Faqs

How early should I submit my ticket request through the contact form?

It is highly recommended to submit your request as soon as your travel dates are confirmed. Popular performances in Japan often sell out within minutes of public release, so early inquiries give us the best chance to navigate the local ticketing systems for you.

What happens if the specific seats I want are no longer available on the official platform?

If your preferred seat category is sold out officially, our team will look into trusted and verified secondary resale marketplaces in Japan. We will always communicate the options with you beforehand to ensure you get the best alternative seating available.

Can I utilize this service if the event requires a smartphone app for entry?

Yes, our concierge service is specifically designed to handle complex “Smart Ticket” requirements. We assist you with the necessary mobile applications and navigate any local phone number authentication hurdles so you can enter the venue smoothly.

What methods can I use to pay for my tickets through your service?

We offer flexible payment coordination to accommodate international travelers. You can conveniently complete your transaction using major international credit cards, or choose local Japanese options such as convenience store payments and ATM transfers.

Is my ticket guaranteed once I submit the initial request form?

Submission of the form is a request and does not guarantee immediate procurement. Our bilingual team must first check real-time availability on official platforms, after which we will work diligently to secure and confirm your tickets.
