The World Music and Dance Festival is organised by the Committee of the World Music and Dance Festival, which is an activity of the non-profit World Music and Dance Festival General Incorporated Association (WMDF GIA). Production is by Hitococochi Inc.

WMDF is made possible thanks to the efforts of its staff, who volunteer their time usually for free. Their efforts ensure that WMDF can continue to be a success, and attract overseas artists to a unique experience in Japan.

Interested in being involved? Please see the Team WMDF page, and the staff blog.
A staff manual is forthcoming for 2011.

Chairman Ian Frank (WMDF GIA Co-Director)
Artistic Director Naoto Soga (WMDF GIA Co-Director)
Secretariat Takuma Fukuda
Inspector Motoaki Kitamura
