List of Rock Festivals in the Kanto Region [2026]

This rock festival started in the spring of 2023 to energize the North Kanto area. It brings together must-see and supportive artists who fire up the crowd with their performances—an essential part of any music festival. It’s a new-style event that rotates its venue each year among Ibaraki, Tochigi, and Gunma prefectures, and we’re also focusing on the market aspect so it can become an event cherished by the local community. As with any great fest, you can indulge in popular local foods and take part in workshops—unique experiences you can only enjoy here.

As a new festival organized by Ibaraki Broadcasting, the LuckyFM Green Festival has been held since 2022. Following the relocation of the ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL, the event has adopted the motto “Don’t let the flame of Ibaraki’s festival culture go out,” and has been reimagined with a new concept as a celebration of music, food, and art at its venue, Hitachi Seaside Park. Featuring local ingredients and a wide range of art and music genres, it’s also recommended as a family-friendly event. It’s sure to become one of your favorite summer memories!

A rock festival hosted by FM Berry, a radio station in Tochigi. Ten stellar artists will perform at Inokashira Park.

The 1000-Person ROCK FES held in Gunma Prefecture is a participatory rock festival! It’s an event where they recruit people to perform together on the day and have a session with 1,000 participants. The sense of freedom of playing outdoors with such a large group must be truly special. It’s the kind of fun event that seems obvious but is surprisingly rare! Each year, set pieces are announced, and anyone who applies can join the performance, so if you’ve ever wanted to play music with a big crowd, be sure to sign up!
