About the Festival

The Rising Sun Rock Festival (RSR) began in 1999 as Japan’s first all-night outdoor rock event. Built from scratch each year on bare land, RSR becomes a temporary music town — with electricity, water, stages, and community spirit — hosting thousands of fans under the night sky and the rising sun.
