Visiting Hiroshima for Baseball
An away trip to MAZDA Stadium in Hiroshima is one of Japan's best sports travel experiences. Combine world-class baseball with Hiroshima's incredible sightseeing and food.
Getting There
Hiroshima is about 4 hours from Tokyo by bullet train, or 1.5 hours from Osaka. The stadium is a 10-minute walk from JR Hiroshima Station — one of the most accessible ballparks in Japan.
Visitor Seating
Visitor sections are in the outfield. Purchase through your team's visitor ticket allocation. Carp fans are passionate but the atmosphere is friendly, even for visiting supporters.
Hiroshima Food
Don't miss Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki — layered rather than mixed, with noodles inside. The Okonomimura building near the station has multiple floors of okonomiyaki restaurants. Oysters are another local specialty.
