This year’s Opening Live Tour (OLT) ran with multiple stages for the first time. WMDF favourites Zahatorte and Kumonosu Quartet wowed veterans and newcomers alike, supported by regulars Hinokiya.

This was also the time for us to announce the international artists for this summer’s WMDF in August. Posters and fliers were given to all customers.

Please check online over the next few days for the general release.

As well as the great music, Kumonosu and Zahatorte were generous enough to say a few kind words about our summer event. Sample comments:

“WMDF is the most enjoyable festival in Japan!”

“We are not booked at the beginning of August, so we might just come and watch!”

“We want to drink from mid-day”.

You too can join in at the outdoor stages in Motomachi Park from Aug 5 to Aug 10.
