❤️STORY❤️
The Bakugenjin Village festival, the Mangetsusai Festival🌕, which is one of he oldest festivals in Japan.It has been held every summer on the full moon since the 1980s, originally organized by Masai, now organization of the festival passed down to the next generation🌈we keep his legacy alive.
Let’s create a wonderful world together, let people connect to each other😁
🌳About the location🌳
The venue, Bakugenjin Village, is located deep in the mountains, 4km away from the national highway, on a forest road.At that time, the beatnik, hippie culture and counter culture were sprouting and spreading, and this is an original place where Masai and Akira settled and developed to find freedom and utopia.
Starting with no electricity, gas, or running water, they gathered their friends and continued to live as a self-sufficient community.
All the buildings and facilities in Bakugenjin Village were build by the members of the community. Everything is handmade and homemade. Currently, electricity is generated by solar power, and clean water supply comes from the river and groundwater. Yes, water is very clean. We do check it.
Please be informed, there is no mobile phone signal on the territory of the festival.
A large river flows here, and it’s a full immerse in nature experience✨
This is a place where you can truly feel freedom.
It’s a camping trip in the middle of nature🏕,
so please bring your own tent and necessary items✨

✨Pay attention✨
🌈🌈How to play at this year’s Mangetsusai Festival🌈🌈
I think it’s very important to share our worldview,
so I hope you will cooperate and sympathize with us🌈
This year’s Mangetsusai Festival🌕 will also have free places for
vendors, musicians, artists and workshop masters.
✨Feel free to come and organize them and attend them✨
✨Market✨
✨Open Mic performances✨
✨Workshops🎵✨
✨Art Space (in process)✨
✨Let’s let everyone’s free spirits run wild!✨
Feel Free. Everyone, do whatever you want❤️please❣️
I always think that if we tune into each other’s wavelengths, we can connect and play together
If we could do it all the time,
What a wonderful and fun world could be🌈.
Everyone, please come and express yourself with peace, peace✌️🌈
If you get too much free, you may end up arguing with each other,
It happens, that’s just human nature😊
There’s no hierarchy, so let’s solve the problem ourselves, without blaming anyone else,
by knowing our differences and ourselves,
and resolving it peacefully in a friendly way🌈
I believe if we practice non aggressive way of communication between each other on a personal level,
maybe the wars on his planet will stop.
Let’s have love, non-violence, no war, peace,
and have fun with Charanke (talking) to the end🌈
Thank you❣️
🌕We attempt something new this year.
We hope to establish festival currency called “TIP Chara”🤲
During the Mangetsusai Festival u can u use it everywhere – to buy stuff at he market, o buy food and also, please use “TIP Chara” to show your support and gratitude to the performers, festival headquarters staff, workshops, and other people who are involved into activities,
and I would be happy if you could circulate everyone’s feelings.
Donations in “Chara” are very welcome🌈
Please share your feelings and gratitude after the performances🌈
This money would go to the future activities fund, so please cooperate🎵
Wasshoi wasshoi
