Running and wellness events in Kobe

Overview

Various running and wellness events have been announced for Kobe, Japan, in October 2026.

Yano Sporting Goods Co., Ltd. will host the ‘RUN TRY FESTA 2026’ on October 3 in the Suma area. This experiential event allows participants to test running shoes from eight major brands, such as Nike and Asics, during a 20km pace run.

Separately, Asics Japan and Vissel Kobe have announced a collaborative wellness project titled ‘It’s My Day’ for October 24. Scheduled to take place at and around Noevir Stadium Kobe, the event features a 3km group run focused on physical comfort rather than speed. Approximately 60 selected participants will have the opportunity to test specific Asics shoe models and participate in a stadium tour. This event will be followed by a football match.

Additionally, Vissel Kobe has launched a project to invite 2,000 high school students from Hyogo Prefecture to home games for free through a lottery system.
