Jump Festa 2026 Soon to Announce Major Shonen Jump Updates

by

The Jump Festa is an annual anime and manga convention organized by Shueisha since 1999. Each year, more than 100,000 people attend the two-day event to witness exclusive events centered around Shonen series, featuring updates on new projects, interactive displays, unique merchandise, and announcements for anime, manga, and games. The convention primarily focuses on Shueisha’s magazines like Weekly Shonen Jump, Jump Square, V Jump, Saikyo Jump, and the online platform Shonen Jump+. Held in December, it consistently delivers thrilling updates about popular series. Jump Festa 2026 is scheduled for December 20th and 21st, 2025.

Even though the event is a few months off, it’s been reported by @WSJ_manga that Issue #40 of Weekly Shonen Jump will soon disclose details about the initial stages, booth setup, and exhibition information for an upcoming event. These details are from an unofficial yet trustworthy source known for providing updates on Shonen Jump series. The year 2025 was a thrilling one for Shonen enthusiasts, brimming with unexpected announcements for new projects like Dragon Ball Super, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Jujutsu Kaisen, Undead Unluck, Dandadan, Spy x Family, Hell’s Paradise, and many others. Anticipate another burst of captivating news this year too, so remember to keep an eye out for updates on Jump Festa 2026.

What to Expect From Jump Festa 2026

Anticipating that not all events at the upcoming Festa will be clear just yet, it’s safe to predict that popular franchises such as One Piece, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Chainsaw Man could create quite a stir. In fact, One Piece has been confirmed for a stage appearance, potentially offering insights into the WIT Studio remake and the third season of its live-action adaptation. As the Egghead Incident Arc nears its conclusion in the anime, there’s a strong possibility we might learn more about what follows with the Elbaf Arc. Additionally, Jujutsu Kaisen fans have been eager for an update on Season 3 since last year’s Festa, where a stunning Yuji Itadori visual was unveiled, providing the only known material hinting at the new season.

Apart from this, it’s possible that the rising star at WSJ, Kagurabachi, could be revealing significant news as discussions about the anime adaptation have been circulating for several months. Since the manga was first published in September 2023, an announcement for an anime is not far-fetched. Moreover, we might also gain insights into upcoming anime adaptations and sequels, with some of the information certain to astound us. WSJ’s Issue #40 is slated to be published on September 1st, 2025, and ComicBook will keep you informed about all the latest developments regarding this event.
