This year, Kirby turns 30 years old, and Nintendo is celebrating with a special musical concert that’ll stream online for free.
The Kirby 30th Anniversary Music Fest is happening on Aug. 11, 2022, at the Tokyo Garden Theater in Japan. Tickets are going up soon here, though the overwhelming majority of you reading this likely only want to watch the show online. Nintendo isn’t revealing what platforms will stream Kirby’s celebratory bash yet, but that information is coming soon.
“To commemorate the 30th anniversary of Kirby, a one-time-only music festival will be held featuring a large big band-style ensemble of 35 musicians performing in a variety of genres,” a statement on the event website reads. “This event is a musical event in which you can enjoy original medleys of songs from past titles in the series while reminiscing on your memories with them.”
There’s a teaser trailer with some banger tunes as well, which you can check out below.
The timing couldn’t be better with Kirby and the Forgotten Land coming out soon. There’s a demo out for that on the eShop right now that’s worth trying. If not for yourself, do it for Kirby — it’s his birthday, after all!
