Sumo Tournament Experience in Osaka

Make your Osaka trip memorable as you get to see Japan’s natural sports up close with a guide by your side who’ll explain sumo’s history, rules, and rituals.

Take part in a photo session with sumo wrestlers after the show and get to step into the ring for an interactive experience.

Visit the kimono area to try on a kimono haori (Japanese formal coat) or purchase one as a souvenir.

Choose how you experience the show; opt for a premium seat without a meal, a regular seat with a chanko-nabe hot pot, or a VIP seat that includes the meal and upgraded seating for the best view.

Enjoy a live sumo show from second-row seats, a Hirakuza bento box with a drink, a 10-minute cultural pre-show, a chance to learn sumo basics, watch live bouts between professionals, and take souvenir photos with the wrestlers.

Take part in an interactive small-group workshop where you’ll learn authentic sumo techniques, like shiko (foot stomping) and suriashi (sliding steps); directly from a former wrestler.

Opt for premium front-row seats to the sumo show for an up-close experience, or choose the workshop-only option with free seating and a delicious bowl of chanko-nabe included.
