Hiroshima Setouchi Nomad Fest will take place from October 18 to November 5, 2025, offering digital nomads the opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich culture, history, and breathtaking landscapes of Hiroshima and the Setouchi region.

Located in the southwest of Japan’s main island, the Hiroshima-Setouchi region is known for its stunning island-dotted coastline, peaceful cycling routes like the Shimanami Kaido, and rich cultural heritage.

While Hiroshima is globally known for the devastation of the atomic bomb, the city has since transformed into a global symbol of peace and resilience – home to memorials, museums, and initiatives that inspire reflection and hope.

Participants will explore both the vibrant city of Hiroshima and the scenic coastal areas of Shimanami and Onomichi, experiencing Japan beyond the surface while embracing a lifestyle of work, exploration, and authentic local interaction.
