We are excited to announce our latest edition of Rising JRock hosted this summer on Sunday July 19th of 2026 at the Piston!Rising JRock is a brand new Japanese Rock themed event in Toronto. Organized by Japanese Prog-Rock band Rising Ronin, this event features Japanese music from anime music to original Japanese music from Japanese artists in Toronto. With the increasing popularity of anime in the West, Rising Ronin started this event to bring more visibility to Japanese music and Japanese artists in Toronto. You can expect popular Japanese anime tunes, rock and metal originals, as well as other classic JRock music that may not have big name anime tied to it! Come join us for an unforgettable night of Japanese music!Our summer edition will be highlighting a lot of your favourite anime songs, so we are encouraging you to dress up in your favourite cosplay. Please be considerate of the other guests regarding size and space restrictions. We reserve the right to refuse entry if your cosplay is too large for the comfort of the venue or the other guests.We are looking forward to seeing everyone again at a larger venue and with an all new lineup!We have a new band, CamoKimono, opening for us this summer. Tokuiten will also be returning to play with use for the summer too!www.instagram.com/camokimono/www.instagram.com/tokuiten_band/www.instagram.com/risingroninband/*We are reminding you to bring earplugs for your own ear protection. Live music can be quite loud and long term hearing loss can be prevented with hearing protection*
