Beyond festival items, GAN-BAN also offers albums and merchandise from bands like “US,” a Finnish band that signed to Fuji Rock Festival founder Mr.Hidaka’s label “REXY SONG.” This band is set to perform for all three days at Fuji Rock Festival 2024, with a special acoustic live on the second day at GAN-BAN Square, an area dedicated to the store at the festival venue in Naeba Ski Resort. This square also features a GAN-BAN bar, perfect for enjoying the festival vibes late into the night, located to the left of the Oasis area.
