Sydney, get ready to turn up the volume! The Animaga Starlight Stage is lighting up ICC Sydney next March, serving as the musical heartbeat and performance spotlight of the convention floor. Far beyond a simple platform, the stage is a dedicated showcase where sound, style, choreography, and pop-culture passion collide.

When the spotlight hits, the Starlight Stage transforms into an electrifying arena for Australia’s premier community talent. From powerful anisong vocalists and high-octane idol unit routines to dynamic dance covers and live band arrangements, every performance is driven by genuine fan connection. It offers an intimate, high-energy space where performers share what drives them and fans experience every beat up close.

We welcome aspiring acts and seasoned performers alike. Solo vocalists, idol collectives, instrumentalists, and dance troupes have the platform to command the crowd, showcase original or homage work, and even share merchandise such as physical CDs, mini photobooks, and bespoke prints directly with attendees.

For community artists, the Starlight Stage is far more than a set time—it is a launchpad to expand your reach, connect with fellow creators, and cultivate a passionate local fanbase right here in Sydney. It celebrates the dedication, rehearsals, and rhythm at the core of Japanese subculture, giving performers the stage they deserve.

Prepare for an unforgettable weekend of live entertainment at ICC Sydney next March. Whether you are performing under the lights or cheering from the barrier, the countdown to the Starlight Stage starts now!

Performer applications will open closer to the event. Stay tuned to our official website and social channels for details!
