MINDGAMES PRESENTS: THE LABYRINTHOct 11 (Sat) – 13 (Mon), Gunma Prefecture
The outdoor festival Japan proudly presents to the world, THE LABYRINTH. It’s an event where sharp-minded artists active in the electronic music scene—techno, electro, and beyond—from both Japan and abroad gather in Naeba, Niigata. Fans flock from all over Japan—and indeed, from around the world—and dance from morning till night over several days. When night falls, psychedelic lighting gently illuminates Naeba’s forests, offering a feast not just for the ears but for the eyes as well. Beyond the stellar lineup, the festival’s excellent food—an essential part of any fest—is likely one reason tickets sell out instantly.
