The Japanese beer year 季節のカレンダー

Beer gardens open on rooftops from May and close with the rain. Festival season peaks in September and October. Winter belongs to the taprooms.

Summer Beer Gardens Rooftops, department stores and hotel terraces — open all summer, book in advance.

Autumn beer festivals October is the busiest month of the festival calendar — Oktoberfests, craft beer weekends and harvest events across the country.

Accurate to the source

Every date, venue and time is checked against the organiser's own announcement, and listings come down when something is cancelled or moved.
Every kind of beer event

Festivals, summer beer gardens, brewery open days and one-off taproom events — not just the big-city headliners.
Free to list

Listing costs organisers nothing, which is how a small local festival ends up here alongside the big ones.
