Here, you’ll enjoy an unforgettable interactive show — entirely in English — with former professionals, while eating the famous chanko nabe stew, the source of their power! Book your seats for this very special performance on the east side of Tokyo for the rare chance to try your luck and strength against a real sumo wrestler.
