Why You Should Visit
A night marche to enjoy with your dog, set against the illuminated Ferris wheel at Kobe Mosaic. This edition is the largest yet, with around 120 distinctive shops from across Japan offering dog treats, summer cool goods, glow-in-the-dark items and care products, alongside food trucks. Held over two evenings on the waterfront once the heat eases, it's a relaxed outing for you and your dog. Admission is free, and you can take in the harbour night view while you shop and eat — a good option for a summer outing with your pet.
