List of Rock Festivals in Kyushu [2025–2026]

We’d like to introduce music festivals held in Kyushu.

This time, we’ll focus specifically on rock festivals.

Perhaps thanks to the recent success of rock bands from Kyushu, there are many events being held that are highly recommended for fans of Japanese rock.

The stage will be energized mainly by artists from Kurume. Since it’s being held in their hometown, every artist will be giving passionate performances you won’t want to miss. There will also be food and drink stalls from popular Kurume eateries, so you can enjoy meals and alcohol. It’s a great event even for those attending an outdoor festival for the first time!

TRINGLE, held within Fukuoka’s Seaside Momochi Beach Park. It’s incredibly appealing that so many popular bands from the loud and melodic hardcore scenes are gathering, and a two-day pass is available at this price. It’s a highly recommended festival for live music kids around Kyushu! A rock fest on the beach at summer’s end—the sunset scenery will surely strike a chord in your heart, don’t you think?
