Domestic circuit events [2026] City festival list

When it comes to circuit events, they’re not just about music—they can also center on food and visuals, and they often become citywide festivals that make use of the whole town: not only music venues like halls and live houses, but also restaurants, temples and shrines, warehouses, and even streets.

Their appeal lies in the way you can take in the area’s history and culture all at once.

This year as well, circuit events and city festivals are being held all over the country, and they’ve taken root as a solid music culture that goes beyond short-lived trends like the outdoor and DIY booms.

Here’s a roundup of domestic circuit events and music festivals held around town.
