Oto-yo(i) WalkSat, Apr 11 – Fukushima Prefecture
This event was launched to reinvigorate Fukushima after the Great East Japan Earthquake and the nuclear accident led to a sharp decline due to harmful rumors. Held in a hot spring resort town, it’s an event you can fully enjoy—not only music, but also hot springs, food, and sightseeing. And since it takes place in a hot spring area, accommodation plans are available as well, so why not enjoy all that Iizaka Onsen has to offer?

THE BONDS GIGANTIC TOWN MEETINGSun, 4/12, Osaka Prefecture
Jaiga is a popular summer festival held in Osaka every year. This time, it’s being held as the second installment of a spin-off event. Unlike the first installment, THE BONDS -AMAZING OSAKA-, this one takes a circuit-style format across several live houses. While preserving the signature Jaiga vibe that brings together bands from a wide range of genres like rock and pop, the spin-off’s appeal lies in offering a more intense, up-close experience of the artists’ performances.
| Schedule | Sunday, April 12, 2026 |
