The J.League is introducing a new role, J.League Special Ambassadors, from the 2026/27 season. Throughout the season, the ambassadors will help promote the J.League alongside fans and supporters through stadium appearances, media activities and digital content. Travis Japan have been appointed as the J.League 2026/27 Season Special Ambassadors.
As the J.League strives to become a league that competes on the world stage, Travis Japan have been appointed in recognition of their passion for the J.League and their own success on the global stage. The group will help showcase the excitement and appeal of the league to a wider audience.
Over the course of the season, Travis Japan will support the promotion of the J.League in a variety of ways, including the use of their music and live performances at stadiums.
Travis Japan's "On My Road" has also been selected as the official song to help promote the 2026/27 J.League season. The song will be featured in J.League television commercials, DAZN's J.League broadcasts, and football and news programmes across Japan throughout the season.
■ Future Schedule
At half-time of the 2026/27 MEIJI YASUDA J1 League Matchweek 1 fixture between Yokohama F. Marinos and Kashima Antlers at MUFG Stadium on Friday 7 August, a special live performance by Travis Japan will take place. The group are scheduled to perform "On My Road." Further activities will be announced in due course.
■『On My Road』
"On My Road," included on the standard edition of Travis Japan's second single "Kage ni mo Hinata ni mo," released on 15 April, was written with the J.League and football in mind.
A new version of the song, "On My Road -Stadium Ver.-," was released digitally on 3 August. While retaining the warmth of the original, it has been rearranged into a grand, uplifting version designed to inspire supporters to sing along together.
