Wanwan Carnival

Wanwan Carnival is a vibrant outdoor festival in Yoyogi Park dedicated entirely to dogs and their owners. The weekend event features lively activities like the “Quick Eat Contest,” professional training workshops, and canine health consultations. Visitors can explore a marketplace filled with unique pet apparel and artisanal treats or visit professional photography studios. It is a premier social gathering where thousands of dogs celebrate canine companionship in busy central Tokyo.

A major highlight is the “Barking Contest” held on the main stage, alongside demonstrations by professional agility teams. The event plaza is lined with booths offering everything from specialized organic dog food to custom-made harnesses. Additionally, onsite veterinarians provide free basic health checks and advice on pet care. Owners can also participate in the “Lookalike Contest” or join organized walks through the park’s designated dog run areas, which remain open to the public during the festivities.
