    A magical, amazing place of wrestling history. A bucket list place to go to as a wrestling fan. I got to go see a New Japan Pro Wrestling show there. The orange seats are comfortable and have a nice cup holder on the back of the chair infront of you. The atmosphere of the crowd is awesome. It is well worth a visit if you're in town for a wrestling show, no matter which promotion is running.

    If you’re an Japanese wrestling fan you already know about this place. A must visit for any wrestling fan in Tokyo. Go see any show here that’s on while you’re in Tokyo.

    Korakuen is home to many MMA, Kickboxing, Boxing and Wrestling events. Besides the well priced ringside seats, you have a great view of the action from almost every seat in the house. Also the staircase is filled with graffiti and tags from fans all over the world

    Historical place to watch pro wrestling and MMA. It is some place you've seen a million times if you are a fan of fighting.

    Inside Tokyo dome city ... Beside Tokyo dome ... Awesome surroundings... Been here for an NJPW event .. not that big... May be a capacity of around 2000... Very easily accessible by train as it is just beside suidobashi station

    It's a smaller venue, but very good view of the event. Can be a bit crowded, when entering and exiting. Keep in mind, you have to take an elevator to get there!

    The legendary Korakuen Hall! Great venue to see some great wrasslin, if that’s your thing. Getting tickets to an NJPW show can be a pain for visitors. If you’re not able to get tickets through an online service (ie paying someone in Japan to purchase the tickets directly from a Loppi machine and sending them to you) or if you don’t know how to use the Loppi machines, they put standing room tickets on sale the day of the show at the box office. We got there an hour or so before the show and snagged some tickets, though I think we may have been lucky to get tickets. Availability may depend on the show. Any way, it’s a small venue, so there’s not a bad spot in the place. It’s also Korakuen Hall, so you’ll be happy to just be there if you’re wrestling nerd like me.

    Legendary venue for MMA, Boxing, Kickboxing and Pro Wrestling. If you are fan of any of those, you must visit this place at least once.

    Finally got to see a NJPW event here. Small place so you won't have a bad seat anywhere. The south side has padded seats, but most of the seats on the other sides are wood.

    A unique place to watch various events from wrestling to low level sumo. While the seating and viewing angles are excellent. The building needs a remodel It's clearly aging. It's dated yellow walls and filthy floors, along with the single bathroom make this place less than pleasant. The stair case, used as an exit, has been marked with graffiti and looks tasteless. Paint it over.

    I went back and forth on if to give this place 4 or 5 stars. The customer support is fantastic, and a very patient person helped me find my section after I just couldn't figure it out. That some of the seating charts and the hallways being a bit loopy are my main critiques, but I don't think that's enough to really hold against the venue. I will advise against special seating as it usually isn't staggered by elevation, so standing room seats are usually better as you can definitely see what's happening. Just wear comfy shoes if you don't have regular stadium seating and go for standing room balcony.

    I’ve recently become a fan of New Japan Puroresu. Whenever they come to the San Francisco Bay Area I try to attend their shows (Battle of the Valley, G1 Special, New Japan Showdown, etc). I’ve always heard of Korakuen Hall and always wanted to attend a show. I was my first time in Japan last October. To my surprise NJPW was holding a Battle Autumn 22 event. After a bit of detective work I purchased my tickets from a booth at Lawson’s the day before. A breathed a huge sigh of relief that I was able to get them. I got to Korakuen Hall an hour early, there was already a line by the main entrance. I was a little nervous at first but the staff pointed us in the right direction. My tickets was checked and we were allowed into the merchandise area. After that we were given time to find our seats. I had so much fun finally attending a NJPW show at Korakuen Hall. All of the matches were fun and all of the performers gave it their all. I started to see the little differences in crowd participation between WWE and NJPW shows. It was quite interesting and I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in Japan. I’d love to attend a Wrestle Kingdom in the future.

    Not only it made the history of the wrestling, it's still an excellent venue to enjoy it.
