Pop Japan

What to do in a ski resort during summer? Why not hold the biggest and the most energy-pumping musical event in Japan?

Every July, the Fuji Rock Festival gathers the best crowd at the Naeba Ski Resort for the best musical experience. Happening in Niigata Prefecture, the Fuji Rock Festival is a three-day event which brings the hottest musical icons, not only in Japan but around the world. Organized by Smash Japan, Fuji Rock Festival is considered the largest outdoor headbang event in Japan, which records around 150,000 music enthusiasts every year. Some of the international artists that played in the Fuji Rock stage are the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Radiohead and Coldplay.
