This year’s Nogata Mochikichi Basho will take place in Nogata City, giving people in Kyushu a great opportunity to watch live sumo. The Nihon Sumo Kyokai (Japanese Sumo Association) tournament will be held in cooperation with rice cracker manufacturers Mochikichi. Back for a fourth consecutive year, this is the eighth time the tournament has been staged since Mochikichi started promoting the event in 1991. Tickets are due to go on sale in mid-September.
