INTERGALACTIC: PLANETFALL (Hinode (Tokyo), Japan) 2026

Intergalactic returns with its Planetfall edition in Hinode from 16 to 18 October 2026, running three days of electronic music in the mountains at the western edge of Tokyo Metropolis. Hinode is a town of around 16,000 people in the Nishitama district, an hour and a half from central Tokyo but entirely rural once you arrive, which is what makes it usable for an outdoor festival within the metropolitan boundary.

The festival sits in the Japanese outdoor party tradition that runs from Rainbow Disco Club and Labyrinth through to the smaller mountain gatherings, with programming across house, techno and more exploratory electronic music. The Planetfall framing carries through the production and the artwork, with the organisers publishing announcements through Instagram and the Resident Advisor listing.

Tickets are sold through Resident Advisor, which also carries the site information, timings and travel detail. Hinode is reached on the JR Itsukaichi line to Musashi-Itsukaichi and then by road, with Haneda around two hours away. Mid October in the Kanto mountains brings cool nights and the first autumn colour. For a Tokyo area outdoor music festival, it is one of the few that works at this time of year.
