Gamba Osaka, who is participating in the top league of the J1 league, is a newly built football dedicated "Municipal Suita Football Stadium"As the home stadium. Because there are only a few teams that are home to the football stadium among the teams fighting in the J League, many are rugby stadiums and dual stadiums with the track and field stadium, "As for the latest football stadium it is a wonderful landscape Many people are looking forward to watching football at the same stadium. So, as a point of watching the game at the Municipal Suita Football Stadium, I tried summarizing the surrounding information such as the route to the stadium and what kind of food can be eaten inside the stadium.

◆ How to get to the stadium
Municipal Suita Football Stadium where home games of Gamba Osaka are held opened grand on November 19 th (Thursday) 2015EXPOCITY (Expo City)It is right next to.


There are three access methods to the stadium, mainly train, automobile, and bus, but officially recommends the use of public institutions as road congestion is expected before and after the match. Points when accessing the stadium by each means are as follows.

· Route on foot from "Exposure Memorial Park Station" nearest station
When accessing the stadium by train, it is necessary to go from the Expo Memorial Park Station which is the nearest station to the stadium on foot.

The nearest station is "Osaka Monorail" Expo Memorial Park Station ".


A special train is added on the day of the match, and additional operation information will be posted on each station of the Osaka monorail in this way.



Also, the flags of players at Gamba Osaka are on the premises of Expo Memorial Park Station.


The route from here to the city Suita Football Stadium on foot will be as follows. First go out the station's ticket gate and proceed to the left and you will see Expo City, so move toward that.


Because there is a blue sign and a white staircase in front of the signboard of Expo City ......


I will climb this staircase to go to the city Suita Football Stadium.


I found a municipal Suita Football Stadium over the fence where I climbed the stairs.


If you go further, you will arrive at the best shooting spot where you can see the entire stadium from the elevated.


Here you can see the whole from almost the front of the stadium.


After the stairs are over, I will proceed to the road as it is. Basically it is almost a single road from the staircase to the stadium, and from the middle we will walk aiming at the stadium which is visible in front of the eyes, so it will almost certainly not get lost in the way. Besides, as for 7 stairs and sidewalks in both stairs and sidewalks, there is enough space to move in a row, so there was no such thing as "getting crammed and moving to the stadium".


As I walked on the sidewalk, I arrived from the west side of the stadium. It is the south parking lot spreading in front of the stadium, one of the places where you can park your car when coming by car to the stadium.


Move so as to detour around this south parking lot.


It is a place where you want to cut through the southern parking lot, but since there is only one exit from the south parking lot, you can arrive at the stadium as soon as you walk a passage that surrounds the parking lot gently.


Spread the passage surrounding the south parking lot.


Finally arrived at gate 2 on the southwestern side of the city Suita Football Stadium. It is about 15 minutes on foot.


Route from Expo Memorial Park Station on the map, it feels like route 1 of the following image. Route 2 is recommended for wheelchair guests, and this route ......


Just go south from the east exit of Osaka monorail park OK. If you leave the station there are no stairs, so you can say it is a friendly route for people with wheelchairs.


We will also arrive at the gate 1 side of the stadium.


· In the case of a car
If you visit Gamba Osaka's home game by car, you will be using a parking lot around the stadium, but in order to use the parking lot you need to purchase a parking ticket in advance. Parking ticketOfficial ticket site of Gamba OsakaOrTicket PiaIt is possible to purchase from the same date as the general sale date of game tickets.

On weekdays the parking ticket is 1115 yen (parking charge 1000 yen + sales commission 115 yen), Saturdays and Sundays congratulation is 1665 yen (parking charge 1500 yen + sales commission 165 yen), separately for ticket handling 108 yen per ticket. If you have a handicapped person's notebook, you can only use the south parking lot, but you can purchase a parking ticket with 150 yen (parking fee 0 yen + sales fee 150 yen) in common for weekdays / Saturdays and Sundays congratulations. However, as it is written on the official website, "It is expected that it will take 2 to 3 hours for the gift date to be issued on parking," road congestion is predicted, so the use of public transportation is recommended It is being done.

