Fuji Rock Festival (フジロックフェスティバル)
Time: Late July
Prefecture: Niigata
Location: Naeba Ski Resort

Fuji Rock is the largest music festival in Japan, drawing between 100,000 and 150,000 people in normal years. Located in the picturesque Naeba Ski Resort, about a 90-minute train ride from Tokyo, the festival has been running since 1997, with its international attendance steadily growing.

Primarily held outdoors, featuring only one indoor stage, attendees must be prepared for both rain and shine. With its Japanese essence, Fuji Rock offers hot springs for soaking and nature walks, providing a bit of a Glastonbury vibe, including the possibility of stumbling upon secret woodland gigs. It's a festival that encourages exploration and embraces both music and nature.
