Umamusume LA Concerts Canceled Due to Visa Delays

Cygames has canceled the Los Angeles performances of Umamusume: Pretty Derby 7th Event: The Stage, scheduled for October 22-23, 2026, at the LA Peacock Theater. The decision stems from the U.S. government's failure to approve visas for the cast's voice actresses, who also perform as the show's singers. Applications were submitted over six months ago but remain unapproved.
Because the specific performers are essential to the production, no replacements could be arranged. Cygames will issue refunds for both physical and streaming tickets. While the Los Angeles shows are off, three other international stops in London, Seoul, and Yokohama remain planned, though dates have not yet been announced.
Siliconera reported on October 19 that Umamusume LA concerts faced cancellation as visas remained unapproved. AniTrendz also reported on October 20 that the Los Angeles concert was canceled due to visa issues. Siliconera noted on October 19 that the LA concert was uncertain as visas remained unapproved. Anime News Network reported on October 19 that Uma Musume U.S. concerts faced cancellation due to visa delays.
