Hiroshima Festival Calendar [2026]: Music Festivals and Outdoor Events Summary

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.

In this article, we’ll introduce music festivals held in Hiroshima Prefecture.

Hiroshima’s music festivals include plenty of events, from annual circuit-style festivals to ones where you can enjoy the townscape, scenery, and nature.

There are many events where you can discover not only great music but also the charms of Hiroshima.

Of course, performers and event content matter, but it’s also fun to look for festivals while thinking about where they’re held and what kinds of experiences you can have there.
