Thank you very much for your always passionate support.
We implemented a lottery system for the waiting line at the Shonan match on 11/23. Based on feedback from everyone regarding this matter, we had already announced that a lottery system would be implemented for the next match, but we will cancel the lottery system for the Urawa match on 11/30. We will make some changes to the traditional waiting line operation method that had been in place until the Hiroshima match on 8/17, as detailed below.
[Updated: 11/26(Tue)]
We will provide additional explanations based on the inquiries and feedback we have received so far, so please check. (Highlighted in red)
1. Implementation Method
(1) Changes from the conventional queue operation method
<Change Point 1>
For each SOCIO who gathers at 8:00 AM, the maximum number of people who can enter simultaneously at the opening time for SOCIO, including that person, is 5. (You can come alone)
<Change Point 2>
Only the SOCIOs who gather at 8:00 AM will receive a card with a numbered ticket. The distributed cards will be collected upon entry.
(2) Flow of the Day
On the day of the match, please gather at the "Euro Sports Ajinomoto Stadium Store Side Triangle Plaza" starting at 8:00 AM. The maximum number of people who can enter at the same time is up to 5, including that person. (Change point ①)
・Starting from 8:00 AM, you will move to the waiting area of the desired entrance gate as soon as you are ready. (As usual)
・After moving to the waiting area for the desired entrance gate, up to 5 cards with the assigned numbers will be distributed. The distributed cards will be collected upon entry. Those without a card at the time of entry will not be allowed to enter simultaneously. (Change point ②)
・After moving to the waiting area, you can leave the waiting line. Please return to the waiting line by 10:00 AM. (As usual)
・Those who join the waiting line after moving to the waiting area should line up at the end of the waiting area. Please note that there will be no distribution of numbered cards for those individuals.(As usual)
・At the time of entry (before baggage inspection), cards with the assigned number will be collected.
(3) Others
・General tickets (including QR tickets) will be operated in the same manner as SOCIO, but no numbered tickets will be distributed. (Numbered tickets will only be distributed to SOCIO members who arrive by 8:00)
・Reserving spots by laying down sheets from the day before is prohibited.
・Only those with reserved seat tickets can use the main gate.
・Entry through the main gate will begin at 10:35 AM, which is 5 minutes after the SOCIO opening time. (Entry for all ticket types will be allowed through the main gate once the waiting lines at other gates are cleared)
・There is no general parking available, so please refrain from coming by car.
・Please absolutely refrain from street parking in the nearby areas as it will cause inconvenience.
