Miyagi Music Festivals [2025]: Outdoor Festivals and Events Summary

Mori-Nami is a festival held at the “Mori Stage” in Miyagi Prefecture. The venue itself is said to be worth seeing, but the powerful performances are a must-see as well. Precisely because it’s a small-scale festival, it’s full of thoughtful touches and careful curation—you’re sure to have a great time.

It’s a live circuit event hosted by radio station FM Sendai, organized in collaboration with the city of Sendai and local live music venues.

A wide variety of artists will perform live at nearly 40 venues set up throughout downtown Sendai. Just like choosing your favorite dishes in a bustling cafeteria where people gather, the event is held with the hope that you’ll discover and savor your very own music from the wealth of sounds from around the world spilling across the city. That’s the true charm of a jazz street.
