Snow Machine Will Be Bringing The Party to Both Niseko and Hakuba This Winter

Ever spent a week in Niseko or Hakuba with your best mates? Chances are it was a pretty hard holiday to top. A selection of world-class, Michelin-star rated bars and eateries, pow laps in waist-deep terrain, and all the chu-hai’s and konbini fried chicken the crew could ever muster – how could it ever be better than that?

If you’re still pondering your answer, don’t bother—Snow Machine has already made it better.

They will finally be bringing the party to Niseko!

Yep, you read that correctly – after two successful additions of Snow Machine in Hakuba, the annual music festival will be returning in 2025, and this time around – it’ll be stopping by both Niseko and Hakuba!

Hosted between the 4th to the 9th of March in Hakuba, and the 10th to 15th in Niseko, Snow Machine guarantees to be one the largest international events Niseko has ever seen, promising thousands of eager punters coming to town to revel in the festivities, support local businesses, and see some of the worlds largest touring acts descend upon Japan’s mountain ranges for what’s a two-week non-stop party.

At this stage, no official lineup has been announced for 2025’s events, but if we are basing it off previous events, we know it’s set to be a stacked lineup, with the festival’s previous two additions hosting everyone from Diplo, Hermitude and Nina Kraviz, to Todd Terje and Hilltop Hoods.
