The ultimate urban festival from J-WAVE! Coming soon!
"J-WAVE LIVE" is a major J-WAVE summer live event that has been held annually since 2000. From this year, under the theme 'TOKYO CULTURE TO THE WORLD', the event has evolved into "J-WAVE presents INSPIRE TOKYO ~ BEST MUSIC & MARKET", an urban festival featuring live performances, as well as a food court and market filled with the originality that only Tokyo can offer, making the whole day a casual, fun and delicious experience.
We aim to create an event where people from all over Japan and the world gather in Shibuya for this one day, and where they can "understand the culture of Tokyo today".
In addition to "CRAFT SAKE WEEKEND" and the "NIHONMONO Store", the venue will also host the "CURRY COLLECTION", where popular curry shops in Shibuya will have pop-up food stalls, and the "MUGI FES" [Wheat Festival], where popular bakeries will sell their products on a daily basis.
Admission to the market area is free, so even those without a ticket for the live show can enter free of charge.
