List of Rock Festivals in the Kanto Region [2025–2026]

MURO FESTIVAL is a fest hosted by Shibuya O-Crest. At a time when people say audiences are drifting away from live houses, it was launched to create opportunities for bands active in live houses to perform outdoors and give back to the live house scene. This year it will be held indoors, combining the best of Muro Fes with the appeal of live houses.

Bugsami is a summer festival organized by the visual kei rock band BugLug, bringing together visual kei artists. It began in 2018, held its first outdoor edition in 2022, and has been steadily expanding in scale. The lineup, featuring acts connected to BugLug, draws attention every year. There are also attendee-exclusive programs that make it well worth the trip for visitors. With accommodation plans available, you can enjoy the event at a relaxed pace.

A free live concert where the sea and music become one will be held on a beautiful beach in Onjuku, Chiba—perfect for that time of year when you’re reluctant to let go of summer. It’s a chance to enjoy heartwarming performances from artists while feeling the ocean breeze. From an outdoor stage just steps from the shore, music that will move you will spread across the venue. If you find a favorite artist, show your support with a tip. There will also be food trucks and stalls selling handmade goods and other items, offering opportunities for new discoveries. Come join the event with friends and family.

An indoor summer festival presented by the radio station J-WAVE. This event has been held as J-WAVE LIVE, but since 2022 it has been revamped and powered up into a large annual festival where you can enjoy music, food, and a market all at once. There are reserved seats available, so you can sit back and fully enjoy the live performances. Plus, because it’s hosted by a radio station, one of the highlights is the exciting lineup featuring a steady stream of popular, star-studded artists.
