Pet Expo 2026 Osaka: Pet-Friendly Event at INTEX OSAKA

The "Pet Expo 2026 Osaka" will be held at INTEX OSAKA from September 21st to 23rd, 2026. This experience-based event welcomes visitors with their pets, embodying the concept "Pets are Family." It offers a variety of attractions for both pet owners and non-owners alike.

Activities for Pets and Owners

Attendees can participate in fun activities with their dogs, including sports days and a 30-meter dash. These events provide a great opportunity to discover new aspects of your pet and interact with other participants. For your pet's health, ensure they have received necessary vaccinations, including the rabies vaccine for dogs over 91 days old. Please note that wearing "Manner Wear" (diapers) and keeping leashes short are mandatory within the venue.

Animal Encounters and Special Shows

For those without pets, the "Animal Interaction Farm" offers a chance to get close to small animals like sheep, goats, and chicks. The event also features a "Cat Show" where cat enthusiasts showcase their beloved companions, and the "Guenta☆Show" where dogs display impressive tricks. The popular "Cat Trimming Competition" from last year is also set to return, promising exciting performances.

Shopping and Dining

A wide array of booths will offer pet goods and food, providing opportunities for great shopping finds. Food trucks will also be available, ensuring a delightful culinary experience. Some attractions may have separate participation or feeding fees in addition to the admission price, so checking the official website in advance is recommended.
