The Saturday lineup features yama, syudou, and the metalcore sensation Hanabie., while Sunday brings legendary rock band Ulfuls, the energetic Kyuso Nekokami, and pop-rock favorites Humbreaders. Both days include opening acts like Betty Duckling’s and Satellite.

The two venues are located within walking distance of each other in the Takasaki Station area. The festival is a “circuit-style” event within the city, so you can use your wristband to move freely between the stages at both locations throughout the day.
