The six yearly grand sumo tournaments are held at four locations.
The January, March and September meets are in Tokyo, while the March, July and November tournaments take place in Osaka, Nagoya and Fukuoka, respectively.
The venues for all six have remained the same for decades with large multi-purpose gyms used outside of Tokyo, and the Japan Sumo Association's Ryogoku Kokugikan the location for all tournaments in the capital.
