Hayashi’s’ journey in the live music business in Japan started with her working as an assistant tour manager to Mariah Carey on a stadium tour of the market.

Now, as CEO of Japan-headquartered Hayashi International Promotions (HIP), the Los Angeles-based exec lists some of her career highlights as promoting major shows in Japan by superstars like Bruno Mars, Maroon 5, U2, Taylor Swift, and The Weeknd among many others.

“Bruno Mars’ Japan tour needs special mention as I closed the deal and made an announcement at the end of September 2022 for five Dome shows in October,” says Hayashi.

“Normally, tickets go on sale six months prior to show date but here we only had four weeks to sell them and he became the fastest-selling stadium artist in Japan.

“Everybody thought I was mad, including my own staff (so they say afterwards), but we managed to sell out in two days.”

HIP ended up selling out five shows at the Tokyo Dome for Bruno Mars in Q4 2022 totalling over 200,000 tickets. The company also sold out three shows at the Dome for Maroon 5 in Q4.

 

After selling out five shows at Tokyo Dome, he also added another two shows, so now he has 7 sold out shows.
