LA’s one-and-only Japanese music festival is preparing to bring people together on 7/22(SAT) and 7/23 (SUN). The event will be action-packed with Japanese food, music and culture; something for everyone to enjoy! With the goal of supporting Japanese and Japanese-American artists and spreading the love for Japanese music in the United States, Rising Japan MusicFest is an event organized and hosted by the creators of the OC JAPAN FAIR. Two outdoor stages will showcase Japanese, Japanese-American and American artists!
Enjoy stand-up comedy, meet the maids from Arcane Maid Cafe, watch a dance performance, and see stars perform in person like legendary pop duo Def Tech, Shanice, the American singer-songwriter behind the hit song “I Love Your Smile,” Los Angeles-based reggae artist Iakopo, and Minami, a TikTok hit singer produced by Naoki Wada, who also produced End of the World.
Along with music, fans can enjoy shopping and a variety of Japanese food stands! Try authentic Japanese
food from one of 14 vendors, including Asahi Beer, Daikokuya and Shin-Sen-Gumi. Fans can also roam
through Japan-inspired pop-up shops to browse a selection of goods and crafts. Sake testing from some of Japan’s most iconic brands will also be available.
