Alright, on to the main point. Getting concert tickets! :love In Japan, there are many ways for me to get tickets for you. The best way to get tickets at their original prices is to order them through TEAMAyu. Other ways include: buying tickets from convenience stores, buying tickets from resale shops, and buying tickets from ticket.co.jp. I've included explanations for each of the methods, so do read through and choose the one which you'd prefer. Method A: TEAMAyu - NO MORE Spoiler:
Method B: Buying Tickets from Convenience Stores - ONGOING Spoiler:
Method C: Buying Tickets from Resale Shops - ONGOING Spoiler:

|
Thanks for the info!

If I do plan to go to ayu's concert this year how far in advance should I buy the ticket? Also thanks so much for helping! This is a good thread.
|
This is really nice of you!
I wish I were going to see Ayu again this year :( Is there any way you are willing to do this for CDL10-11 as well? As of now, I am planning to go to that... |

That really is nice of you. I'd love to go to a concert this year, so hopefully I'll find some free time and money. No definite plans yet, but I'll remember this thread. ;)
|
this is a great thread!
i'm thinking of going to japan if there isn't a concert in taiwan, but i want to ensure that i get tickets BEFORE going there... as auctions in YAJ are normally within 2 weeks and my concern is that if i use a middleman, by the time it reach me..might be too late i'll let you know if i need your help. |
Really nice of you misa-chan!
I'm still waiting of my student visa *really takes time :(* and if it's out, i'm definitely going to Japan this April And i plan to watch her concert in Saitama (since it's the closest from Kofu) & also Kuu's concert If it's confirmed, i'll contact you for sure!! Thanks!! |
Hi all!! TEAMAyu preorders for tickets has started!! XD First post updated! ;)
You can preorder tickets for any of the 31 shows. The preorder ends 26th January, 6pm Japan time. So anyone who wishes to order tickets through TEAMAyu, please contact me before then. ;) |

But it's up to you, really n___n I'm just saying from my own experience. Good luck! |
you become my 2nd goddess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
I REALLY NEEEED 2 TICKETTSS!!!!!!!!!
ToT |
hmm...i'm thinking of the 15th May concert, but i wanna catch kuu' concert on the 16th too.
15/16 Ayu (横浜アリーナ-キョードー東京) 15/16 Kuu (埼玉県-キョードー東京) do you think if i ask you to buy from method C, can you help me search for a kuu's concert tickert too? |
Quote:
No problems!! Do PM me about your ticket budget and preferred seating if you have any. ;) And yep, I can help with Kuu tickets also! :yes |
^hmm, can i ask you a question? since you are in Japan right now, coz i'm noob when it comes to the locations there....and the average prices for tickets. (>_<) i had ONLY travel out of Singapore once, n tat was to Penang for my aunt's wedding, i didn't really get to see around....i feel like a 井底之蛙.
Q1: how near are these 2 areas? i'm scared that they are far apart, and i'll get lost going from one location to another. (T_T) 3th or 4th May - Ayu (長野ビッグハット-キョードー北陸チケットセンター) 1st or 2nd May- Kuu (愛知県- ｻﾝﾃﾞｰﾌｫｰｸﾌﾟﾛﾓｰｼｮ) coz i'm planning to go with altenarist, and he can't make it for any dates after 10th May, so i'm checking these dates. Q2: what is the average prices for seats on the ground level, like near the stage or catwalk path? |
I'm not planning to go to any concert at the moment, yet I only wanted to let you know you're awesome Misa-chan! ;)
|
I wish I was planning a vacation in Japan this summer ;_;
|
You are an angel! *-*; thank you so much for all your help!

