Rokko Meets Art is a contemporary art festival held every year on Mount Rokko in Kobe.
Since ancient times, Mount Rokko has been a familiar and beloved mountain. This year, approximately 60 groups of artists will engage with the nature of this land and the stories woven here over the years, presenting a diverse range of artistic expressions.
We invite you to enjoy encounters between the mountain, people, and art in the unique setting of Mount Rokko.
