Hanshin Koshien Stadium Opens Reservations on November 11 for Group "Kyuen Plan" Stadium Tour and Lounge Party

Hanshin Koshien Stadium and the Koshien Historical Museum (甲子園歴史館) will begin taking reservations on November 11 (Wednesday) for the "Hanshin Koshien Stadium Kyuen Plan" (阪神甲子園球場 球“宴”プラン), covering a total of 13 days in January and February 2027. The plan combines a stadium tour that lets visitors see the Koshien Historical Museum and behind the scenes inside Hanshin Koshien Stadium with food and drinks in the stadium's Premium Lounge, an area not normally open to visitors. Since 2011, many groups have used it for gatherings such as New Year parties and class reunions.

Three plans are available: the Basic Plan (基本プラン), which consists of the stadium tour and food and drinks; the Mankitsu Plan (満喫プラン), which upgrades the meal and adds a visit to the first-base-side bench (planned) and a chance to touch Koshien soil to the tour; and the Baseball Mankitsu Plan (野球満喫プラン), which includes private use of the virtual batting center "BE-STADIUM KOSHIEN," where visitors can feel as if they are playing baseball at Koshien. Options popular with groups such as alumni associations are also offered, including "Welcome Vision" (ウェルカムビジョン), the "School Song Plan" (校歌斉唱プラン), and private use of BE-STADIUM KOSHIEN.