I want to ask you a favour, I'll PM you! |

http://jetwit.com/wordpress/wp-conte.../map_japan.gif They're next to each other, so I'm thinking that there will definitely be trains running between them everyday, and that it'll probably take half a day or less to get between these 2 places. So don't worry too much about distance. ;) Q2. For seats at ground level aka ARENA, they're the highest priced of all. Those near the stage and catwalk are the ARENA seats, Blocks A and B. For pricing, they can normally go really high, starting price is about 35,000yen for one ticket. You can check out the link below to get an idea of average prices. http://www.ticket.co.jp/sys/search.p...52&st=20100503 Quote:

I go to Japan this summer and I would like to see Ayu on 24th july, can you help me?

if i were to go to them, what's your advice for accomdation? just get an hotel in one of them? coz if i were to get those city areas, by the time i reach the hotel, it should be pretty late. as for the tickets with selected seats, normally when are they available? sorry for my zillion questions.... |
Hmm, by express train, I'm guessing you can get from Aichi to Nagano in about 2 hours? Not very sure, but that's the average time you need to travel between prefectures.
For accommodation, I recommend that you pick places close to your concert venues if you're afraid of getting lost. Or if you don't mind travelling a little, you can easily find cheaper places that are abit farther from the concert venues. For example, you can watch Kuu's concert in Aichi on the 1st, and stay in Aichi that night. On the 2nd, you can start travelling over to Nagano, then stay over in Nagano that night, then go for ayu's concert on the 3rd or 4th. Just a recommendation. You can check out this website for possible places to stay over at. They provide descriptions, maps, prices and reviews for lots of hostel places. http://www.hostelworld.com/ Quote:

Hauuuuuu I want to go, but I won't be going to Japan for maybe another 2-3 years TT.TT
|
D: I'll PM you if I'm like 100% sure I'll be able to go~
Thanks for helping us~ |
dont forget me Misa Plz!!!
|
^ Lol I won't. Tickets with seatings are not out yet, so be patient! I'll contact all u guys asap when they are!
|
Hey Misa-chan, will all the seatings be revealed now for the June and July concerts too or just the early shows?
|
you have to check individual stadiums to see whether they release the seating arrangements.
Last year I nearly bought the tickets for Fukuoka stadium but they did not accept my middleman's address. cos the computer recognised it as a post office lolz. So tickets need ppl living in Japan to help us buy. |
I'm buying tickets through a friend of mine, but he doesn't know where he should go to buy them, can still help me by giving some information? THX in advance.
I'd like to be able to chose the seat so I guess only reseler shops count, do you (or anyone else here) know any of them in the area of shinjuku or ikebukuro? And do you think you can buy them already or they are not sold yet? I'll be in Japan on 31st of March but I'd like to have them bought earlier by my friend, just to be sure (the concert I want to attend in April 11th). It's my first and probably only concert so don't want to miss that chance. Thank you in advance for your help! |

^thank you <3
|
OMG misa-chan! U're really helpful!
how long do you stay in Japan? i'm not sure where i can go to Japan, but definitely not this year, maybe next year..OMG.. i hope you'll still be here to help us out when I'm about to go! you're so kind!!! |

Currently, the tickets are not available in resale stores yet, because avex has yet to print out actual tickets. Right now, buyers only have a receipt of payment to show that they have bought tickets, but not the real tickets themselves. Those will be mailed to the buyers at a later (as yet unconfirmed) date. Quote:
|
^ thank you, my friend lives in japan, so registering shouldn't be a problem, do you know when the tickets will be physically available for sale?
and besides, when you buy from convenience stores you can't chose your sits? that's kind of strage |
^ I'm not very sure when the tickets will be out physically. There's no news as of now, but I'm guessing it will be around mid-March.
Yep, you can't choose seats when you buy from convenience stores. You buy a ticket from the ticketing machine, go to the counter to pay, and get a receipt of payment. The physical ticket with your seating will be mailed to you after. |
I hate that sistem sooo much XDD why!!!??? I want to know the seat I'm buying!! XD The earlier you buy it the better chance you have to get a good seat! that's how it should be... and if they think it's unfair,t hen put diferent prices... you know... right now one person next to the catwalk pays the sames that person who is up-back the venue...
I don't like it.. XD anyway... I still think that TA tickets, even though they also give random seats, will be always arena A, B and maybe C block... Or have someone seen a TA pre-sale ticket being in the stands?? well.. about tickets.. are ALL tickets being sold? I mean, the tickets for convenience stores?? or only TA tickets hae been sold and are going to be shiped now?? |
^ Nope, I bought a TA ticket for CDL09/10, and got a seat on 2nd floor stands, near the back. So it's random too for TA preorders.
For convenience stores, there's no information about when tickets will go on sale as of now. |
^well.. maybe CDL is an exception.. there are only two shows... even TA has problems to get tickets...
if not I find it more unfair and I like the sistem even less XDD |
misa, hmm....i just need your help with one super easy question
Are 横浜アリーナ and さいたまスーパーアリーナ both in Tokyo??? coz alternarist can make it for the earlier dates, so we might be changing plans to 15th or 16th. since kuu is touring on 15th and 16th at さいたまスーパーアリーナ, i wonder is it in tokyo too, coz i prefer to stay around tokyo area....especially if i am trying to catch kuu too and do my shopping *scare of getting lost* a little O.T: Are you Angel???? coz it sounds too concidence that i knowing 2 girls who are studying in Japan, and is a TA member....hmm, but i'm just not sure whether is that you, i got Angel in my facebook list |

