Sanuki Connect General Partnership
Sanuki Connect 2026 is managed by a General Partnership between the following two companies. We operate with a professional structure dedicated to revitalizing the regional economy and creating Japan's most global festival.
Enjoyed today? Next year will be even bigger.
The Sanuki Tanuki Festival is the first step toward the full-scale Sanuki Connect launch planned for Spring 2027. The next stage: the "Theatron," a 10,000-capacity outdoor amphitheater overlooking the Seto Inland Sea. The connections born here today will lead to an even bigger story next year.
Sanuki's Hidden Gem — A Breathtaking Stage Awaiting Discovery.
The "Theatron" sits at the tip of the Ogushi Peninsula — a grand outdoor amphitheater overlooking the Seto Inland Sea. We aim to host a major festival here with world-class musicians, DJs, and local cuisine, rediscovering the region through music and food.
Help Us Create This Event
We are assembling a project team for the full-scale Theatron launch in 2027. Bring your skills in music, operations, regional coordination, and more.
