Domestic circuit events [2026] City festival list

This event takes place across multiple venues, such as live houses in Shimokitazawa. Its concept is a “party”—more specifically, it’s organized with the idea of “not a scaled-down version of a festival that draws tens of thousands, but an interesting party × number of venues.” There’s no way an event with such a fresh concept wouldn’t be a blast.

Yatsui Ichirō of the comedy duo Eleki Comic is also known for his work as a rock DJ, actively engaging in the music industry by releasing compilation albums and more. This is an event he hosts. Rather than being a club music event, it’s a crossover-style event that incorporates a wide range of music.

The Downtown Music Festival held in Inzai City, Chiba Prefecture, is a community-participation music event. On numerous stages set up around town, amateur musicians from inside and outside the city perform in a variety of genres, including rock, pop, Japanese taiko, gospel, and children’s piano recitals. There are also workshops and a stamp rally, so you can enjoy exploring the city as you go. There’s even a corner where you can jump in and participate while watching, so this event might inspire some attendees to take the stage and perform next time.
