Hello everyone! If you are planning a trip to Sapporo, Hokkaido, and looking for a unique activity beyond just skiing or soaking in an onsen, today Rin would like to introduce the latest hotspot that just opened in August 2025: "Sapporo Sumo Beya Goraku", Hokkaido's first sumo restaurant and show.
Watch a Spectacular Sumo Show and Try Wrestling Yourself
Here, you'll be thrilled by traditional sumo demonstrations performed by former professional sumo wrestlers. The atmosphere is intimate and exciting. What makes it extra special is that you can also try wrestling yourself upon request—a truly rare experience!
Enjoy Hokkaido Delicacies and Authentic "Chanko Nabe"
After enjoying the show, when hunger strikes, you don't need to go far. The venue serves plenty of Hokkaido's famous tasty dishes, especially the sumo wrestlers' favorite: "Chanko Nabe" (sumo hot pot). It is a hearty, healthy dish full of wholesome ingredients in a savory broth, perfect for keeping you warm during the chilly Hokkaido weather.
Open Daily (3 Shows a Day)
The venue presents shows daily, divided into 3 rounds per day. You can choose to visit anytime from noon through the evening at your convenience.
Rin's Impressions
Hokkaido offers much more than just snow, skiing, or hot springs. Getting to experience Japan's national art and sport of "Sumo" while savoring a steaming hot pot in the heart of Sapporo is another highlight that Rin recommends everyone experience firsthand.
