Disclaimer

Jasumo provides a specialized facilitation service for foreign tourists and non-Japanese residents in Japan, assisting with ticket acquisition for cultural events, including Kaientai Talk & Live 2025, through authorized platforms like Ninohe Civic Cultural Center. We are not a ticket reseller and do not sell tickets directly. Our role is to guide international customers through the official booking process, addressing challenges such as:

• Language Barriers: Japan’s ticketing systems are primarily in Japanese, posing challenges for non-Japanese speakers. Jasumo offers bilingual support to ensure a seamless booking experience.
• Access to Local Platforms: Many ticketing platforms require local knowledge, Japanese phone numbers, or specific payment methods. Jasumo assists with navigating these systems and provides international payment options where available.
• High Demand and Limited Availability: With limited seating (~500–700) and Kaientai’s regional popularity, securing tickets is competitive. Jasumo helps manage sales deadlines and wheelchair seating requests to maximize your chances.

Due to high demand and limited seating, securing tickets is not guaranteed. Refunds will only be issued in the event of performance cancellation. We strongly recommend booking by October 1, 2025, to access official prices (¥5,500) and avoid inflated resale prices (e.g., ¥7,000).