one more question, my friend wants to take part in the lottery (actually he says there are two), but we don't knwo two things:
a) if we apply for two tickets and we win, will those be two seats next to each other? b) if you get really bad tickets can you not accept them? when do you pay for lottery tickets anyway? thanks in advance for help :) |
Quote:
Quote:
b) No, you won't be able to reject them, because you have to pay before you get the tickets and know your seating. Normally you'll have to pay for the tickets within a few days after you receive a notification that you've won it. |
^thanks, so both are near tokyo, that's what i need. i don't wanna be too far away.
YES!!!! i tthink i really have a chance of catching both ayu and kuu's concerts!!!!! now i'll just go and check with bewatch and alternarist.... *runs to the singapore outing thread* |
New updates!!

how do u see the seating plan for the concert? (osaka to be exact)
|
Misa-chan, I'd want to ask you sth ^^
just in case... if they announce dates for october/nov I'll surely be going ^^ (YAY please ayu! XD) Ok... LOL But, when TA can buy them before the general purchasing, you select the day, the number of tickets... (I saw it for other concerts even though I didn't submit it xD) When you ask for them, if you get the tickets they e-mail you, right? After that, how it's supposed to be paid? Because now I can pay my membership and pay mu-mo with my visa, and they send whatever to an address I have in japan... but for concert tickets they also give you the option to pay with visa?? or how you are supposed to pay them?? I just want to know it because if they announce dates I want to be able to buy them immediately... and don't want to loose them for not knowing how to pay -______- thaanks ^^ |
If I can work my ass off this summer I will probably be getting a ticket for 7/24 or 7/25 :yes! I really need to get seeing Ayu off my bucket list :)!
|
Already 13th in Japan right? =D
|
Tickets went on sale at convenience stores today. I was able to get a ticket for 4/10 - only to find out shortly after that I probably have another obligation to go to that day, haha. So its probably off to the resale shop for me anyways to try and get a different date. Worst part is, its an A-block ticket! I didn't even know it was possible to get A-Block at the convenience store. The Saitama tickets sold out within 20 minutes; the Yokohama tickets were never even available to purchase (I was at the machine right at 10am when the sale started and never saw Yokohama even show up on the list).
|
I got my tickets too!! for 4/11. I still dunno what seats, a friend of mine bought them and he said he saw some numbers, but he will get the actuall tickets through the post.
I'm so happy, thanks for all the help :D |
I have a question regarding tickets which are bought through Lawson and Familymart. Are they valid tickets and can i get into the concert using them? (i've bought my tickets off yahoo japan auction).
|
^ Of course.
|
To all those people who have requested tickets for APRIL 10/11 SAITAMA:
Please check your PMs regularly these 2 coming weeks. Tickets will most likely be shipped out to TA members during this period so the buying of tickets with seatings will begin soon. ;) |

