List of Rock Festivals in the Kanto Region [2026]

LUNATIC FEST. is a rock festival hosted by LUNA SEA, commonly known as “Luna Fes.” Launched in 2015 to mark the 25th anniversary of LUNA SEA’s formation, it’s a star-studded event that brings together titans of Japan’s rock scene alongside highly skilled bands from the younger generation. Rock fans can experience an irresistible time as the entire venue is engulfed in searing excitement.

This music festival, held in Atsugi City, Kanagawa Prefecture—also known as a city of music—is a popular event drawing attention for featuring today’s hottest artists. It also hosts a newcomer discovery audition designed to support local performers, and the stage by the Grand Prix winner is a highlight. After the event, we recommend enjoying local gourmet specialties like Atsugi’s famous “Shirokoro” horumon (grilled pork offal). Since the lineup’s genres change every year, it’s an event that will make you want to come back again next time.

A circuit-style music event held across four live venues: Shimokitazawa GARDEN, Shimokitazawa Daisy Bar, Shimokitazawa SHELTER, and Shimokitazawa CLUB Que. As it’s an event hosted by up-and-coming bands popular with young people, it may well become an event that represents the future of the rock scene.

An event hosted by Buzz Rhythm, the music program broadcast on Nippon TV, will be held at Yokohama Arena. Buzz Rhythm is a popular show featuring well-known bands and artists from the current Japanese rock scene. With a lineup full of fan favorites, this event is highly recommended for lovers of Japanese rock.