There are three parking lots around the stadium: the central parking lot, the south parking lot, and the east parking lot.


Central parking lot is located in front of the Expo Memorial Park Station.


The southern parking lot is right next to the stadium. Please note that the entrance to the south parking lot is different from the normal time on the day of the match.


And there is the east parking lot between the Expo Commemoration stadium, the former home stadium of Gamba Osaka, and the east exit station of the Osaka monorail.


The nearest IC is Suita IC or China Suita IC.

· For bus
In the case of buses, Kintetsu Bus (departing from the West Exit 04) will be operated from JR Ibaraki Station from 1 to 2 hours before kick-off. Since it will be a bus to the Expo Commemoration stadium, from there you need to move to the city Suita Football Stadium on foot. The fee for the bus is 110 yen for adults 220 yen. In addition, it is possible to move to the south exit of Memorial Park, which is the bus stop closest to the stadium, by bus route (Hankyu Bus / Kintetsu bus) which can be taken from JR Ibaraki Station 's West Exit 04.


Around the stadium
Around the Suita football stadium on the day of the game is like this.

There is a big space on the west side of the stadium, between Gate 1 and Gate 2.


There is a general information office here. There is a window for ticket exchange and disabled discount.


There was already a waiting queue already about 4 hours before the start of the match.


This row is a row of people entering the stadium from Gate 1.


The following plate is placed in front of the big staircase leading to each gate, and it is written in which area the audience will enter from which gate. Gate 1 has also become the entrance gate to the "home free seat" where the most Gamba Osaka supporters gather, so the most people were lined up. The entrance from gate 1 is exciting sheet · category 1 · category 3 · category 4 · category 4 table sheet · category 4 front view · home · those who have free seat matches tickets.


When going to the north side of the stadium through the large staircase side of gate 1 ......


Discover the day ticket office on the lower stairs (north side).


The ticket window was about 3 hours 30 minutes before the game started.


And on the north side of the stadium is the only food shop outside the stadium.


From Takoyaki · Okonomiyaki · Yakisoba, Yakitori, Buffalo Wing, Penglai noodles, Ramen are available in various menus.


A small okonomiyaki "Eat this Minnie" that can be eaten with one hand ... ...


There are plenty of menus ranging from rice balls, rice balls, and irrigation to easy-to-eat items.


Here I tried purchasing the "Osaka Trio (500 yen)" which was a set of Takoyaki, Okonomiyaki and Yakisoba.


Looks like this. Okonomiyaki comes with this Minnie pig, which contains big pork with gorot and eats more than you imagined.


Gate 4 has a waiting queue for preceding entry. In the preliminary entry, about 30 minutes before the general visitor enters the stadium, it is possible to enter the stadium and secure your favorite seat, but I went to the stadium considerably earlier than the beginning of the match It is necessary to participate in the preceding entrance waiting queue lot drawing time. Although the kickoff of this day was at 19:04, the preliminary entrance waiting queue lottery time is 1 hour from 13:30 to 14:30, the preceding admission is from 15:55 to 16:25 Until. It was from 16:30, 2 hours and 30 minutes before the kickoff time for general visitors to enter the stadium.


On the gate 4 are signboards with "lottery numbers" written ... ...


This also existed under the big stairs of gate 4.



There was also reception at the GVIP room between gate 3 and gate 4.


In order to enter ahead, it was necessary to visit the stadium well before the start of the match, so we were to line up in a crying general entrance waiting queue. It was on the home free seat that I sat down on the same day, so I ran into the waiting queue of gate 1.


Supporters wearing uniforms in Gamba Osaka that you see chirahora.


Because it was a weekday game we watched the gathering of supporters was moderate even 30 minutes before entering the entrance.


As we enter the entrance time, climb the big staircase while keeping the line ......


I check the baggage check & ticket at the entrance gate and enter the stadium.


