thru Holocart a mobile ordering service

Get Hyped! IKZ!

Don't mind Mel, you might see some songs/segments awkward just like Rushia ​

 

[Nigel Nigerman]

Broke gang!!!

 

[agility_]

Is the gura AI singing on the first or the second day? They should advertise this technological feat more.

 

[Slutpuppies]

I'm not a Hololive diehard, but I really enjoy all the performances and the fans during Holofes, it's a good time.

 

[Seth]

Hell yeah!! I love Canada !!!! Just paid 233$

Eh still extra cheap for the quality of a holofes.

 

[The Rratarded Alt]

They need to stop adding stages every year

 

[Nenélove]

They need to stop adding stages every year

 

[The Rratarded Alt]

Next year will have at least 10 more girls, so it might even happen

Shame there's no Advent and Regloss. Would be fun

I'm looking forward to Kaela, Watame, Aki, Lui, Suisei, Risu, and Korone.

I'm looking forward to Kaela, Watame, Aki, Lui, Suisei, Risu, and Korone.

Im glad they're not in it actually, they would have debuted and been already rushed in 3D + months of preps ? They wouldnt have any time to stream and to cultivate their audience. It would have litterally killed the hype about them.

I always forget how much time is wasted on talents for idol stuff. I hope Kaela can maintain her hours. Watame is somehow able to stream over a thousand hours a year despite being heavy into idol stuff.

 

[nooternun]

I'll be updating the main post with Upcoming, Current, and Past events but I'll post from time to time the Current events to get more attention

Win a ticket - deadline 3/3/24
Hololive is taking submissions for batsu game voice lines

 

[Poyoyo & Jill]

COVER YOU BASTARDS DONT LET OJOU SHARE A DUET WITH A TERMINATED TALENT AGAIN​

That would be like the second time that it happens

 

[Negzana]

COVER YOU BASTARDS DONT LET OJOU SHARE A DUET WITH A TERMINATED TALENT AGAIN​

She's gonna do one with Shion 2025 and Choco 2026

 

[El Rrata]

She's gonna do one with Shion 2025 and Choco 2026

I think it is funny how gen 2 has so many members that people constantly rrated about graduating, yet they are the only pre-6, numbered gen with their full lineup still intact.

 

[Jolted Cookies]

COVER YOU BASTARDS DONT LET OJOU SHARE A DUET WITH A TERMINATED TALENT AGAIN​

That would be like the second time that it happens

Hopefully not, they've had 2 months to rearrange songs and appearances. It was less then a month last time

Got my tickets for the whole lot; need to catch up on a ton of Holo songs.

 

[La+ de Central Norte]

I hope Lap gets to do a cool dance

But we already are starting hard
How do you dance like a cool person while singing Kawaikute gomen ?

 

[Shuba]

Me complaining about the extra concert and increased price but buying the complete package anyways.

It'll be tough to surpass the pure kino that is Bright Parade but I'm excited.

 

[Negzana]

Kinda hope A-Chan is a surprise singer for Holofes. Sad Advent and Regloss can't join in and her coming on would make up for it.
