Reiwa 8 Autumn Tour: Grand Sumo Kahoku Basho

The 'Grand Sumo Autumn Tour Kahoku Basho' will be held on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, at the Toriyasaimiso BLUECATS ARENA. In the regional tour, where you can interact closely with sumo wrestlers, there are various events that both sumo beginners and hardcore fans can enjoy. In addition to the regular matches, must-see performances that cannot be seen in the main tournaments include the 'Hair-styling Demonstration' where you can see the popular wrestlers' 'Oicho' (topknot) being tied. There are also plenty of scenes that invite laughter, such as 'Shokkiri', which comically demonstrates illegal moves and rare winning techniques. The opportunity for interaction unique to the tour, such as autograph sessions with popular wrestlers and chances to take photos with them, is also one of its charms.
