Kitahiroshima

Within Hokkaido Prefecture’s cities, Kitahiroshima is distinguished by Hokkaido Ballpark F Village, the sports-and-entertainment district centred on ES CON Field Hokkaido. Opened in 2023, its retractable-roof ballpark is home to the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters and has made the city a major destination for baseball fans. Kitahiroshima stands on the eastern side of the Ishikari Plain, southeast of Sapporo, where urban development meets Hokkaido’s broad agricultural lowlands. Its name recalls Hiroshima Village, founded in 1884 by settlers from Hiroshima Prefecture; the municipality became a city in 1996.
