SANGA CORE Official Shop to Open

In an exciting development for football fans and the local community, Kyoto Sanga F.C. has announced the grand opening of its official shop, SANGA CORE, set to take place on November 8, 2025. Located right in front of JR Kameoka Station, this new hub is poised to become a cornerstone for both Sanga supporters and the local populace.

A Concept Rooted in Community

SANGA CORE is designed to embody the essence of Kameoka and Kyoto Sanga F.C. The name itself reflects the vision of establishing a central point where the passion for the team radiates into Kameoka, Kyoto, and even globally. The shop aims not only to serve as a retail space but also as a community gathering spot, fostering unity among fans and residents alike.

Prime Location Near JR Kameoka Station

Conveniently situated just a minute's walk from JR Kameoka Station and only about six minutes from the home stadium, Sangastadium by KYOCERA, SANGA CORE's location underscores its accessibility. The three-story building will feature a stunning design element in the form of a large mural of Raphael, one of the team's star players, visible from both the train and the stadium area, making it a prominent landmark.

Expanding the SANGA Experience

With the motto, "Making every day more SANGA," SANGA LIFE LAB., the entity behind SANGA CORE, is committed to enhancing daily life through the Sanga spirit. As SANGA CORE opens its doors, it plans to provide rich experiences that deeply integrate Sanga into the daily lives of locals and visitors alike.

Initially, SANGA CORE will feature an array of original merchandise and gradually expand its services. The aim is to move beyond a typical goods shop by offering diverse experiences and content that resonate with both local residents and loyal supporters.

Exciting Upcoming Events

As the opening day approaches, there are significant events lined up. A pre-opening event is scheduled for October 25, 2025, coinciding with a match between Kyoto Sanga F.C. and Kashima Antlers. Selected supporters will have the chance to experience the excitement firsthand before the grand opening.

On November 8, at 10:00 AM, SANGA CORE will officially open its doors. Fans can look forward to exclusive merchandise commemorating the opening, including unique items like a Raphael performance acrylic stand and a keychain, both limited to SANGA CORE.
