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.

As spring approaches, do you ever feel the urge to soak up live music outdoors? Surrendering yourself to your favorite tunes in an open-air setting under warm sunshine is one of the true joys of spring festivals.

This year, unique spring music festivals are being held all over Japan, each with its own genre and atmosphere.

In this article, we’ll introduce a wide range of music festivals taking place in spring so you can compare and check out the ones that catch your eye.

Kawasaki, the City of Music: Asian Exchange Music FestivalSat 4/18–Sun 4/19, Kanagawa Prefecture

This music festival began in 2005 as part of the Japan-Korea Friendship Year commemorative projects and has since been held every spring around Kawasaki Station. Making the most of Kawasaki’s unique character as a place where cultures from across Asia coexist, it features two days of folk music and dance, as well as live concerts by musicians based in Kawasaki. Visitors can get up close to music and instruments they rarely encounter, and the Asian Festa—where foods from various countries can be enjoyed—is held at the same time. The 2026 edition will take place in April.
