Fuji Rock Festival

Fuji Rock Festival is one of the largest music festivals in Japan and is annually held at the Naeba Ski Resort in Niigata Prefecture.
And in this year, the dates are from July 28th to July 30th in 2023.

A great many people in Japan or in other countries would get together for this festival for 3 days every year, and it would be incredibly crowded everywhere.
So if you are planning to participate in this festival all through the day, using a campervan rental is more convenient.

We will give you some tips to have a great time at the festival!

1. Reserve a campervan

You would better rent a campervan which can depart from Haneda Airport, because the venue of the Fuji Rock Festival is located in the countryside and has bad transportation.

And the best point of choosing us is that we have a dispatch service of campervans up to the Haneda Airport.

If you would like to make your trip more comfortable and exciting, please do not hesitate to contact us!
