Overview

Rockin’on Japan has announced the third edition of its Western music festival, Rockin’on Sonic 2027, which is scheduled to take place on January 9 and 10, 2027, at SGC Hall Ariake in Tokyo.

Producer Yoichiro Yamazaki stated that the festival is moving from a 20,000-capacity venue to a 5,000-capacity hall to “ensure financial sustainability following previous losses.” The selected venue, SGC Hall Ariake, utilizes permanent immersive audio technology.
