Profile

【SUKIYAKI MEETS THE WORLD COMMITTEE】
All the program is defined by a volunteer staff team (250 persons), gathering every Thursday all year long (25 to 30 meetings per year) to decide the shapes and the contents of the festival.
Every stage, every workshop, every conference is led by a volunteer team. Artist care, stage sound & lights, instruments, promotion, information documents, designs, catering, etc… are thought and entirely handled by volunteers.
The Sukiyaki Festival is the heart of a network of venues in Japan, producing events, performances and workshops before or after the festival, in Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo, etc… SUKIYAKI TOKYO, SUKIYAKI OKINAWA(since 2015) and SUKIYAKI NAGOYA (since 2015), are gathering attention in the whole country.
