One of Japan’s most beloved and internationally recognised music festivals, Fuji Rock Festival, has officially confirmed its 2026 dates. The iconic event will once again return to the picturesque Naeba Ski Resort in Yuzawa, Niigata from 24th to 26th July, 2026. Known for its lush mountain setting and world-class artist lineups, the festival continues to be a cornerstone of the Asian summer festival calendar.

Each year, Fuji Rock draws thousands of fans from across Japan and abroad, with past lineups boasting a diverse mix of international stars and local legends. The 2025 edition saw standout performances from Fred Again.., HAIM, Vampire Weekend, Radwimps, Four Tet, Vulfpeck, and 山下達郎, alongside dozens of rising acts and beloved cult favourites. With such a strong precedent, anticipation for 2026 is already building among fans eager to see who will grace the stages next.

Festivalgoers can expect the same signature blend of music, nature, and culture that defines Fuji Rock—complete with eclectic stage setups, forest paths, riverside chill zones, and a commitment to environmental sustainability. Beyond the music, the festival is known for its uniquely Japanese hospitality, welcoming atmosphere, and family-friendly vibe.

While the lineup is yet to be revealed, early bird fans are encouraged to keep an eye on ticket release announcements, typically launched in phases ahead of the event.
