List of Jazz Festivals and Jazz Streets Nationwide [2025–2026]

Jazz in Fuchu takes place at more than 20 venues around Keio Line Fuchu Station. The event’s tagline is “A green city, connecting smiles through music!” With the whole town serving as a stage, people naturally gather—hopefully spreading more and more smiles.

Asagaya Jazz Street began in 1995 with the motto, “Brightening and enlivening Asagaya with jazz.” This event, where the town overflows with jazz, is run by local volunteers, and its handmade, community-driven nature is one of its key attractions.

A jazz event originating from the Seto Inland Sea—rich in history and culture—will be held in Tokyo as a sister event. The highlight is performances by artists who carry on the spirit of Django Reinhardt, rooted in the genre that blends the unique scales of Gypsy jazz with swing jazz. Precisely because this style is relatively niche within the jazz world, the event offers a chance to experience a new cultural scene and foster regional exchange through music. Why not enjoy it as if you were traveling while listening to the music?

The Tokushima Jazz Street is a jazz festival with a very long history. Multiple live performances take place simultaneously at various venues throughout the city. This year, numerous artists will perform live across 11 venues. These circuit-style events are wonderful, offering an extraordinary feeling as a familiar city overflows with music.
