Kanto Cultural Festival Calendar: University and Junior College Campus Festival Schedule Summary [2026]

Editor-in-Chief, RAG MUSICHane Keisuke
Editor-in-chief of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. After working in a music studio and handling wedding sound, joined the RAG MUSIC editorial team in 2016. Experienced with a variety of instruments: marching band in elementary school, clarinet in junior high school wind ensemble, and drums in a band from high school onward. Drawing on my own musical activities and the experience gained through my work, I produce daily articles, including various song introductions, features on music festivals around the country, and live reports. In music, I enjoy not only rock from Japan and abroad but, lately, a wide range of J-pop as well.

There are many universities in the Kanto area, and during the campus festival seasons in spring and autumn, festivals are held every year with a wide variety of themes and concepts.

These events are packed with highlights, including programs featuring famous artists and comedians, as well as exhibitions and hands-on activities that showcase students’ unique ideas.

In this article, we will introduce the schedules of campus festivals held at universities across the Kanto region.

Check out the festivals that catch your eye, and if something interests you, be sure to visit in person and experience the appeal for yourself.

Meikai Festival | Meikai University (Urayasu Campus)Nov 2 (Sun) – 3 (Mon), Chiba Prefecture

We uphold three guiding principles: “bringing smiles to the local community who visit,” “helping students create their best memory of college life,” and “energizing the university through the campus festival.” We hope the festival will be the bridge that connects these goals. By linking the local community, students, and the university through the festival and creating shared moments, the Campus Festival Executive Committee will take on challenges from multiple angles and create a festival filled with a melody of smiles.
