Music Festival Master / Editor-in-ChiefHane Keisuke
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.

A massive gathering of free-admission festivals from all over Japan is here!

Because they’re free, you can drop by on a whim and discover artists you’ve never known before.

You might even discover a whole new world you hadn’t experienced!

Free-admission festivals you won’t want to miss.
