Faqs

What is the difference between the “Full Concert” and “Talk & Song” formats?

The Full Concert is a standard musical performance focusing on a complete setlist of songs with a full band or orchestral backing. In contrast, the “Talk & Song” format is a 90-minute lecture-style event consisting of 60 minutes of storytelling, a short musical set, and an interactive audience Q&A.

Are children allowed to attend these performances?

According to the official venue guidelines, preschool-aged children are generally not permitted to enter these events to ensure a quiet environment for the lecture and acoustic segments. We recommend checking specific venue policies for children older than six years before submitting your ticket request.

How does the question-and-answer corner work during the talk events?

The question corner is a planned segment where the artist addresses inquiries submitted or asked by the audience members in attendance. While not every person is guaranteed a turn, it provides a rare opportunity for fans to hear the artist’s spontaneous thoughts on music and life.

Do I need a Japanese phone number to use the digital ticket apps?

Many Japanese ticketing platforms require a verified local phone number for the initial setup of their “Smart Ticket” applications. Our concierge service assists you with these registration hurdles or helps coordinate physical ticket pickup at convenience stores when digital options are not feasible for travelers.

Can I change my seat selection after the booking is confirmed?

In the Japanese ticketing system, seats are typically assigned at the time of purchase or through a lottery process, and changes are generally not permitted by the organizers. We will always aim to secure the best possible seats within your requested category at the time of your application.
