Acchan's Graduation Concert Streaming Live and Goodbye Parade in Akihabara

On the 27th August, Maeda Atsuko will be performing for the last time in the AKB48 Theater and the number of applications for the tickets was totally overwhelming.

On 8th of December 2005 only 7 audience showed up for the first concert - which was also Acchan's first theater performance - when the theater can actually hold 250 people. Over time as AKB48's popularity grew with Acchan as the 'face of AKB48', demand of tickets for each concert grew till a state where applications have to go through lottery to see which lucky 250 applicants get to watch the concert in the theater.

The concert on 27th of August 6pm, which will be Acchan's graduation concert, received a whooping number of 229,096 applications - more than 30,000 times of Acchan's first performance in 2005. Acchan wanted to at least greet those fans who failed to be selected in the lottery and thus plans of her parade were made, to say goodbye to her fans. She will parade around the AKB48 stage in Akihabara around 3:30 PM on the 27th of August and the route will be from Tashiro Doori right outside the AKB48 theater to the overpass above Akihabara Station on the JR Yamonote line.
(Due to security concerns, the parade is cancelled.)

And also due to the high demand for the tickets to watch the theater performance on that day, it was decided that the concert will be streamed live via the group’s Google+, YouTube and Fuji TV’s ‘Hey! Hey! Hey!‘, starting at 6pm JST.

Additionally from today, fans are able to use their Google+ accounts to send a personal messages to Maeda by submitting a message via your Google+ account (registration required) with the hashtag '#maeda0827'. A flower petal-shaped confetti printed with the message and Google+ profile name will fall onto the stage during the show.
