Family Festivals Nationwide List [2025–2026]

Do you know Sorachi, a region in Hokkaido? A new festival is launching at a nature-rich venue located between Sapporo and Asahikawa. After the spread of COVID-19, keeping our distance became part of everyday life. Even so, the concept of the festival is that we are connected like the sky above us—that even when we’re apart, music can unite us. To make it enjoyable for all ages, there will also be delicious food and a market featuring Hokkaido-focused offerings. As a unique pleasure of an outdoor festival, be sure to savor soothing music and great gourmet treats under the pleasant open sky.

It started as an early-summer music event born from OTO TO TABI, which has been held in Hokkaido during the winter. The venue, surrounded by Hokkaido’s nature, offers a pleasant space where time seems to flow slowly, letting you experience a break from the everyday. With an outdoor stage and lawn areas, it’s easy to enjoy freely and comfortably even with small children—another big plus. With music, forest bathing, food, and shopping in an appealing setting, it’s well worth going a little out of your way to check it out!
