Contact Jasumo Now →This two-day sonic slam on Saturday, December 6 to Sunday, December 7, 2025, at the storied Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium (~10,000 seats) unleashes a ~9-hour daily marathon: doors at 09:00, preliminaries at 10:00, finals at 17:00 (Day 1) / 16:00 (Day 2), pitting judo titans like France’s Teddy Riner (over 100kg) against Japan’s Saori Yoshida alumni and rising stars like Hifumi Abe (66kg).
Day 1 spotlights heavierweights: men -90kg/-100kg/+100kg, women -48kg/-52kg/-57kg/-63kg; Day 2 lighter: men -60kg/-66kg/-73kg/-81kg, women -70kg/-78kg/+78kg. With a revamped seating map (arena EX, box seats with perks like signed goods/meet-and-greets), it’s a festival of uchi-mata throws and ne-waza pins amid flashing lights and roaring crowds.
Hailed on X as “Tokyo’s judo jihad” and “ippon inferno,” this AJJF flagship—sponsored by Park24—features no-nuisance photography (smartphones only in spectator areas) and media captures for JAAF highlights. Tickets from ¥1,000 (side back unreserved) to ¥50,000 (Arena EX) via Seven-Eleven first-come (until Nov 14, 2025, 23:59 JST) and general from November 15, 2025, 10:00 JST on Pia.
The Sendagaya icon ensures seismic slaps. Secure via [email protected]—this golden slam is primed for swift sellouts.
