The 21st Shibuya Music Festival (第21回渋谷音楽祭2026), also called SHIBUYA MUSIC SCRAMBLE 2026, takes over Shibuya on Saturday, October 17 and Sunday, October 18, 2026. The full lineup was announced on October 7. The idea is simple: the streets themselves become the stage, and music, dance, fashion, anime and street culture share the same space for two days.

Tips before you go
- Pick Sunday afternoon if you can only come once. From 13:00 to about 16:00, the closed road stages, SHIBUYA109 STAGE, Shibuya Street Live and the station concert all overlap within walking distance.
- Check X on the day. Weather calls for the TOKYO FM stage come from the TOKYO FM account, and for Shibuya Street Live from its own account. Several stage times are still marked as planned.
- Keep your phone charged. You’ll be checking timetables and maps all day. If you have d VALUE PASS, ChargeSPOT power bank rentals can be free.
- Expect crowds near the Scramble. The closed road area sits right at the busiest part of Shibuya, so agree on a meeting point if you come with friends.
- Planning more weekends out? We also cover the Musashino Art University Festival later in October.
