I bet we've never discussed Sumo Wrestling anywhere on trippist. I suppose that makes sense since this is a blog about things to see and do in the Netherlands. However, Sumo is coming to Holland, so of course- we're talking about it.

On the 5th and 6th of June at the Heineken Music Hall there will be a Sumo Wrestling Tournament. The event is part of a celebration of 400 years of trade and business between the Netherlands and Japan. The featured wrestlers hail from the highest class of Sumo in Japan, appearing for the first time in the Netherlands.

Normally for the HMH I would point out how much tickets are, however this event is so special, you actually have to apply to be a part of it. Here's a link to the form you must fill out.
