Tips for J-Pop Concert Goers

  • Follow official artist pages – Twitter/X and Instagram post ticket drops first.
  • Use VPNs for Japanese ticket sites – Some sites geo-block.
  • Buy glowsticks, but check rules – Not all venues allow big light gear.
  • Learn the chants (otagei!) – It’s part of the culture!
  • Prepare merch money – Trust me, it adds up fast
