On June 13 and 14, 2026, the Accor Arena will host an exceptional event produced by David Rothschild and AEG presents: the Paris Sumo Tournament.

More than 30 years after their last appearance in France, in this very same arena, the legendary sumo wrestlers return to offer spectacular fights, steeped in tradition and emotion. These icons of Japanese culture are preparing to write a new chapter in the cultural and sporting history that unites Paris and Tokyo... and it's all happening here, at the Accor Arena.  

For two days, the Arena transforms into a window onto the Japanese art of living. Much more than a sporting spectacle, it's a unique cultural immersion that awaits you: a journey where every fight tells a story, and every gesture embodies the soul of Japan!
