One ticket buys unlimited samples of bluefin tuna, amberjack, sea urchin, scallops and caviar from more than 60 exhibitors, plus A5 wagyu, matcha and yuzu. The centrepiece is a live cutting show where chefs break down a bluefin of more than 400 pounds, and this year it moves to a bigger venue on the pier. If sushi is your thing, this is the one day to eat your way through the whole category.
What to expect
You enter a pier hall lined with exhibitor booths handing out sushi, seafood, wagyu, drinks and desserts, then gather for scheduled tuna-cutting demos. Full-day passes cover the whole day; half-day passes start mid-afternoon.
