What to expect

Japanese sumo wrestling tours are special events where wrestlers leave major cities like Tokyo to interact with fans in various local cities. The pace of these tours is more relaxed than official tournaments, with a greater emphasis on experience and entertainment, making them ideal for tourists experiencing sumo for the first time.

The day's itinerary begins with a meeting at Osaka JR Station, followed by a train ride to GLION ARENA KOBE in Kobe. The dohyo (sumo ring) and spectator seats set up on-site allow you to observe the wrestlers' entrance, pre-match rituals, and intense matches up close.

The tour is held indoors, so it is not affected by the weather. The spacious arena ensures that sounds and movements are clearly felt. After the matches, you are free to leave, allowing you to easily plan a day of cultural experiences while deeply experiencing the charm of traditional Japanese sports.

Sumo wrestling is not just a contest of strength, but also a microcosm of Japanese traditional culture. Every wrestler's entrance, stance, and ritual carries a strong sense of history.
