Shin-Nagata Ekimae Pro Wrestling 2026

Why You Should Visit

A wrestling ring pops up in the plaza in front of JR Shin-Nagata Station for an afternoon of real matches by Kobe-based promotion DRAGONGATE, free to watch. Alongside two bouts, the program includes a meet-the-wrestlers session and a high-school dance stage. No reservation is needed, so passers-by, first-time wrestling viewers and families can simply drop in. First held in November 2025, this is the second edition.
