The Zepp music halls are a group of Japanese music venues covering every area of the country. They play host to many international tours and are a popular stop among Japanese musicians. Each venue takes the Zepp name, along with the city in which it is located. The Zepp company is a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment Japan. Starting from 2017, Zepp locations also opened in other countries like Singapore (formerly), Taiwan, and Malaysia.[1] In 2022, it opened its first location in Malaysia at Bukit Bintang City Centre (BBCC), Kuala Lumpur.[1]

The Zepp venues in Japan are sponsored by the Asahi Breweries.^[citation needed]
