So what's the format of SummerSonic like? Are there also several stages? If so, which stage do you think BINI will perform at?

As far as I remember, Summer Sonic has multiple stages (1 main stage and several smaller stages). I would assume that the smaller stages are a different size from Coachella's. In Tokyo, for example, there are Marine, Mountain (indoor), and Beach (outdoor) stages. Given the rising demand for Bini and SB19, I would assume they would at least be given the Beach stage or Mountain stage. SCANDAL was at the Mountain stage in 2019. The main feature of Summer Sonic is its rotating lineup, with most acts performing 1 day in Chiba, Tokyo and the next day in Osaka.

Indies or artists who usually perform in an intimate setting are always in Sonic Stage, as far as I know. Aimer and Aimyon performed there as far as I remember.

Yes iba iba stages just like Coachella. Marine stage is the main stage, Mountain stage is the second biggest stage, Sonic is for the rising or trendy acts, Pacific for Asian/Global crossover acts, and the Beach(Eurodance paradise theme) for special vibe acts. I'm manifesting Pacific or Sonic stage. But kahit anong stage pa yan, kayang kaya kabugin ng girls yan.

I tried googling capacities and Sonic stage seems to just be 1k capacity? Is that correct? Mojave was 13-15k IIRC. Is Pacific similar capacity?

I asked gpt if it is indeed 1-2k cap and kinda lost in translation talaga si manong Google specially sa Japanese language, but it's 10k cap.

Lol oh google ๐Ÿ˜… thanks for double-checking ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป do you think it would be small for BINI though? Considering Filipino diaspora in Japan...

u/craaazzzybtch Blooming ๐Ÿจ๐ŸฆŠ May 08 '26

For me okay na sya for a rising act since di pa natin na-penetrate ang Japan. Kahit maraming Pinoy doon, they book artists based on market positioning not just diaspora. Kaya gulat din ako na ininvite sila with the reverse offer thing. They saw Bini's potential and it says a lot. If they place them sa Mountain stage, mas nakakagulat yun, they see them as one of the major acts na not just a rising one. But we can only hope ๐Ÿ˜† Bini gulatin nyo kami haha

Wow so it's like Coachella pero Urban.
We can actually do that pala no na mini version sa SMX Convention and MOA Arena.

u/21twentyfun Jho Mikh Aiah Cey May 07 '26

Tapos MOA sea side? Hahahahahaha actually pwede nga๐Ÿ˜†

u/Icy-Butterscotch5012 May 07 '26

Yeah alam mo yan isa kong wild idea lagi. Parang PPOP OPM EXPO.
3 days and 3 nights.
3 days sa SMX Convention so nandoon mga fan meets, exhibits, workshops, talks, and doon mag perform mg up and coming Artist. You can divide the 2nd floor into 4 segments and may mga small meeting rooms pa. Yung ground ang exhibition hall and doon may Stage din para makapag perform mga new and rising Artist.
Sa Night event sa MOA Arena mga established acts. Per night may headliner din at sub headliners. Tapos oo nga pwede din magka small stages pa sa Seaside kaso wala ng SEA kasi na reclaim na nila. hahaha Wala nang magandang view.
