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.

While calls for regional revitalization are echoing across the country, this time we’ve compiled information on locally rooted festivals.

Many of these events let you enjoy specialty products and local foods from each area, so they’re great not only for residents but also for those coming from afar—perfect to drop by while sightseeing.

Kuroiso Jazz FestivalSun, Oct 19 – Tochigi Prefecture

The Kuroiso Jazz Festival began in 2004 as an open-air live event called the “Kuroiso Jazz Festival,” organized by jazz enthusiasts in Kuroiso (now Nasushiobara City). It brought together professional and amateur musicians active mainly in northern Tochigi Prefecture and was first held at the Nakagawa Riverside Park. A wide range of artists participate regardless of whether they are professionals, amateurs, or their age. The genres are not limited to jazz; it has become a live concert rich in variety, including rock and pop, among others.
