Hello,

I will be in Tokyo October 9-11 with my family and we would like to go to the sumo event in Yokohama.

I would be very grateful if you have informatioin about tickets, including the normal range of prices, whether standing room tickets are available, and whether tickets are likely to be available on the day of the exhibition.

Thank you so much!

Thank you for the links. It appears that you need a Japanese address in order to buy the tickets? Is there a way around this.

Online ticket shops require a Japanese physical address as you purchase.

"Ticket Port Yokohama" may sell the Sumo ticket, which is not required to write a Japanese physical address as you purchase. But, the shop may not sell the ticket. This is uncertain until you visit or phone directly to the shop(I think they do but not 100% guaranteed).
"Ticket Port Yokohama"
2-16-B1|430, Nishi-ku, Takashima, Yokohama City(inside "Yokohama Porta")
10:00-20:00(the shop opens until 21:00. All tickets are sold between 10:00-20:00)

Re: Sumo tickets for Yokohama in October 2014/10/9 01:37
Hello team,
I actually have tickets to this event, but no where on the tickets or flyers does it have the address for the venue. The only address that I could dig up was:

4 chome 1-1-8 chojamachi, yokohama naka ward, kanagawa 231-0033

Putting this into Google maps, shows a fairly industrial area which doesn't look like it could hold such event.

Any help is appreciated.
