Shiga Music Festivals [2026] Outdoor Festivals and Events Guide

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.

We’ve put together a roundup of music festivals in Shiga Prefecture, including summer festivals, rock festivals, and outdoor festivals.

Events like the Mother Lake Jazz Festival, EAT THE ROCK, Inazuma Rock Fes, and Otsu Jazz Festival will be back this year—we look forward to seeing you at these exciting happenings!
