Legendary Band Fairground Attraction to Make Miraculous Comeback with Japan Tour After 35 Years, Sponsored by PARCO!

  • Fairground Attraction, the band behind the hit song 'Perfect', is reuniting for a Japan tour in 2024 after 35 years.
  • The band's only Japan tour took place in 1989, and their reunion was sparked by an offer to perform at the 35th anniversary of Nagoya Club Quattro's opening.
  • The tour, titled 'Beautiful Happening', will include performances in Tokyo, Aichi, and Osaka.

Fairground Attraction, along with their eternal hit song 'Perfect' that reached number one in the UK in 1988, made a meteoric debut. They disbanded suddenly in 1990, leaving behind only one original album titled 'The First of a Million Kisses'. Despite their short-lived career, they had a significant impact on the music scene and are still beloved by many musicians and music fans in Japan.

Their only Japan tour took place in 1989, with a performance in Aichi as the opening act for the newly opened Nagoya Club Quattro on the same day as Nagoya PARCO (June 29, 1989). The offer to perform at the 35th anniversary of Nagoya Club Quattro's opening on 2024 was the catalyst for this miraculous reunion and Japan tour by the original members. After 35 years, the nostalgic songs of youth will be revived.
