Would this be possible to use for other artists as well, I really want my money's worth for an Ayu, Namie, and then Kuu concert fund, once I get a job I'm saving up cause those are the three I want to see perform before I die.

^ Yeah, I guess this would help. I mean, it helps you plan a trip to Tokyo, which, obviously, those three perform in Tokyo, and then this guide also helps you buy tickets for concerts and such (via middlemen, reseller shops, etc).

I have a question about my Ayu ticket...how I can I tell which floor and seat I'm in? (What are the kanji for those?)

There are basically 3 types of seats for a normal ticket.

Type 1: Arena <seat section> Block <seat no.> Seats
Kanji/Katakana: アリーナ<seat section> ブロック <seat no>番台

Type 2: Elevated Level 1 Seats (North or South) <seat section> Row <seat no.> Seats
Kanji/Katakana:　1階南(South) or 1階北(North) <seat section> 列<seat no>番台

Type 3: Elevated Level 2 Seats (North or South) Row <seat no.>
Kanji/Katakana:　2階南(South) or 2階北(North) <seat section> 列<seat no.>番台


If you are watching auctions bids, some Japanese will like to censor the seats number section on the ticket photos. I do not understands why they does this. Probably they are sly traders. But usually in the bid description you can spot the full description of the tickets (Just look out for the Kanji/Katakana words i had listed).

It's best that you try to remember these few kanji words by heart as when you go to the concert venue you have to find these seats anyway.

polka-dot-jewel 17th May 2008 06:00 AM
^ Okay, lol after 5 minutes of comparing my ticket to your guide, I finally figured out where I'm sitting...

2階 (2nd level)
北B7列 (North section B7)
3番 (seat 3)

I figured that's what it was actually, but I just had to make sure. ^^ Thank you!!

Great post mate, I'll add this quick ticket-reading guide to the first post :).

@Celaphorce, this guide is very general, it talks about how to get to Tokyo, how to survive there and how to get tickets for a venue in Japan if you are not a Japanese speaker or native. It could be applied to any artist you like :).

thks xD

its for the benefits of those who wanted to fulfill this 'dream' of watching Ayu's concert anyway(with my knowledge of my mediocre Japanese proficiency) ~ :)

OMG wish I saw this earlier.....
My 6 nights hotel in Shinjuku alone would cost $1700.
I already booked it and hell it's not refundable!!

I'm planning to go to Japan next year(2009), and inicially, I wanted to go between April and May(we're going for 2 weeks), but due to circumstances with my mother's job, we can't go before June 16. My question is:

Through the past few years, has anyone noticed what were the dates for her last few concerts?

I know that in this thread, on the first page it's written her last ones are 17-18 of June, but I read somewhere else that her last one is June 28th(I've even seen tickets being sold for that date on Yahoo Japan Auction).

I'd like an estimate of when are her last performances in Japan. I'm going to Japan for two weeks yes, but the main reason I'm going is to see Ayu. I just figured I might as well make it a long vacation and visit the country afterwards.

Do her last representation end around the same dates every year?

I'd definitely like to have a day in between the time I arrive and the time of the concert if possible. The time different and travelling for a long time will likely be tiring. (I live in Canada, if you wanted to know.)

Thanks so much in advance~
I live in Canada too, i'm in Vancouver. I'm also planning to see one of her concert next year when i go to Japan. Probably somewhere between april and june. I found this thread very informative and will come back to it when it's time to get my tickets. Thanks for all the good info immel!!

:luv2 WEEEEEEEE I went to the Yoyogi concert on June 28, IT WAS AMAZING...I cried during MY ALL, as a lot of people said, Yoyogi Arena wasn“t that big, so my B6, seat 163 was really good!!!

I just wonder what ayumi said at the end...she seem so moved...:(

:luv2

great guide i also plan/hope to see one of her concerts and this helps alot the tough part for me is should i just go alone b/c i havent really found a friend that would go through all this to see her live =\

immel 28th July 2008 10:19 PM
If you have any clue about how you could find a ticket reseller store in Shanghai then you are set, just go there and pick up the tickets. But if you don't know the location of any, or how to find the location of one, then I say buy the tickets online. That way you can be sure you'll get to see her.

Hi everyone! I am trying to get tickets from eplus.jp
This question is for SunshineSlayer since she has gotten tickets from here before but if any of you guys know the answer please reply. Thanks.
As I am registering, I selected to pay with my visa credit card but then I get a message saying that my card is incorrect or currently unavailable. Did anyone esle have the same problem? My credit card is from a US bank and is a Visa.
And I tried to use google translate to translate this word but I still don't understand it, if anyone can help tell me what it means: "生月日". Thanks!

I“m planning to travel to Japan next year... I have to save money SO BAD!!!! Here in Argentina 1 dollar = 3,40 pesos, so it“s rather expensive to travel to Japan.... taking into account that the fly ticket costs $2,990 dollars... and an average salary in Argentina is more or less $500 - $600 dollars... this travel will be veeeery expensive but I think it will really worth!!!!

crea_spain 25th January 2009 01:25 PM
^ if you believe in your dream of going to Japan to see Ayu in concert it will be real some day... tienes todo mi apoyo, lucha por ir y verįs como lo consigues :) i'm going there in april and i'm so excited about !! fly ticket from Spain costs $1,000USD

Hatix 25th January 2009 08:49 PM

Ahhh I'm sorry I totally didn't see this until now. Yeah, it seems that eplus changed their policy and no longer allows foreign credit cards. I had no problem using that way in 2007, but in 2008 I was unable to as well.

生月日<<---- it sounds like "year, month, day". Could be probably something related with the expiration date? Well, SunshineSlayer already answered. :D

Anybody got updated google earth/map locations for reseller stores? The links on the first page points to a general Tokyo (Shinjuku) location.

I'm going to japan in april and i'd like to buy tickets for the Ayu concert in Saitama. I wanna look for the reseller stores in Ueno, Harajuku (the one in the LOVX building), Shinjuku and Shibuya. If anybody has the locations. I tried looking in streetview on google maps and couldn't find them.
