There's still time! Tickets for the hugely popular September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament
Since COVID-19 subsided in 2023, sumo's popularity has been steadily recovering. As a result, tickets are selling very quickly, and all tickets for this series were sold out shortly after they went on general sale. Because of this situation, tourists may find themselves unable to see sumo even if they come to Japan because they don't have tickets.
Therefore, "Japan Sports Ticket" has tickets in stock and offers them exclusively to service users. Why not check to see if there are any tickets that fit your schedule?
After COVID, the number of foreign tourists visiting Japan has increased very much. Also it became more common to see them at sports stadiums. What we heard from them is the difficulty of purchasing tickets. Match information, ticket information, how to buy, procedures for getting tickets (language, payment, Japanese address and phone number required)...etc People often gave up halfway through because of the difficulty of the process. "Japan Sports Ticket" supports the tourists to visit the Japanese local sports games, hope the tourist enjoy a unique and unforgettable Japan trip!!
