Are you ready for this, Okinawa?! The much anticipated and iconic AmericaFest is back on Kadena Air Base after nearly a decade long hiatus and we are pulling out all of the stops!  From April 22 – 23rd, the gates to the Kadena base Airfield will open to our friends and neighbors for an unforgettable experience that will bring the US military community and the allies and partners of Japan together in a celebration of our long standing friendship.

The Kadena Air Base flightline will transform into an outdoor playground with something for everyone in the family! We’ll have a myriad of static displays, food, kids’ entertainment, and amazing performances you won’t want to miss!  

We are delighted to welcome two-time grammy award winner and effervescent pop-maker, Colbie Caillat back to the Kadena stage as she headlines Saturday night with an unforgettable set with the hits you know by heart and fireworks to close out night one with a bang!  With two stages, be prepared for endless entertainment and performances to suit every preference from the III MEF Band, dance acts and electrifying DJ sets!  

Come for the entertainment, but stay for the food and beverage! Satisfy your cravings with selections from our 30 food trucks and 27 food vendors and then wash it down with an ice cold beer or margarita from the Beverage Tent.  

AmericaFest is a family event with a massive footprint dedicated to KiddieLand will rides, carnival games and the always popular Teddy Mountain experience so you can take a memento of your time with us to remember.
