Fukui Music Festivals [2026] Outdoor Festivals and Events Summary

GREEN FLASH Fes is held at a resort facility in Fukui Prefecture, set against the backdrop of the sea. A “green flash” is the moment when a green light appears as the sun sinks into the ocean, and legend has it that seeing it brings good luck. With your favorite music as the soundtrack, it’s an event where participants can spend their time freely—lying on the grass while gazing at the vast sky and ocean, or enjoying delicious food. There’s also a fully equipped campground nearby, so how about adding it to your travel plans?

This festival takes place right in the city, just a 5-minute walk from Fukui Station. Organized by two founders and volunteers, all of whom are active musicians in Fukui, it will be held with confidence as a music festival deeply rooted in the local music scene, showcasing artists who are active in Fukui.

It’s a music festival organized by FM Fukui that has been running since 2006. Numerous artists who are gaining nationwide attention perform there. For many of them, this event often marks their first live show in Fukui.

It’s a community-based festival where you can feel the love for eyeglasses even from last year’s report photos. Musicians and artists wearing glasses take part, showcasing Sabae’s traditional craftsmanship. Though traditional, the glasses are anything but old-fashioned—stylish frames featuring modern designs.
