Hello! Project 2020 ~The Ballad~ Special Number was Hello! Project's one-day 2020 concert. It took place on December 2, 2020 at Nippon Budokan.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, members performed mid-tempos and ballads from the Hello! Project catalog, for which they were split into 2-3 smaller sections and combined into six "half-and-half" units, with 4-5 members each. In compliance with government policy to prevent the spread of the virus, cheering, crowding, and closeness in the venue were prohibited, the venues were filled to 50% capacity, and wearing masks were required to enter.

The show was broadcasted live through Hikari TV and dTV Channel, and was also available for live viewing in 31 different cinemas across Japan, and in Taiwan through Vieshow Cinemas Taipei Hsin Yi; standard COVID-19 prevention measures applied for all cinemas.

A footage of the concert will be released in DVD and Blu-ray on May 26, 2021.
