Stockholm festival organized by Kizune Entertainment and the Swedish-Japanese Performers Association (a member association founded in 2020 to bring Japanese popular culture to the Nordic countries), announced in May 2026 for 4 December 2026 at Slaktkyrkan as a bill of four Japanese and five Swedish bands: Bridear, Broken by the Scream, Uz:ME and Mad Jamie with Frantic Amber, Mister Misery, Liv Sin, Lysis and Goodnight Greatness. On 6 September 2026 the organizers removed every Japanese act, saying they could not secure the funding and ticket sales the format needed, refunded tickets, and kept a smaller all Swedish edition on the same date, with the Japanese collaboration named as an aim for 2027. Within this dataset it is the clearest record of the cost side of export: a Nordic promoter built a Japanese bill and could not carry it.
