How TIXVOY worksSumo seating guide
Sumo seating is different from a concert layout. Read distance from the dohyo first, then seat type, then direction: front, opposite front, east or west. This guide is based on public seat information from the Japan Sumo Association and Ticket Oosumo.
Closest to the dohyo and often called sunakaburi. The official guide describes it as one person sitting on one cushion around the ring.
The Tokyo tournament guide says tamari seats are for ages 16 and over and include safety restrictions. Check organizer and listing rules before buying.
First-floor box-style seating. The official Tokyo guide describes one masu as about 1.3 meters square, surrounded by metal pipes and fitted with cushions. S/A/B/C usually reflect row distance from the dohyo.
Listings may say 1-person, 2-person or 4-person masu. Confirm whether the listing sells the whole box or only part of the capacity.
Second-floor arena-style seating. The official Tokyo guide places chair S/A/B/C/D in different row ranges.
A good choice for first-time visitors, comfort, and clearer budget control. Listings often combine SS/S/A/B/C/D with front, opposite-front, east or west.
Some listings may mention lounge chair seats, pair seats, box chair seats or table chair seats.
These depend on the venue, session or ticket notes. Follow the listing text and organizer rules.
Accessible seating. The official guide says wheelchair users should purchase dedicated wheelchair seats, not watch from masu seats while staying in a wheelchair.
Confirm ticket type, companion rules, entrance route and delivery method before buying.
The official guide describes front-side seats as the same direction as the TV broadcast view.
The opposite-front side faces the reverse direction from the TV view, where you see the gyoji from behind.
East and west seats sit behind the east-side or west-side wrestlers. Listings may use 東, 西 or block names.
