DOG SPORTS FESTIVAL Supported by PS insurance (wanspo)
This fall, Rinko Park in Yokohama will be filled with the smiles of dogs and their owners for two fun-filled days! While participatory events where people “run and take on challenges together with their dogs” are popular overseas, such events are still rare in Japan, where most dog-related gatherings focus on food stalls or merchandise sales. Wanspo aims to change that trend by launching from Yokohama a new, experience-based cultural event where dogs and their owners can move their bodies, work up a sweat, and share joyful moments together.
Wanspo’s Vision for the Future
Deepening and naturalizing the bond between people and dogs — Wan-Spo aims to create a society where people, dogs, nature, and the city coexist in harmony.

Creating a space along Yokohama’s waterfront where people can feel close to nature and enjoy outdoor activities.
Promote Coexistence with Dogs
Providing opportunities for dogs and people to participate together in society, fostering understanding and good manners.
Smiles Through Activities
Enjoying shared experiences through hands-on events like SUP, snowboarding, and dog sports.
Offer Diverse Ways to Engage
