Every spring, Osaka hosts the professional sumo tournaments, bringing together top-notch wrestlers from stables around Japan. Sumo itself originated from the Shinto religion and the tournaments are full of ritual. The highlight of the day takes place around 2-4pm when the top-ranked wrestlers participate in the ring-entering ceremony. Purchase tickets for the tournaments online or show up early to the venue’s gate at 8am to purchase the limited number of unreserved seats available each morning. Note that the seats closer to the ring are box seats that require sitting on the floor. Chair-type seating is available for the 2nd floor.
