Asakusa Sumo Show with Chanko Hot Pot and Geisha Dance

Enjoy Sumo Culture in Asakusa

This cultural entertainment experience at Asakusa Sumo Stable lets visitors watch sumo demonstrations performed by former wrestlers at close range.

The venue features a sumo ring, and the program combines the sumo show with a geisha dance, chanko hot pot and other food, and commemorative photos.

What You Can Experience

Live commentary in Japanese and English introduces the history, rituals, and rules of sumo.

Former sumo wrestlers demonstrate traditional techniques and matches, with explanations of winning moves and prohibited actions.

Guests may also have an opportunity to enter the ring and take part in a sumo challenge. Participation is limited, and a lottery may be used when there are more volunteers than available places.

Food and Accessibility

Guests can enjoy chanko hot pot and other Japanese food while watching the show. Check the selected package on the booking page to confirm the food and drinks included.

The booking page states that vegetarian and vegan meals can be arranged when booked at least two days in advance.

Wheelchair-accessible seating is limited, so guests who require it should provide the relevant information when booking.

How It Differs from Stable Practice and Tournaments

This is a cultural entertainment show performed by former sumo wrestlers.
