Inside baseball pitch
Opened in 2001 and with seating for up to 54,000 people, Sapporo Dome is the biggest stadium in Hokkaido. It is a unique stadium that is used primarily for baseball games and football matches. It is also used for large concerts for big name bands on the occasions they tour Sapporo. This futuristic stadium is unique in its design which switches between two entirely different surfaces, baseball games are played on an underlying artificial turf field, while football games are held on a grass pitch that slides into and out of the stadium as needed.