^ Oh!! Where was it posted I haven't seen it before. Sorry sorry!! ^^
For ticket purchasing through TeamAyu, you can't pay with credit cards. You have to go down personally to the convenience store to pay. The deal is, when you win the lottery for the tickets, you get an e-mail notifying you with how much you need to pay, and they let you choose which convenience store you'd like to pay at. You will also get a serial number which needs to be keyed into a machine at the convenience store for them to process your order. The reason for this is because, once you pay at the convenience store, the store will immediately print the tickets for you. There's no mailing involved at all. That's how it normally is. This tour is slightly different because at the time when we paid the tickets, everything at avex/TA side wasn't settled yet, so the store couldn't print tickets for us. That's why there's mailing of tickets to the TA members this time, and we need to pay an additional 500yen or so to cover the mailing costs too. So in the end, our tickets cost 9000yen (if I remember correctly). Hope this clears up any doubts. ;) |
i was checking up the tickets and for kuu's i found this is the only one that is on the ground floor, is this consider a good seat?
coz the rest are like on the 2nd or 3rd level!!!! i prefer to be on the ground floor.... (>_<) if yes, how much do i have to pay you? i'll then check with Leechan too. http://www.ticket.co.jp/sys/search.p...22&st=20100515 http://i44.tinypic.com/23m4qs5.jpg |
^ Hmmm, that's actually on the 4th level.
Nゲート = N gate 400LV = 4th level/floor 1列 = 1st row 120-160 = seat number range Seats on the ground level will normally have this "アリーナ" which means arena. |
Quote:
well... I know a website that offers a service to collect tickets... I think some users here have used it to be TA members or to be in Kuu's FC too... Celga... maybe I could ask them (if I get tickets someday) to pick them for me with the serial number... so baad.... hahaha thanks for answering! but what a pitty that they had this problem and you had to pay more!! Hope you'll get super good seats!! |
A small drawing I made of Yoyogi Gymnasium seating plan. Hope this helps those who are attending a concert there. ;)

anyone been to osaka stadium concert?
Why is there two pricing for the concert o.O? 全席指定：$8,500 立見：$7,500 Which 1 is the arena? and is eplus having pre order sale? http://eplus.jp/sys/main.jsp?prm=U=1...P5=0004:P6=001 That isnt for Teamayu right? Sorry for asking so many questions ^^ |
^全席指定 are tickets with seats. 立見 are tickets without seats (meaning you stand around in the aisle/anywhere where there's space I'm guessing)
The link you submitted isn't preorders, but orders straight. You login, order a ticket online, then go down to the convenience store to pay/use a credit card. It's not for TA, but for anyone who has an account on eplus. ;) |
Quote:
and misa-chan.. that thing of the convenience stores... how many day you have to pick them?? I mean... can you go some days before the show and get it? LOL and btw.. isn't late night, around 3,30am in japan? XD |
^ There are 2 ARENA BLOCK As right, A1 is on the north side, while A2 is on the south side (I think) :) There are 8 arena blocks in total.
|
Misa san! some news about Yokohama? =(
plss ToT thanks!! |
Quote:
http://fc.avex.jp/ayu/tour/ayu2010_live/ For example, for this upcoming tour, if you win the ticket lottery, you have to pay for the tickets at a convenience store between 2 Feb and 8 Feb. If you don't, the tickets will just go to the public sales pool. If you know someone in Japan, however, you can ask him/her to help pay for you + collect your ticket, then mail it to you or something. ;) And yeah, it was late night. :D Quote:
|
Misa-chan.. do we (Lacus & I) have a chance to get the ground level seats on Kuu's tour @Saitama?
|
think we have to keep checking the ticket.co.jp site often for arena seats....
|
*O* you are my 2nd idol... (ayu is the first xD)
Quote:
|
Tickets preordered through TeamAyu have been officially shipped out. Expect tickets with seatings to start popping up in resale places during the next few days!! ^^
|
Quote:
:nervous |
angel....it's quite hard to find through ticket.co.jp, most tickets are high levels.
think it might be better if you try the resellers shops.... can you check for us the arena seat tickets for: 2x Kuu's on 15th may 4x ayu's on 16th may |
^ Yep! I definitely will when they start coming out!!
Give ticket.co.jp some more time too, now that TA members have received their tickets with seatings, I'm sure more will start going on sale soon. ;) |
^ YAY!! Thanks for your help, Angel!
Anyway, where do you live in Tokyo? We definitely have to meet when I got there :D |
Thank you very much for the information Misa Chan. Do let me know when the saitama tickets is out on sale. :)
|
^ Yes, Saitama tickets are out for sale!! Do check out ticket.co.jp to see the tickets available as well as how much they cost roughly.
The following members, I've found tickets to your preference, please check your PMs for more details. Seifen Keichan schofield Updated the payments section, do read through to understand the payment procedure. Quote:

