Summer Sumo Regional Tour (Jungyo) in Shizuoka *No Grand Sumo Tournaments

August 6 (Tu) 2024- August 7 (Wed) 2024

 

Sumo is the national sport in Japan and has a long history. 

It was designated in 1909.

The competition takes place in a ring called Dohyo.

Two sumo wrestlers fight in it. The first one who steps out of the ring loses, or the first one who touches the ground with any type of his body except the sole of his feet loses.

 

This is a summer sumo regional tour (Jungyo), not one of the Grand Sumo Tournaments, so you will be able to watch sumo wrestlers practice and perform what won’t be seen at any Grand Sumo Tournaments. 

Additionally, hand-shaking events will take place, taking photos of them or with them will be available, you can get their autograph, and you might be able to have a little chat with them if lucky enough.

 Why don’t you enjoy watching it with local audiences and eating local food?
