▽Definition of consecutive seats when there is a gap between seats and notes when purchasing tickets


As shown below, when holding a restricted game, please sit with a space between seats. During a state of extreme vigilance (strong restrictions) with a limit of 5,000 people, the main side (Main SS, Main S) and the back side (Back, Center) will have a space of two seats, the North side (Home) will have a space of two seats up to the 17th row, and a space of three seats from the 18th row and above, and all upper levels will have a space of three seats.
Therefore, when purchasing, please consider seats with a gap of 1 to 3 seats as consecutive seats.
※If you purchase seats automatically selected, even if they are consecutive seats according to the above rules, "Continuous seats could not be prepared. Seats will be separated. If there is no problem, please check the approval and proceed with the procedure as it is." will be displayed as a cautionary message on the system, but please proceed as it is.
(Example) When selecting two seats, if you get "Row 1 Seat 1 and Row 1 Seat 4", seats 2 and 3 in Row 1 are not available for purchase, so please consider purchasing adjacent seats.


Please note that it is possible to purchase tickets with automatic seat selection, but please be aware that it is not guaranteed to be consecutive seats. We recommend purchasing tickets with individual seat selection.

【Rules for Automatic Seat Selection】
While it is possible to purchase tickets with automatic seat selection, please note that seats will be automatically selected according to the following rules. We recommend that you use the "Individual Seat Selection" option to choose your own seats when making a purchase.

・Automatic Selection Rule
Select from available seats that are "close to the pitch" and "close to the center" within the selected seat type.

[Red filled section] Seats that have already been sold
[Gray filled section] Seats that were not originally for sale
[Yellow filled section] Seats currently on sale

In the above case, if you choose automatic selection and purchase 2 tickets, it will be "vacant seats in rows 7 and 7 are adjacent", but in the case of automatic selection, "seats close to the pitch and in the center area" will be automatically selected, so "row 3, seat 4 and row 6, seat 2" will be selected.
If you choose individual seats, you can select and purchase your seats yourself. You can also purchase seats in "Row 7, Seat 4 and Row 7, Seat 7" together. Please purchase individual seats if possible.

On the day of the match, in order to prevent the spread of infection, please refrain from moving to seats or aisles under the roof or those that are vacant.
