List of Rock Festivals Nationwide [2026]

This event has been held since 2013, launched by the Osaka Sakai-based bands GOOD 4 NOTHING and THE CHINA WIFE MOTORS out of a desire to give back to their hometown. The venue has been in Sakai City since the beginning, and the event is deeply rooted in Sakai, with booths introducing local food, clothing, housing, and various cultures. This year, the venue has been moved to Sakai City’s Umi to no Fureai Hiroba, featuring an outdoor stage. With the event taking place at the end of May, the weather should be just right for a comfortable and enjoyable time.

Jaiga is a popular summer festival held in Osaka every year. This time, it’s being held as the second installment of a spin-off event. Unlike the first installment, THE BONDS -AMAZING OSAKA-, this one takes a circuit-style format across several live houses. While preserving the signature Jaiga vibe that brings together bands from a wide range of genres like rock and pop, the spin-off’s appeal lies in offering a more intense, up-close experience of the artists’ performances.
