“Over four basketball courts large.” That’s how vast the main arena of the Musashino Forest Sport Plaza is. Right here before us stands this impressive multi-sport venue. It’s hard to believe that this architectural marvel, completed in 2017, was the first new venue ready for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. The Musashino Forest Sport Plaza, a hub of activity, cost over $300 million and took three and a half years to build. It boasts a main arena with a seating capacity exceeding 10,000. Imagine the roar of the crowds during the badminton, modern pentathlon fencing, and wheelchair basketball events held here during the Olympics and Paralympics. But the Musashino Forest Sport Plaza isn’t just for elite athletes. It also serves the public with a swimming pool, a gym, a multi-use sports area, and two fitness studios. In October 2018, while the Ariake Coliseum underwent renovations for the 2020 Olympics tennis events, the Musashino Forest Sport Plaza stepped in to host the Japan Open Tennis Championships. This versatile venue can even transform into a concert hall or exhibition space thanks to its enormous main arena floor. The sub-arena, equally impressive, can host various sports, from badminton to futsal. It can even be converted into a martial arts dojo with movable tatami mats. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just looking for a place to work out, the Musashino Forest Sport Plaza offers something for everyone. This isn’t just a sports complex; it’s a testament to Tokyo’s commitment to sports and community.
