Overview

The Yukino Ichikawa Concert Japan 2025 is a special performance by enka singer Yukino Ichikawa on November 8, 2025, at 14:00 at Kobe International Hall (Hyogo Prefecture). Born in Saitama, Ichikawa has been a prominent figure in enka since her debut in 1993, known for hits like “Saihatate Strait” and appearances on NHK’s Red and White Song Battle in 2016 and 2017 (). This concert, part of her ongoing tours, likely features a setlist of traditional enka, fan favorites, and possibly collaborations with artists like Midori Oka or Konomi Mori, as seen in her “New Enka Three Sisters” event (). Praised on X for her “soulful delivery and vibrant stage presence,” Ichikawa draws a dedicated audience. Kobe International Hall (~2,100 seats) offers excellent acoustics, ideal for her emotive performances (). Tickets are ¥6,500 (all seats reserved), with resale prices potentially reaching ¥8,000–¥10,000 due to demand (). Perfect for enka fans and tourists near Kobe’s Chinatown or Meriken Park, early booking via Jasumo is essential due to limited seating and Ichikawa’s popularity (,).

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: Platforms like Ticket Pia require free membership, Japanese phone numbers, or specific payment methods. Jasumo assists with navigation and international payment options where available.
• High Demand and Limited Availability: With a venue capacity of ~2,100 and Ichikawa’s popularity, driven by her NHK Red and White Song Battle appearances, securing tickets is highly competitive (,). Jasumo helps manage sales deadlines and accessibility requests to maximize your chances.

Due to high demand and limited availability, securing tickets is not guaranteed. Refunds will only be issued in the event of cancellation. We strongly recommend booking by November 3, 2025, to access official prices of ¥6,500 and avoid inflated resale prices, e.g., ¥8,000.
