ArcAdiA (アルカディア) forms in Sapporo (札幌)札幌.
V. ayumi / G. kazu / G. NAO / B. Seiji (静時) / D. Yuu
First(?) live is held. The band's first demo CD-R is likely distributed at this live (a flyer included with the CD-R mentions this live and two in December).
Although the band apparently officially joined Matina STORM, likely at the Matina sponsored event on December 26th, their flyer advertising a November live also mentioned Matina STORM in the contact information.
The band joins Matina sublabel Matina STORM. (Their office remains office L.S.D, which was founded by guitarist kazu.)
Twoman vs cadenza is held. A coupling CD-R is meant to be freely distributed to attendees, but is delayed due to production issues. It is ultimately mailed to attendees about 5 months later.
Guitarist NAO and drummer Yuu secede.
Sponsored event, Risoukyou 4th STAGE (理想郷 4th STAGE), is held. An omnibus is freely distributed to attendees. (It's unclear whether or not a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd STAGE took place.)
At this time the band refers to themselves as “new form ArcAdiA” which typically implies a more significant change than just a member change. It's possible that they changed their theme or musical style around this time.
Sometime by March, guitarist YUTO (ユト) and drummer Mitsuru (みつる) join.
Oneman is held.
A mini-album is announced to be released in November, but is apparently cancelled, probably due to the secession.
Oneman is held at an unknown livehouse.
Drummer Mitsuru (みつる) secedes.
ArcAdiA indefinitely pauses activities
Sometime between October 2003 and January 2004, guitarist kazu secedes.
V. ayumi / G. YUTO (ユト) / B. Seiji (静時)
The band's live planned for this day is cancelled due to their activity pause.
The band announces via their OHP that they will not return and have officially disbanded.
