Spring Festivals in Koshinetsu & Hokuriku [2026]: Let's head to the music celebration!

This festival has a slightly unusual style: an outdoor event on a special stage beside the market near the port. It’s held with the hope of sharing the beauty of Toyama Bay, its delicious fish and food culture, and bringing music to even more people. The concept is “a festival created by everyone, overflowing with smiles.”

This is a music festival where you can enjoy various activities in the mountains at the Hakuba Iwatake Mountain Resort in Hakuba Village, Nagano Prefecture. During the event, there will be free films, jazz performances, and yoga as part of the hands-on programs. It seems there are also guided tours you can enjoy in nature with advance reservations. The main attraction, of course, is the live music. Savor exceptional performances on a special stage set at the 1,289-meter summit area with breathtaking views. There will also be a livestream on the day, giving those who can’t make it to the venue a chance to enjoy the scenery and the music.

This is a music event that began after comedian Egashira 2:50 planned and announced it on his official YouTube channel. Egashira is active in many fields, but this time he’s taking on a surprising new challenge: organizing a music festival himself and even negotiating the casting directly. No one can predict what it will be like, so it would be a shame not to take part. You also won’t want to miss the lineup announcement to see which artists will gather.

GREEN FLASH Fes is held at a resort facility in Fukui Prefecture, set against the backdrop of the sea. A “green flash” is the moment when a green light appears as the sun sinks into the ocean, and legend has it that seeing it brings good luck. With your favorite music as the soundtrack, it’s an event where participants can spend their time freely—lying on the grass while gazing at the vast sky and ocean, or enjoying delicious food. There’s also a fully equipped campground nearby, so how about adding it to your travel plans?
