Slow LIVE in KanazawaSat 9/27 Ishikawa Prefecture

Slow LIVE, a self-styled “mini festival for grown-ups” held annually in Tokyo, is coming to Kanazawa. With reserved seating that lets you enjoy the artists at a relaxed pace, it’s the perfect break for those who are usually busy with work. Spend a long autumn evening in Kanazawa this year. From Kansai, take the Thunderbird; from the Kanto region, the Hokuriku Shinkansen—both will get you to Kanazawa in no time.
