The festival that began in 2014 consolidates five music festivals and other live concerts, including Sunset Live in Itoshima and Nakasu Jazz. It attracted approximately 260,000 people in 2019 and symbolized Fukuoka\u2019s vibrant music culture. While the cancelation of the performances will cause significant financial damage, the organizer is eagerly seeking ways to continue the tradition: A month-long online music event \u2018Music Action Fukuoka\u2019 will take place in September. Daily free music clips from live houses and other locations will be streamed online, aiming to deliver music from Fukuoka worldwide. <\/span><b>Source:<\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/f-musicmonth.jp\/news\/news-notice\/maf\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Music Month<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/FMM.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-134485\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/FMM.jpg?resize=1400%2C934&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"934\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/FMM.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/FMM.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/FMM.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/FMM.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Disclaimer<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Fukuoka Now posts summaries of Kyushu area news for those who cannot read Japanese.
