Editor-in-chief of RAG MUSIC and in charge of music festivals. When I attended my first music festival as a freshman in college, I was captivated by its charm—“I can’t believe there’s a place this free and this fun.” I share information about wonderful music festivals every day to help grow the community of festival fans.

With the arrival of spring, the Tokai area is wrapped in the heat of music.

Live performances resound on outdoor stages, a diverse lineup of artists share the spotlight, and smiles spread across the venues.

Shizuoka, Aichi, Mie, and Gifu are bursting with unique music festivals.

Why not create irreplaceable memories in a special space where music carried by the fresh spring breeze blends with the lively atmosphere of the venues?

Use this article as your guide and head to Tokai’s spring festivals, where moving live performances merge with the pleasant spring weather.

This is the third Village Festival, held in the beautiful rural area of Hido, Iga City. It began when the opening dates of three village establishments—“Scoop,” “Fuurinya-shiki Kazekoro,” and “Cafe & Bar ChouChou”—happened to coincide on May 1, and it developed into an event celebrating each shop’s anniversary. With the theme “Enjoy Japan’s original landscapes and create Japan’s future,” the festival offers thanks to the village’s guardian deity, Hachidai Ryuo, and features a diverse program including a lion dance, a wind chime concert, belly dancing, and a performance by the erhu duo Onto. It will be held in May 2026.
