Sapporo Supper Club by Mr Miyagi

Melbourne has plenty of Japanese dining experiences that feel achingly close to the real deal. But in September, Japan’s oldest beer company, Sapporo, will bring an experience to the city unlike anything we’ve seen before. For one night only, the Sapporo Supper Club will take over Kensington’s Younghusband precinct – and the beer giant is pulling out all the stops for the inaugural event.

Sapporo is flying renowned sumo wrestlers Hishofuji Hiroki (“the heaviest sumo on earth”) and Ichinojō Takashi to Melbourne especially for the event, where they’ll go head-to-head in a rare exhibition performance demonstrating the art, tradition and spirit of sumo.

Guests can watch the action around a dojo-style ring and hear from the two wrestlers as they share fascinating insights into life inside and outside the ring at a intimate Q&A. All this as you dine on a multi-course feast by Windsor izakaya Mr Miyagi – paired with Sapporo, Sapporo Black and Yebisu Premium Beer.

Tickets cost $199 per person – or if you’re lucky, you and a mate can attend for free. We’re giving away two tickets to the Sapporo Supper Club by Mr Miyagi – enter here.
