Sapporo Dome Tour & Observation Platform

posted on 10月 31, 2014

Sapporo Dome Tour is available for visitors to see some facilities such as a locker room, a cafeterior, a meeting room and a bullpen which players use. Tour staffs shows you them and it takes about 50 minutes. When you visit to Sapporo Dome and there is no baseball game and football game, why don’t you get there? No reservation if you are not a group visitor. You go to Information center on the 1st floor at North Gate #3. You have to get a ticket before the tour starting.

First of all, you are going to see stadium inside. If you are lucky, you might see the huge ground of football field is moving for preparing a next game. As football game, huge natural grass ground, 120m height x 85m width and 8,500tons weight, is slid into the inner field from outside by hovering 7.5cm up from the ground. It moves 4 meters per minute. While there is no football game, the natural grass field is outside of the dome in order to be exposed to the sun.

Due to preparing for next football game of Consadole, we can’t look at the main field as standing on there. The main field is usually opened to visitors. After main stand, down to B2F for watching a locker room and a bullpen.
