Hiroshima Setouchi Nomad Fest

Nomad event upcoming Hiroshima and Matsuyama, Japan October 11 – November 1, 2026 (Hiroshima Oct 11–25; Matsuyama / Setouchi Oct 25 – Nov 1) Hiroshima pass $280 early bird / $330; Matsuyama pass $230 / $270; all-access $357 / $420. Accommodation separate, via partner guesthouses and colivings

A three-week workation festival across the Setouchi Inland Sea, built so remote workers can join for a single week or the whole run. The 2026 edition splits into a Hiroshima city programme (October 11–25) and a Matsuyama retreat week (October 25 – November 1), under the theme 'Yohaku' — the Japanese idea of deliberate blank space. Days keep work hours free and fill the margins with bilingual skill-shares, cultural experiences with local residents such as calligraphy and mizuhiki cord-craft, and excursions around the islands. The first edition in 2025 drew over 490 participants from 57 nationalities.

Founded 2025 by Shoko Hirose and the Digital Nomads Hiroshima community; digital-nomad festival lineage rather than Zuzalu, closest in kind to Colive Fukuoka and Bansko Nomad Fest
