November Music Festivals [2026]: A roundup of music events, including autumn festivals and outdoor rock festivals

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 happening nationwide in November all at once.

You might not associate November with music festivals, but since many days are comfortably mild during the daytime, it’s actually a surprisingly good time to go!

Events of all sizes are held across the country, so please take a look through this article and consider joining any that catch your eye.

In particular, among the local events held in regional areas, there are many unique festivals where you can even enjoy hot springs and saunas—so be sure to check them out.
