One of Japan's largest live circuits, which has never been seen before in the Tokyo rock scene, will finally start this fall.
The name of the event is "TOKYO CALLING 2016".
Held in Shimokitazawa, Shinjuku, and Shibuya during this year's Silver Week, September 17 (Sat), September 18 (Sun), and September 19 (Mon/Holiday), 2016.
Focusing on the three central areas of the Tokyo music scene, Shimokitazawa, Shinjuku, and Shibuya, the event will be held at 10 venues in Shimokitazawa on September 17, the first day, 10 venues in Shinjuku on September 18, and 10 venues in Shibuya on September 19, the last day, for a total of 30 live houses with a total of 300 artists scheduled to participate.
Tokyo is the center of Japan and the center of music, but in the rock world, the Kansai region has recently been gaining momentum. The main reason for this is the abundance of circuit events and festivals, where individual event organizers, live houses, event promoters, FM stations, and TV stations organically intertwine with each other, creating a system that allows bands to grow automatically. In spite of this, there are no circuit events in Tokyo that can compare to these events, so the best circuit festivals in Japan, such as Osaka's "All you can see", Nagoya's "De La Rock", and Fukuoka's "TENJIN ONTAQ", have joined together in Tokyo to finally launch one of the largest live circuits in Japan.
The purpose of this event is to create the best rock scene in Japan by combining the independent scenes in Shimokitazawa, Shinjuku, and Shibuya. We believe that we can create this event together with all artists, music offices, and record companies, and over the next five to ten years, we can create an environment in which artists can continue to make music for the rest of their lives at this "TOKYO CALLING 2016".
