The Exciting Connection of Music and Photography at Hibiya Music Festival 2025
The serene landscape of Higashikawa Town, often celebrated as the 'Town of Photography,' is set to bring its unique charm to the
Hibiya Music Festival 2025, scheduled for
May 31 and June 1. This year marks the
fourth year of Higashikawa's participation, emphasizing collaboration between
music and photography as its core theme.
The festival is envisioned as a
free and borderless music festival, allowing everyone to engage in a variety of musical experiences. It will take place at
Hibiya Park, a historic venue recognized as a sacred space for Japan's open-air concerts, featuring stunning performances that everyone can enjoy.
The festival aims to create a
new cycle of music, reflecting the diversity and depth of musical experiences available to attendees. Seiji Kameda, the chairman of the festival's executive committee and a representative from Higashikawa’s official partner,
Makoto-ya Co., Ltd., has voiced the festival's mission clearly:
“I want to create a space where people of all generations, genres, and preferences can discover various forms of music. This festival should be a starting point for many to appreciate the breadth and depth of music and the joy it brings.”
Higashikawa Town recognizes the power of art in enriching cultural experiences and believes that this year’s festival will continue to enhance its reputation as a hub for photographic culture. Throughout the festival, the town's booth will offer engaging activities that fuse visual art with musical performances, celebrating the spirit of creativity.