Please excuse me if I've misunderstood how to do this, but I'm currently in Japan until May, and I'd like to get an Ayu ticket for one of her Osaka concerts. I'm serious about wanting to see Ayu in concert, so... I'll give you some info here? PLEASE tell me if I'm doing this wrong.\
1) I'd prefer option B, the convenience stores, mostly because of price. If that's not available, option C will do; my price cap is 10,000Yen, my seating choice is anywhere (although a middle-ish section, as opposed to the side, would be best). 2) Osaka Castle Hall, 4/24 performance. 3) One (1) ticket only 4) As said above, if option C is necessary, price cap is 10,000Yen, seats somewhere in the middle region if at all possible. I'm sure that no matter where I sit I'll love it; I saw one of my absolute favorite bands this summer and had a spectacular time even though I was in the cheap grass seats. Thank you so much!!!!! |
angel, how do i tell which are the arena seats for ayu's concert? or which seats are on 2nd/3rd levels? coz i see that seating specifications are different from kuu's?
|
rai: convenience store is not an optionf or that show anymore. They would definitely be sold out. You need to check resale shops.
LacusClyne: On the ticket it will say Arena or Stand (in Katakana) with the row number next to it and the seat number blocked out. However for Yokohama Arena you have to be careful because they are named differently! What is commonly though of as Arena seating is called "Center" and what is commonly though of as stand seating is called "Arena"! The tickets that are actually marked "stand" mean the upper most level of stands only. |
^hmm....i can't read kanji.....
|
^
Arena = アリーナ Stand = スタンド Centre = センター The best thing to do is always check the highest priced tickets listed, those listed will probably be the Arena aka best seats in the venue. To all buyers: I'm currently unfortunately having some problems with my credit card so I won't be able to buy some tickets from ticket.co.jp. When looking for tickets, please note that I can only purchase those in white boxes (not shaded-blue). Am really really sorry for any inconveniences caused. :thud |
:laugh i still don't get this thing with ticket.co.jp
what about this Fanclub seating?? |

|
YAY! waiting for good news from you, Angel :D
I'll be arrived in Japan on April 1st :D |
^ah ha! then you can help us check for the kuu's seats at those resellers' shop too!
for kuu's i die die want arena seats, because of the concert theme where she gets audience up to stage!!!! as for ayu, if both arena tickets end up too much, i don't mind 2nd lvl(near the stage one) |
^ I'm not going to stay at Tokyo :( It takes more than 2 hours to Tokyo with bus.
In addition, I have placement test on 5th T___T Yes.. for Kuu, i prefer arena seat.. and for ayu, it's okay with 2nd level :D *save money for more goodies* |
^hmm...so for the tokyo concerts, the tickets have to be bought ONLY fromt he tokyo's reseller shops?
i thought other areas shops will have them too??? and ya....i agree withthe ayu part. since we are going to 2 concerts, we need to save more, coz we have more things to buy. |
Okay, let me try this again. I checked ticket.co, and I'm pretty sure I want this ticket...
1) Option D 2) Osaka Castle Hall, 4/24 performance. 3) One (1) ticket only 4) Option D, ticket specified below. I'd buy it right off myself, but I don't know enough Japanese to know if I'm totally not doing what I want to do. 10,000Yen is my cap. If I've got it wrong somehow, please let me know! 10年04月24日 18時30分(土) 大阪城ホール 大阪 アリーナ 51列 25～35番 ２枚連番(バラ売り不可) １枚当り 9,500円 And thank you. |
