For the purpose of "identifying and notifying contacts in the event of an infection," tickets will only be sold through FC Tokyo (J-League Tickets). Please note that there will be no sales at convenience stores or at the stadium's "same-day ticket sales" on the day of the match.
In addition, to minimize contact between customers and staff, we recommend purchasing QR tickets.



▽Definition of adjacent seating when there is space between seats and notes for ticket acquisition
As stated below, during matches with restrictions, please take your seats with space between them.
Regardless of the seat type or position, the seating arrangement is based on J-League regulations, maintaining a distance of 1 meter from the center of each seat to the center of surrounding seats.






During the extremely strict security measures (strong restrictions) for match開催 (5,000 person limit), the main side (Main SS, Main S) and the back side (Back, Center) will have a horizontal spacing of 2 seats, the north side (home) will have a horizontal spacing of 2 seats up to the 17th row of the lower tier, and from the 18th row of the lower tier onwards, there will be a horizontal spacing of 3 seats. The upper tier will have a horizontal spacing of 3 seats throughout.

Therefore, when making a purchase, please consider seat numbers with 1 to 3 seats available as consecutive seats.
※If you purchase seats through automatic selection, even if they are consecutive seats according to the above rules, a notice stating "We were unable to provide consecutive seats. You will be provided with seats that are separated. If this is acceptable, please check the approval and proceed with the process." will be displayed in the system, but please proceed as is.
(Example) When selecting 2 tickets and obtaining "Row 1 Seat 1 and Row 1 Seat 4", Row 1 Seats 2 and 3 are not available for sale, so please consider them as consecutive seats.


Additionally, it is possible to purchase tickets with automatic seat selection, but it is not guaranteed that seats will be together due to the system. Therefore, we recommend purchasing by selecting individual seats.

【Rules for Automatic Seat Selection】
It is possible to purchase tickets with automatic seat selection, but please note that seats will be automatically selected according to the rules below. Therefore, we recommend that you choose your own seats by purchasing through the "Individual Seat Selection" option.

・Automatic Selection Rule
Select from available seats that are "close to the pitch" and in the "central area" within the chosen seat type

[Red shaded area] Seats that have already been sold
[Gray shaded area] Seats that were not originally for sale
[Yellow shaded area] Seats available for sale

In the above case, if you purchase two tickets with automatic selection, "seats 4 and 7 in row 7 are available next to each other"; however, in the case of automatic selection, seats that are "close to the pitch" and in the "central area" will be automatically selected, resulting in "seats 4 in row 3 and 2 in row 6" being chosen.
If you choose individual seat selection, you can select and purchase your own seats, allowing you to purchase "seats 4 and 7 in row 7" together, so please make sure to purchase with individual seat selection.

▽Major Changes in the Strict Security Match System
①All Seats Are Reserved
To identify and notify contacts in the event of an infection, all attendees must sit in reserved seats. Please note that seat changes cannot be made after purchase.
In addition, due to the conversion to all reserved seating, the seating arrangement and prices differ from regular matches, so please be careful when making your purchase.
Seats in the 19th row of the lower stand are expected to be wet from rain. On the day of the event, in order to prevent the spread of infection, moving to vacant seats or aisles under the roof to watch the game is strictly prohibited. Please make sure to watch from the seat you purchased, so please be careful when making your purchase.
Due to the conversion to all reserved seating, priority entry for SOCIO will not be implemented.

②Tickets sold only through FC Tokyo (J.League Tickets)
As with ①, tickets will only be sold through FC Tokyo (J.League Tickets) for the purpose of identifying and notifying contacts in the event of an infection.

③ Seat Spacing
To prevent the spread of infection, please maintain a distance of 1 to 3 seats between you and others in front, behind, and to the sides. Accompanying guests, including family members who came with you, should also maintain this spacing (children who are not yet in school may sit on laps).

④Tickets will be on sale about one week before the match
Due to the possibility of changes in match hosting restrictions depending on the spread of the novel coronavirus, ticket sales will start for each match approximately one week before the match date. Additionally, the first day of sales for advance, early, and general sales will begin at 8:00 AM.

⑤Temperature Measurement
On the day of the event, temperature measurements will be conducted at the entrance gate. Please note that if your temperature is 37.5℃ or higher, you will be denied entry even if you have a ticket.


There are many points that differ from the usual, not related to other tickets. We will inform you about the management methods for restricted matches as soon as they are decided, so please check back. Thank you for your understanding.
