GAGAFESTSat 10/4 – Sun 10/5, Kyoto Prefecture

This event combines an outdoor rock festival with fireworks under the concept of “bringing a live house outdoors.” On the live stage, there are plans that allow filming of certain artists’ performances, which is a treat for fans. The event is imbued with the hope that it will become a new hangout born from musical connections, and a little joy in people’s daily lives. Remarkably, the organizers are a volunteer community, not an event-planning company or a group of band members. Founded by members outside the industry, GAGAFEST has expanded in scale and will energize the venue with an outdoor rock festival and full-scale fireworks. Bring your family and friends and join in!

Ibaraki Bakuon FestSat 10/4 – Sun 10/5, Osaka Prefecture

Ibaraki Bakuon Fest is pronounced “Ibaraki Bakuon Fest,” with “bakuon” written as “the sound of barley.” It’s a festival of beer and music. Also, “Fest” is the German way of saying “festival,” reflecting respect for and dedication to Germany, the home of beer. You can see that spirit in the featured food and the lineup of artists as well.
