Many people may hesitate to go out with their beloved dogs because of the high daytime temperatures. Therefore, we recommend the "Premium Dog Festa ~Summer Night Market~" being held at Shisui Premium Outlets on July 5th and 6th. This is one of the largest outdoor dog festivals in Kanto, themed "Staying Up Late with Dogs".

From the evening to night (3 PM - 8 PM), when the heat eases, 185 stores offering dog goods will line up. There will be an abundance of items you want to get for your beloved dog, including walking gear and clothing! Just a 7-minute walk from the venue, there are three dog runs available. These can also be used from 3 PM to 8 PM, allowing you to let your dogs play during cooler hours.

If you go out with your beloved dog, you will want to capture a memorable photo! At "Belle’s café," a dog café with a shooting studio located about a 5-minute drive from Shisui Premium Outlets, you can take fantastical night-version photos utilizing darkness.

I often go to Shisui Premium Outlet with my beloved dog, and I'm happy to find that there are many stores where pets are allowed. In particular, I frequently use the terrace seating at J.S. Pancake Cafe, where I can relax and enjoy delicious pancakes. The facility also has leash hooks and dog waste disposal boxes, creating a comfortable environment for visitors with dogs.

**[Points I Want to Highlight]** Not only can you buy dog goods, but there's also a nearby dog park, which is the main point where my dog can have fun. It's nice that both the entrance fee and parking are free, making it easy to participate. Since it’s held at the Shisui Premium Outlet, it's also great that once my dog gets tired from playing, I can enjoy shopping.

Event Name: Premium Dog Festa ~Summer Night Market~ Date and Time: July 5th and 6th, 15:00 - 20:00 Venue: Shisui Premium Outlet P7・P9 Admission Fee: Free
