GOLD RUSHMay 3 (Sun) – 6 (Wed), Aichi Prefecture

With the slogan “Let’s enjoy Golden Week to the fullest with music,” this is a large-scale circuit event presented by RAD Creation, a pillar of Nagoya’s music scene. Not only in Nagoya—venues in Osaka will also host events during the period. It’s a rare chance to enjoy a wide array of bands and idols who regularly light up live houses, all at once.

Takatsuki Jazz StreetMay 3 (Sun)–4 (Mon), Osaka Prefecture

As its name suggests, the Takatsuki Jazz Street is a citywide jazz festival; last year, performances took place at over 50 venues around Hankyu Takatsuki-shi Station and JR Takatsuki Station. Events like this, with stages scattered throughout the city, fill every corner with music and create a delightful sense of stepping out of the everyday. Another big draw is that admission is free, making it easy to join in.

Set in Shinjuku’s Kabukicho, idols will gather for an urban circuit-style festival.
