What you can expect

Experience Japan’s national sport in its most iconic setting – at the foot of the magnificent Mount Fuji.

The event takes place on an elevated outdoor stage by the shore of Lake Yamanaka. This is the only place in Japan where you can watch authentic sumo rituals and thrilling matches with an unobstructed view of the country’s most sacred mountain.

Professional sumo wrestlers perform traditional pre‑match ceremonies, followed by exciting bouts that showcase the power, strategy, and spirit of sumo. Live English commentary explains the history and symbolism behind each ritual, making the experience accessible and engaging for all visitors.

A select number of guests will be invited to step into the sacred sumo ring (dohyō) and take part in a sumo challenge – a rare opportunity to safely test your strength against a real sumo wrestler in an interactive experience.

Shuttle Bus Option – Round‑trip transfers to and from the venue are also available. You can add this option when booking.

Daily Show Times: 11:30 / 14:00 / 16:30
Duration: Approximately 50 minutes

VIP Ticket Upgrade – Guarantees front‑row seats, priority access to the sumo challenge, and an exclusive commemorative gift.

The show goes on in all weather conditions. In case of rain, the performance will be moved to our indoor venue on the third floor – the show never stops.