◆ In the stadium
Each area in the stadium is categorized as follows and the price of the ticket differs for each area. The ticket fee includes adult fee and elementary and middle school student fee, and excluding the wheelchair seats (adult: 2000 yen, elementary and junior high school students: 700 yen), the most inexpensive purchase excluding the home free seat, visitor free seat, family seat adults 2500 Yen, elementary and middle school students 1000 yen. The most expensive one is 15,000 yen for an exciting seat. In addition, since tickets are 500 yen lower for tickets than today's tickets, it is better to purchase early.


· Lower level of the stadium · VIP layer · View from the upper level
So when you enter the stadium, the pitch spreads with the dawn in front of you. This is when looking at the pitch from the lower seats home free seat.


Many people were shocked to shoot Pashapasha photos with smartphones and cameras while being moved by the goodness of the landscape.


The support flag with the name of the player who was not present during the stadium tour has been put around and the football stadium is doubled.


Gamba Osaka's Tsuneki Yonekura and Aki Kurata's cheering flag "Yonekura" is surreal.


The big vision showed the kickoff time of the game.


The time to be able to enter the stadium was 2 hours and 30 minutes before the kickoff, so people are sparse on the main stand or back stand ... ...



Whether the free seat behind the home side goal was also plus the fact that it was the cheapest seat, many supporters gathered and tried to secure a good seat even a little.


On the back side of the goal on the side of the home is a stairway that rises from the main aisle to the upper floor.


Looking at the pitch from the home free seat in the VIP layer is like this. Since you can see the pitch from a place considerably higher than the lower layer, the overall picture of the pitch is fairly easy to see.


Home The free seat VIP layer is connected to the outside of the stadium ... ...


There is a staircase to access the upper class if you go outside.


That's why I went to the top of the free seat.


Looking at the pitch from the front row in the upper layer. The distance to the pitch is close enough that the VIP layer and the lower layer 's home free seat can not be seen, yet the viewability of the pitch as a whole is further improved because there is still a considerable height.


Looking down at the pitch from the back seat of the top layer (the seat at the highest position), it looks like this. It is quite expensive, so you can not recommend it to people with afraid of heights.


Looking at the seat from the last row in the upper layer.



Anyway, looking at the pitch from the audience seating, the distance to the pitch is close, and you can feel the heat of the players closer during the game. Also, because the four sides are surrounded by the stand, supporters' voices are confined within the stadium, and it is also a point that cheering can be felt greatly anyway anyway. The way to watch the game is individual freedom, but once I feel the enthusiasm behind the goal on the home side of this stadium is near, I feel that I want to see the game again here I will.

· The eating and drinking establishment along the main passage of the stadium looks like this
The Municipal Suita Football Stadium has four entrances, namely Gates 1, 2, 3 and 4, but it leads from the gate to the main aisle which goes round the stadium whilst entering the stadium. There are restaurants and official goods shops in the stadium along this main aisle.


Home The free seat side is an open design which can directly access the lower level from the main aisle.


On the other hand, fencing is provided for the areas other than the home free seat as follows and it is possible to move to the seat after presenting the ticket in the ticket check zone.


Home There are the following stores in the main passage on the side of the free seat. It is a home seat where the most people are gathered, but most of the supporters are desperately supporting the fans during the game, and almost no rows were made in the restaurant.

Official goods shop of Gamba Osaka


"Yakiniku Calbi Champ" that you can eat yakiniku bento and rice bowls


Yakitori shop "chicken" in Kitasinland, Osaka and Thai government approved restaurant "Kunthep"


"BISTRO OSAKA" where you can eat fried eggs, popcorn, fried potatoes, bone-attached wiener, beef steak skewers


Many supporters made a queue during the game because the most dining outlets are lined up on the back stand side, and it was an impression that it takes quite a long time to purchase what you want.

"Ace dining" where you can eat broiled pork roses and soybeans, chicken Mayo rice and others


There is an area where you can not get in while wearing the uniform of Gamba Osaka, behind the goal of the away side.


In areas where you can not enter inside while wearing Gumba Osaka uniforms, you will find "Prosto" which is sold for fried chicken, German sausage, Lattice cut potato, draft beer etc.


