About this venue
Hiroshima Sun Plaza Hall is a multi-purpose arena in the western part of Hiroshima, known for its compact, easy-to-navigate layout and its role as a venue for concerts, indoor sports, cultural programs, and larger gatherings. With capacity for more than 6,000 visitors, the hall offers a strong balance between scale and proximity to the stage or court, making it well suited to events where atmosphere and visibility matter as much as production.
The interior is designed for different event formats, from live music to arena sports, with acoustics and seating arrangements that support a clear view and sound experience from most sections. Visitors value the functional entrances, spacious shared areas, on-site amenities, and practical connection with the wider complex, including hotel facilities, restaurants, and additional rooms for meetings or receptions.
The venue is located at 3 Chome-1-1 Shoko Center, Nishi Ward, Hiroshima, Japan. The entrance is easy to reach on foot from Shin-Inokuchi Station and Shoko Center-iriguchi Station, while visitors arriving by car can use parking available within the complex.

About the city: Hiroshima
Hiroshima, a city on the Seto Inland Sea, blends strong urban energy with a well-known culture of hospitality, which is why it is increasingly chosen for concerts, sporting fixtures, and major events. What makes it special is that the experience does not end at the arena doors: after the show, it is easy to shift into walks, dinners, and exploring neighborhoods that stay lively late into the evening. Visitors appreciate the clear organization, a sense of safety, and a wide range of options, from modern shopping areas to quiet parks, making trip planning straightforward even if you are coming in for a single night.
Getting in and moving around is built on a reliable public-transport network: the streetcars of Hiroshima Electric Railway (Hiroden) and the fast urban Astram Line, plus connections to JR rail services that make arrivals from the wider region easy. The main hub is Hiroshima Station, where you can quickly catch lines toward key parts of the city and event venues, while taxi and bus routes further reduce transfers. If you arrive by air, Hiroshima Airport (HIJ) offers clear ground links into the city, so the transit to your accommodation and arenas feels logical and low-stress, whether you travel solo or with a larger group.
If you have time before or after an event, Hiroshima offers sights that naturally fit your itinerary: Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome provide powerful context, while walks along the Motoyasu River and through central streets lead to squares, arcades, and restaurants. For a calmer pace, there are Shukkeien Garden and Hiroshima Castle, and if you want a short outing, ferry links to Miyajima bring a completely different atmosphere and sweeping views. Taken together, it makes Hiroshima a destination where you buy tickets for the event, and remember the city for the complete experience.
