Suggested Activity
Sumo Morning Practice Tour at Stable in Tokyo
Try this insider’s experience at a sumo wrestler morning practice session. Enjoy exclusive access to a sumo stable, watching as these massive athletes put themselves through their daily training regimen and go head-to-head.
When the drums need a break, watch a fashion show exhibiting traditional dress and even charity auctions of memorabilia and art. Not to worry if you don’t win, as the stalls around the venue will have plenty of African arts and crafts that make the perfect memento. And if you’re peckish in between, stop at the food court for African classics like jollof rice or chicken yassa.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
