An initial "V-Jump Festival '91" (sometimes adapted as "Victory Festival" as ビクトリーフェスティバル or shortened to "V-Fes" as ブイフェス similar to later incarnations) was held by Shueisha — in conjunction with their new V-Jump magazine and overall "Jump" brand of publications — 08 August 1991 in Osaka and 10 August 1991 in Tokyo.[1][2] While no major new animation products were produced for this event, it was the first major V-Jump-branded event in Japan, coinciding with the original trial launch of the magazine, which spanned three issues across 1990 to 1991.

Following the magazine's full monthly reboot publication in 1993, a revised event called V-Jump Festival ran from 1994 to 1999. During those years, the event was held first in Tokyo, and then again soon after in Osaka; for 1994 in particular, these respective event dates were 28 July 1994 and 06 August 1994.[3]

The event's title was often simplified in Japanese as Vフェス, which can be reasonably adapted with either "Fes" or "Fest" as an English translation. This is in contrast to an event such as Jump Festa which uses フェスタ (fesuta) or the full English word "festival" as フェスティバル (fesutibaru); that said, English text on collateral has spelled out the event's name at times as "V Jump Festival" as early as its 1994 debut, and lasting all the way to its final event.

V-Jump Festival ended with its 1999 event. Shueisha kicked off a larger event called Jump Festa later that year in December 1999 (dated for calendar year 2000), which continues to this day. With the launch of the magazine Saikyō Jump in 2010, V-Jump Festival as a sub-branded event was later spiritually reborn into Saikyō V-Jump Festa for 2012 and 2013, itself morphing into Jump Victory Carnival in 2014 (which, as with Jump Festa, still runs annually to this day).
