About Chofu International Music Festival

"Chofu International Music Festival" is a music festival mainly featuring classical music, held every early summer in Chofu City. Since its start in 2013 as "Chofu Music Festival," it has been loved for its handmade sensibility and high-quality lineup, centered around musician Masato Suzuki. This year's theme, celebrating its 11th iteration, is "One Melody for All."

Animals of Chofu Forest

Have you spotted the animals that have come to play in various parts of our website? They are the characters symbolizing the Chofu International Music Festival. They all love music and have come from the forest of Chofu. The soft touch of the illustrations by woodblock print artist Sara is already familiar to festival fans. Many related goods are also available! You can purchase them at the festival venue♪
