In a group, tour the stadium with a professional English-speaking guide, and learn about sumo culture and traditions while watching these massive warriors go head-to-head.

After meeting at the West Gate of JR Ryogoku Station at 2:15 PM, head to Ryogoku Sumo Stadium and enjoy the sumo games. Watch the ring-entering ceremony of the Makuuchi (Strong) Division and the Yokozuna (Strongest) Division at 3:40 PM and 3:55 PM respectively.
