Hello! I am Madoka
.
Thank you very much for coming my page.

I am very happy to have this chance to inform you about Japan.

My English and sentences probably have mistakes, please be fast and loose. ( ^v^)/

Don’ t you want to watch a “Sumo” tournament when you are in Japan?

In the last article , I introduced about sumo tournaments and reservation.

When you reserve a seat of “Sumo” tournament, you must select your seat.

Today I will inform you about kinds of seat at RYOGOKU KOKUGI KAN where Tokyo’s grand sumo“ tournament is held in January, May, and September.

1, The access for RYOGOKU KOKUGI KAN

Address: 1-3-28 Yokozuna Sumkida-ku Tokyo-to, 130-0015, Japan
It is located in front of Japan Railway(JR)-RYOGOKU station.
Very convenience location!

1st Floor

2nd Floor

3, To get “Same-Day ticket”

It is one of  the most popular entertainment for Japanese and foreigner.

So it is very difficult to by a seat ticket.

I strongly recommend to buy it on the internet from the HP of Nihon Sumo Kyokai.

The reservation on the internet can be made up to 2 months in advance.

You can buy a ticket for a chair seat on 2nd floor on the day at Ryogoku Kokugi Kan..

But keep your mind, it is a hard competition.

The same day ticket(for 350 sheets) will be started selling at 7:00AM.

But people have made a row to buy the ticket around 5 or 6 o’clock already.

And one person can buy one ticket !

Good luck !

And you can look many sumo wrestlers around Kokugi Kan or JR Ryogoku station in the tournament period.

Thank you for reading until the end.
