Why You Should Visit
A two-day fan festival for B.LEAGUE's Kobe Storks, held at GLION ARENA KOBE before the new season tips off. Watch open practices, a press conference introducing new signings, cheerleader performances, and an intrasquad game on the 15th, plus basketball clinics run by the team's coaches. Festival stalls, bouncy castles, and a petting zoo make it easy to spend the day even if you're not a basketball fan.