This area extends to the front of gate 2.


The area surrounded by a red frame becomes an area where you can not enter while wearing Gumba Osaka uniform.


From here the shop next to the main stand side will continue. There are few restaurants in the main stand side aisle.

Yakiniku restaurant operated by a comedian talent's "Charcoal grilled meat roeThere is only a passage on the side of the main stand.


"BISTRO OSAKA" had one store in each of four areas.


There is also a goods shop on the main stand side.


This is a matrix that ......


Takoyaki specialty store "Kuruku"


In addition, a fan club booth near the gate 1.


There are 21 eating and drinking establishments on the 3rd floor main aisle of the stadium, but if you get close to kickoff in front of any store you will have a long line. If you want to purchase quickly without aligning in rows, enter the stadium with haste at the start time of the stadium entry, get the food of your choice as it is It is good to go.

· I actually tried it.
So, I tried eating as much as I could eat the menu of the restaurant inside the stadium actually.

First of all I will eat 'chicken' chicken white ramen noodles (800 yen).


This is chicken white ramen. Ramen filled with special chicken filled with rich glaze using domestic chicken, ramen with spicy miso, and half with egg flavored eggs.


There was an emblem of Gamba Osaka in the paste.


Good chicken meat is good with many chicken covered with seasonings.


Half - egg and horse - spiced meat. When melting meat miso into soup, the whole turns into spicy, so it seems good to melt it in soup when you want a change in taste.


The noodle has a high water content, and it is pleasant with a crispy texture. The soup is something that makes you feel the taste of chicken though it is easy.


Subsequently, "BISTRO OSAKA" where there were 4 stores in the stadium ......


Purchase heavy cheese of "I will give away from chicken" which is the first recommendation. I will give you 500 yen for 5 items and 800 yen for 8 items. Mushrooms are slightly cheesy and the clothes are crispy and have eating and responding.


Blue and black Gamba Osaka color dumplings were also sold at BISTRO OSAKA.


In addition, it is KunTape's authorized restaurant in Thailand ......


I will eat 'Barbeque chicken (600 yen)'. The thing with chicken thoroughly attached to Thai herbs, the surface is heavily burned heavily, but the meat quality is juicy moist. A sweet peculiar flavoring becomes a habit.


It is also a pleasure to watch a game while eating and drinking your favorite things in the stadium, so it is good to go around various stores and find your favorite menu.

A state of the inside of the stadium before and after the game start
Matchday program that anyone can get free at the stadium.


You can check the starting members and game data in the previous section and the top team members of each team.


People in suits appeared in pitch before the game started.


I was able to take a picture that clearly shows how close the distance between the pitch and the stadium is.


The back of the goal is also this distance.


When it gets dark the inside of the stadium will be lighted up and it will brighten at once. In addition, water was sprinkled on the pitch before the game.



Visitors A group of away supporters who gather in free seats.


Before kicking off, the following Gamba Osaka original program was broadcasted at the stadium vision.

Immediately before the start of the game, support by the Gamba Osaka supporter started on the back of the goal of the home side.



Voltage to the game gradually goes up.


If you want to support Gamba Osaka together with other supporters the home free seat is perfect.



Since the home free seat is almost fully occupied, it is better to visit the stadium as soon as possible if you want to pick up your favorite seat.


The seat on the back stand side is also buried quite a bit. Although the day we visited the interview was a game held on weekdays, although the number of spectators was less than at the time of the holiday, this entrance condition. The condition of the pitch as seen from the upper area of ​​the goal was quite high and it was perfect for watching games, so the upper level area of ​​the main stand and backstand seems to be better to see the whole match more carefully.


Also at the moment just before the start of the match, lighting up the inside of the stadium using "Official goods" Gamba LED Breath ". This is one of the new cheer for the introduction of the players of the night game.



The game we watched was as follows, Gamba Osaka won Omiya Ardilla with 2 to 1 victory.

In addition, after the fight, Expo Memorial Park Station is like this.
