Editor-in-chief of RAG MUSIC and in charge of music festivals. When I attended my first music festival as a freshman in college, I was captivated by its charm—“I can’t believe there’s a place this free and this fun.” I share information about wonderful music festivals every day to help grow the community of festival fans.

The season for outdoor music festivals that color the Kansai summer is finally in full swing.

Powerful live performances that amplify the carefree summer mood, a sense of unity between artists and fans, and unforgettable musical experiences are waiting for you.

From world-renowned artists to rising talents, musicians from a wide range of genres are gathering across the Kansai region.

Why not create irreplaceable memories through electrifying performances that will make this summer unforgettable?
