Analog Market returns to Tokyo this fall, bringing together vinyl records, live music, a flea market and immersive listening experiences for a month-long celebration of analog culture.
Running from September 2 to October 4, 2026, the event will take place at SKAC (SKWAT KAMEARI ART CENTRE) in Kameari, Tokyo. This year’s edition is planned and produced by Audio-Technica, record shop VDS (Vinyl Delivery Service), and SKWAT.
From a record market featuring more than 20 shops to live performances and spaces dedicated to exploring the nuances of sound, here’s what to expect at Analog Market 2026.
What to Expect at Analog Market 2026
Record Market, Live Music and Flea Market
On September 12 and 13, more than 20 record shops from across Japan are expected to gather for the event’s Record Market.
A flea market featuring vintage items and crafts is also planned, alongside live events and workshops taking place on weekends throughout the month.
The current lineup includes Church of Sound on September 19 and a Field Recording Workshop on September 26 and 27. More participating artists and vendors will be announced on the event’s official website.
Compare Different Sounds at the Listening Station
How much can the materials used in headphones or the shape of a record cartridge stylus change what you hear?
The permanent Listening Station lets visitors compare these differences firsthand and experience the distinct characteristics they bring to sound.
Tune In to the Sounds Around You at the Listening Room
The Listening Room invites visitors to focus not only on music, but on the sounds of the surrounding environment—the kinds of sounds that often fade into the background of everyday life.
Located beneath elevated JR train tracks, SKAC makes use of the vibrations and sounds of its surroundings to create a listening experience unique to the venue.
What Is Analog Market?
Analog Market is an experiential project that began as part of Audio-Technica’s 60th anniversary. Through records, live performances, flea markets and other programs, the project explores different aspects of analog culture.
Previous editions have been held at venues including Tsukiji Hongwanji. The 2026 edition marks the first time the event has been planned and produced jointly by Audio-Technica, VDS and SKWAT.
