Editor-in-chief of RAG MUSIC and in charge of music festivals. When I attended my first music festival as a freshman in college, I was captivated by its charm—“I can’t believe there’s a place this free and this fun.” I share information about wonderful music festivals every day to help grow the community of festival fans.

Nokonoshima, a small island floating in Hakata Bay. Just 10 minutes from Meinohama in Fukuoka City, it’s a relaxing getaway and the setting for an island salsa festival.

An otherworldly space surrounded by palm trees and beaches. Nokonoshima, the event venue, transforms into a “Salsa Island” so full of smiles that you’d never believe it’s in Japan. With cheerful Latin rhythms coming from the stage, the whole venue becomes one, and both Japanese and international visitors break into dance with big smiles—this is that kind of festival!
