My Hero Academia Ultra Expo Sets April 17-18, 2027 Dates in Chiba, Reveals Key Visual and Voice Cast

My Hero Academia Ultra Expo 2027, the finale of the anime's 10th anniversary project, will run April 17 and 18 in Chiba. A first key visual and part of the cast lineup have been revealed.

My Hero Academia Ultra Expo 2027 will be held April 17 and 18, 2027 in Chiba, Japan, with original voice actors set to appear on stage. The two-day event is planned as the grand finale of the anime's 10th anniversary project, now that the main anime story has ended.

The first key visual shows 10 characters in special green outfits, among them Deku, Bakugo, All Might and Tomura Shigaraki. It is based on the double-page color spread from Chapter 394 of Kohei Horikoshi's manga. More character visuals are on the way, and the artwork will also be used on official merchandise.

Daiki Yamashita, who voices Deku, and Nobuhiko Okamoto, who voices Bakugo, are confirmed to appear. Yuki Kaji, Kenta Miyake and Koki Uchiyama are also on the lineup, which brings together members of the original cast for the closing event of the anniversary project.

Stage programs for both days

The organizers have split the event into two themed days. Day 1 includes a stage for the Class 1-A cast and a gathering of the League of Villains, pairing the heroes-in-training with their opponents in one program.

Day 2 centers on the voice actors for the pro heroes. It also includes a stage for U.A. students, among them Monoma, Shinso and the Big Three.

The pairing of a Class 1-A stage and a League of Villains gathering on the first day, followed by pro heroes and the wider U.A. student body on the second, covers several groups of characters across the weekend. Which of the voice actors will take part in each stage has not been fully detailed beyond the names announced so far.

Tickets

The first ticket presale runs until November 29 at 23:59, according to the event's official account. The presale opened alongside the reveal of the dates and the key visual, giving fans a window of roughly two weeks from the announcement, which was published on November 13.

The visual itself ties the event back to the manga.

Rather than a newly drawn illustration, it draws on the color spread from Chapter 394, with the characters shown in the green outfits created for the event. Further visuals have been promised, and the same artwork is set to appear on official merchandise.

With the dates, location, first cast names and ticket presale now public, additional character visuals are the next item the organizers have said will follow ahead of the April 2027 event. The presale deadline of November 29 at 23:59 is the next fixed date for ticket buyers.
