PIA Corporation has been named as the official commercial hospitality provider for this year’s World Athletics Championships which are set to take place in Tokyo from September 13 to 21.

The Japanese company is also the general ticketing provider for the event and has made box and lounge hospitality options available.

Box hospitality seats guests on the terrace of the National Stadium, which has a capacity of 68,000 for athletics events. The terrace is connected to a private room where food and drink can be enjoyed.

The lounge hospitality option is located close to the finish line and features guest speakers and a dedicated bar.

“Embracing the spirit of ‘omotenashi’ (a sincere and transparent form of hospitality), PIA has been promoting the culture of hospitality in Japan and has created hospitality packages for many events in recent years, including those held at the National Stadium, the venue for the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 25,” said executive director in charge of the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 25 at PIA Corporation, Toshihiro Kawabata.

“Our mission is to take hospitality in Japan to the next level, achieve sustainable development of the athletics community and enrich people’s lives through athletics.”

In addition to the hospitality options, fans have the option to upgrade their general admission ticket to gain access to limited edition commemorative items from the championships.
