To celebrate the 15th anniversary of A Bathing Ape, Nigo has decided to host the “World Wide Bape Heads Show” in Hong Kong. You know you’re going to have a killer show when you have musicians including Kanye West, Pharrell’s N.E.R.D, and Nigo’s Teriyaki Boyz all performing on one stage. Responsible for the setup of this event are the folks at Silly Thing. The show will take place on April 10th while the tickets will be on sale starting March 17th. Definitely not a event to miss out on.
