What you can expect

Sumo Show & Cultural Experience

Sumo is one of Japan’s most iconic traditional sports, with centuries of history and traditions. Learn about its rules, etiquette, and culture while watching exciting live bouts by former professional sumo wrestlers up close. Discover the strength, discipline, and traditions behind sumo in an entertaining and interactive setting designed for international visitors.

After the show, step into the dohyō (sumo ring) to learn basic sumo movements from former rikishi and enjoy the opportunity to join a Sumo Match Experience with a Former Rikishi. It’s a memorable chance to experience the world of sumo beyond simply watching from your seat.

Optional Chanko Nabe and Wagyu Sukiyaki meal plans are also available.

Families Welcome

Discounted tickets are available for children aged 7–12, while children 6 and under join for free. Young guests are given priority for the Sumo Match Experience. Children’s chairs are available upon request.

Kimono & Haori Experience

Before the show, freely try on a traditional Japanese haori and take photos. Premium Kimono Dressing is available as a paid add-on.

Food Experience — Optional

Chanko Nabe is a traditional hot pot eaten by sumo wrestlers. Our recipe is inspired by the flavours of the stable where our former rikishi once trained.

Meals are included only when a meal plan is selected.

Karaage, yakitori, takoyaki, and other dishes are available to order. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are available. Meat dishes use chicken or beef. Alcoholic drinks are also available.
