Sanfrecce Hiroshima is bringing back "超熱狂NIGHT FES" for four night matches during the 2026/27 season, to be held in August and September.
Since its debut in the 2024 season, "超熱狂NIGHT FES" has become a signature event for night matches at Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima, well received by many fans and supporters. The special night where light, sound, DJ Sanché & DJ Flèche, and the roaring crowd filling the stands come together as one returns in 2026, evolved even further.
This year's "超熱狂NIGHT FES 2026" adds a laser lighting production, the club's first, on top of the existing lighting, sound, and sound-synced pen light performances. The popular "超熱狂FIREWORKS" display, which drew a big response last year as well, will also be held at all four featured matches. The pitch, the stands, and the entire stadium will be wrapped in purple light, creating a space that embodies the 2026/27 season's team slogan, "ONE VIOLET."
"ONE VIOLET" carries the idea of bringing together the strength of the players, staff, fans and supporters, partner companies, and everyone connected to the city of Hiroshima as one (ONE), under the color purple (VIOLET).
"超熱狂NIGHT FES 2026" expresses that idea through the stadium production itself. From before kickoff through the moments leading up to it, light, sound, video, lasers, and pen lights sync together, transforming the whole of Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima into a special space wrapped in purple.
Rather than just watching, each visitor becomes part of that purple light, sending energy to the players on the pitch. The stands and the pitch become one, charging up the fighting spirit for the match — a night-match experience unique to Sanfrecce Hiroshima.
Families, friends, and first-time visitors to the stadium alike are invited to wear something purple and enjoy a night of "超熱狂" that can only be experienced at Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima.
Advance ticket sales begin at 12:00 PM (noon) on Tuesday, July 7. These night matches are expected to sell out, so don't miss the chance to experience it with your whole body.
