Musashino Music FestivalSaturday, May 16, Tokyo Metropolis
Rennon Sound Carnival is a circuit-style event held throughout Kichijoji. Over 30 artists will perform live across six venues set up in Kichijoji. Since it’s a circuit event, attendees move between venues to catch their favorite acts, but one of the charms of this format is stumbling into a venue on a whim and unexpectedly falling in love with a new, unknown artist’s live performance.

This event, named after that term, is held under the concept of “protecting our vanishing beaches.” Through music and art, it aims to share surf and marine culture and express a desire to protect the beach. It also sounds great to relax and enjoy music at a seaside venue.
