MOVE FESSat, 6/20, Tokyo Metropolis
This is a music festival held since 2016 to raise awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Performances by participating artists can be enjoyed online as well, so people can take part regardless of their circumstances. Don’t miss the stage that blends cutting-edge technologies such as eye-controlled DJ sets, light-based performances that let you experience music visually, and VR. We hope the event will give more people the chance to learn about ALS and help spread support around the world.
