LOCALGREEN FESTIVAL at Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse Is Now Free: Nov 7–8 Timetable, Market and Access

LOCALGREEN FESTIVAL, the autumn music festival at Yokohama’s Red Brick Warehouse, no longer needs a ticket. On Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8, 2026, every area of the festival, live stages included, is free to enter.

There are three stages with 48 artists and DJs across the weekend, plus a market of about 80 shops selling plants, vintage clothing and food from food trucks. Gates open at 11:00 and the music runs until 21:00, so you can browse the market by day and catch the harbourside main stage in the evening.

Based on the official festival website as of November 5, 2026.

Dates, venue and entry

The festival’s concept is “Life with Green”: good music alongside plants, fashion, food and local community. The stages sit with the historic brick warehouses behind them and the harbour in front, which is what makes this venue special.

From paid festival to free entry

Since it started in 2018, LOCALGREEN FESTIVAL has been a ticketed event. Last year (2025), a general one-day ticket cost 12,000 yen and a two-day pass 20,000 yen; even the early-bird one-day ticket was 11,000 yen. On July 22 the organiser announced that from 2026 it would run as a free-entry “free festival”, to bring its green culture to more people.

One thing worth knowing before you go: the line-up has changed in character. The 2025 edition featured big names such as Ulfuls, ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, SHISHAMO and Suiyoubi no Campanella. This year the main stage features artists such as TENDRE, kiki vivi lily, LUCKY TAPES, YONA YONA WEEKENDERS and NakamuraEmi, while the other two stages are mostly DJs. If you are expecting a major rock festival, it will feel different. As a free day out by the water with music and a market, though, it is very good value.

Timetable for both days

CACTUS STAGE is the main stage, starting at 12:00 on both days with a new act every 90 minutes. SOL STAGE is hosted by solfa and COUNTER CLUB on Saturday and by BATICA and ORD. on Sunday. REDBRICK CLUB, curated by The Room Shibuya, is the first to start, at 11:00 on both days. Times below are start times.

Saturday, November 7

Sunday, November 8

The market: about 80 shops

Even if you skip the stages, the market alone can fill a day. According to the final shop list, it is split into four areas:

Entry is free, but food and market items are paid for separately, of course. Official merchandise (T-shirts, sweatshirts, caps, towels and bandanas) is sold at the venue and also online at ZOZOTOWN and the GREENROOM WEB STORE.

On the map, the main CACTUS STAGE is on the harbour side. The vintage, local and green markets and the official merchandise stand are between the two warehouses. Food is in two places: the lawn on the harbour side, which has benches, and next to REDBRICK CLUB.

How to plan your day

Pick your day by the main stage. Saturday evening runs 16:30 TENDRE, 18:00 kiki vivi lily, 19:30 KOMOREBI. Sunday has 15:00 NakamuraEmi, 16:30 LUCKY TAPES, 18:00 Hana Hope and 19:30 YONA YONA WEEKENDERS. On both days the main stage closes with its 19:30 act.

Arriving before noon? Start with the market. At 11:00 only REDBRICK CLUB is playing; CACTUS STAGE and SOL STAGE start at 12:00. The market areas open at 11:00, so you can look round the plants and vintage stalls first.

Buy big items last. There is no cloakroom, and the organiser suggests using coin lockers nearby. If a potted plant or a piece of furniture catches your eye, note the stall and come back for it on your way out.

Another free event by the harbour the same weekend. From 10:00 to 16:00 on November 7 and 8, the free Osanbashi Marche (about 90 stalls) is on at Osanbashi Pier. In the evening, you could head to the Chinatown lantern lights (lit from November 1). For other weekends, the event calendar lets you browse free events by date.
