Ryogoku Kokugikan

Reviewed By larryb802 - Pattaya, Thailand

We attended the May basho in Tokyo. This was our second time at the Kokugikan for sumo. I encourage everyone to see a Grand Sumo Tournament! There are 6 such tournaments a year in Japan: 3 in Tokyo; 1 in Nagoya; 1 in Fukuoka; 1 in Osaka. I see on this site that some people have had difficulty buying sumo tickets from overseas. Others have paid way too much for their tickets. Both times, we bought our tickets through the same website (I am not allowed to state here the name of the site – I tried!). This site charges a modest fee for purchasing the tickets for you, then a small fee for international mailing you the tickets. (You can, alternately, chose to have the tickets sent to your hotel in Japan; we haven't tried this option.) Their customer service is amazing! For example, the cost for 4 people on a weekday, Arena A seats, would be: *per seat = 9,000Yen + 1,200 Service Charge = 10,200Yen *times 4 = 40,800Yen *plus 1,590 - 2,550 Yen for shipping (depending where you live) *TOTAL for 4 people = 42,390 - 43,350Yen (=about $387US) Andrew J's review on this site states that he paid $186 AUD per seat for a 3,800Yen seat (which would likely be an Arena C seat). At the site we used, he would have paid (by my calculation) 22,600 Yen total for 4 seats = about $70 AUD per seat. The site we used was not difficult to find on the Internet, so keep trying! PLEASE SEE SUMO! But, do it at a REASONABLE PRICE!

日本でも有数なキャパシティを誇るサッカー専用スタジアムです。 最寄り駅の浦和美園駅からスタジアムまでに行く際、サッカー関連のグラフィックやアートが沢山あり、それだけでもテンションが上がります。 サッカーに興味がない人でも、スタジアムに行くだけで楽しいと思います。 This exclusive stadium has a huge capacity in Japan. The road has a many graphics and arts relation of soccer from nearest station to the stadium probably getting higher exciting. If not interested in soccer but just going to the stadium then will have a fun!

MetLife Dome

Reviewed By Raiderbankk - Penarth, United Kingdom

A couple of train stops from Nishi Tokorozawa you really must visit this dome in the baseball season. It is the home of the Seibu Lions in the Pacific Baseball League (which incidentally they won this year). The atmosphere in this dome is electric. The Japanese sports enthusiasts really take their baseball very seriously. There are plentiful for and beverage outlets and also mobile waitresses who can serve you beer or whisky highballs at your seat. Highly recommended and close to Seibu amusement park. You can get your tickets from the Seibu store near Tokorozawa station. Expect to pay Yen 2500 to 3000 9 (about $25).
