Here are some different terms used for the most common events held for Japanese music artists.
Live (ライブ, raibu): One of the most common terms for a stage performance.
Stage (ステージ, suteh-ji): Another common term for a stage performance.
Riri-ibe (リリイベ): Short for “release event.” These are held at shopping centers or music stores, and consist of a short “live“ and a handshake or two-shot meeting after for those who purchased the CD or DVD. Depending on where it takes place, it may be free to watch the live event.
