Background & History

Nagano Aniera Festa 2025, Nagano Prefecture’s largest outdoor anime song (anisong) festival, takes place on September 13–14, 2025, at Komaba Park in Saku City, Nagano. Launched in 2017, this annual event aims to establish Nagano as a pop culture hub, blending high-energy live performances with the region’s natural beauty and local hospitality. Held in the scenic, open-air Komaba Park, the festival features vibrant visuals by Nagano-born artist Mai Yoneyama, anisong artists, voice actors, and local Shinshu cuisine and sake. The 2025 lineup includes Aoi Shouta, Eir Aoi, FLOW, THE IDOLM@STER SHINY COLORS, and RAISE A SUILEN, among others. With a capacity of approximately 10,000–15,000, the festival offers a laid-back yet electrifying atmosphere, distinct from urban anime conventions. Visitors can explore Saku’s countryside charm, nearby Karuizawa’s resorts, or Nagano’s Zenko-ji Temple, making it a perfect blend of anime culture and regional tourism.

Disclaimer

Jasumo offers a facilitation service for foreign tourists and non-Japanese residents in Japan, helping them access and apply for tickets to various events, including but not limited to sports, festivals, and cultural activities. We are not a reseller of tickets, nor do we sell tickets directly. Our role is to support international customers by guiding them through the official ticket booking process, ensuring they can secure their tickets through recognized platforms and authorized providers.

As a business based in Japan with a bilingual staff and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by non-Japanese visitors, we address common bottlenecks such as:

• Language Barriers: Navigating Japan’s primarily Japanese-language ticketing systems can be challenging for foreign tourists. Jasumo provides bilingual support to bridge this gap and ensure a smooth booking experience.
• Access to Japanese-Only Platforms: Many events in Japan require local knowledge to navigate and access, and often these platforms do not offer international payment options or are difficult to use for non-Japanese speakers. We facilitate the booking process by providing guidance and helping with international payment methods where applicable.
• Limited Availability & Complex Registration: Events in Japan often have limited capacity, and understanding the timing and process for securing tickets can be confusing for international visitors. Jasumo helps you manage deadlines and requirements, giving you the best chance of securing your entry.

Due to high demand (10,000–15,000 capacity, lottery-based sales), tickets may sell out quickly. While we facilitate the registration process, availability cannot be guaranteed. Refunds will only be issued if entries cannot be secured through official channels. We strongly recommend applying early during the lottery period (by August 11, 2025) to maximize your chances of attending.
