About the city
Tsu, the capital of Mie Prefecture, located along the coast of Ise Bay, is a calm and practical Japanese destination for visitors coming for sports events, concerts and larger gatherings. The city does not have the intense pace of major metropolises, but that is exactly why it offers a pleasant balance between event facilities, good transport connections and a relaxed stay. Thanks to venues and convention spaces such as Saorina, Messe Wing Mie and the surrounding sports facilities, Tsu is a suitable choice for audiences who want easy arrival, simple movement around the city and enough things to do before or after an event.
Transport connectivity is one of the city's main advantages. The key hub is Tsu Station, where the JR Kisei Main Line, Kintetsu Nagoya Line and Ise Railway Ise Line meet, while Tsu-Shinmachi Station is also important for certain city locations. Local movement relies on Mie Kotsu buses and city routes such as the Gurutto Tsu Bus, making it easier to reach venues, hotels and the city center. For travelers arriving by air, Chubu Centrair International Airport is especially useful, connected with Tsu Nagisamachi port by the Tsu Airport Line high-speed boat, after which the journey toward the center and event locations can continue by local transport or taxi.
Tsu is also a good city for a short sightseeing addition to the trip. Before or after a concert, it is worth walking to the Tsu Castle Ruins and Oshiro Park, visiting the area around the old city center or spending time along the coast of Ise Bay. Culture lovers can include the Mie Prefectural Art Museum, while a walk through the quieter city districts gives a good sense of the everyday rhythm of this part of Japan. Because of its combination of history, sea views, cultural content and practical infrastructure, Tsu offers more than just arrival for an event.
