Business Overview

Aiming to promote the flourishing of the Japanese handpan scene and improve the skills of handpan players, the festival provides opportunities for amateur performers to perform and creates a forum for information exchange. It also brings together top handpan players, including DAHMA (a handpan and bass duo band) and Koji Matsumoto, who are active both in Japan and overseas, as well as the first band set by Takao Minemoto, who is popular on YouTube. It showcases the possibilities of the handpan and provides a visually appealing, high-quality artistic experience. <Tokyo Handpan Festival '22 Timetable> 13:30 DJ Yumii 14:30 Opening Ceremony 14:40 cojicose & Shimako Sarumaru 15:00 RRyusuque 15:20 Tatsunori Hara 15:40 Yohei Hirano feat.
