Sapporo Dome: soccer rain or shine
Sapporo Dome is the home of Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo in the J1 League. The fully enclosed dome means you can watch soccer comfortably even in Hokkaido's harsh winters. It holds about 41,000 spectators and was built for the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
Getting there
Take the Toho subway line to Fukuzumi Station, then walk about 10 minutes. From Sapporo Station, the total journey takes about 20 minutes. Signage on match days makes navigation easy.
What to eat
Sapporo Dome serves Hokkaido specialties: Genghis Khan (grilled lamb), soup curry, Sapporo miso ramen, and zangi (Hokkaido-style fried chicken). After the game, head to Susukino for more food and nightlife.
