Please make sure to complete the procedure. For details, please see here
2. Food and drink in the Cheering Area
Food and drinks are allowed in situations where vocal support is not being conducted before the match, during halftime, and after the match (bringing in alcoholic beverages is not permitted).
Whether before the match, during halftime, or after the match, vocal support is being conducted, and consumption of food and drinks is not allowed during the match (however, hydration with non-alcoholic beverages is permitted).
□Notes
1. Establishment of Vocal Support Area
[Similar to the Sapporo match on 7/6 (Wed)]
Only the following seat types will be designated as the "Vocal Support Area" and will be arranged in a checkerboard pattern.
・Home Free Seating Lower Level
・Visitor Free Seats Lower Level
* Each upper stand is not a "cheering area with vocal support".
* Ticket checks will be conducted when entering the "Cheering Area," so please present your ticket when entering that area.
* It is mandatory to wear non-woven masks in the same area. Please check the viewing manners for details.
The seat change service to free seating for SOCIO designated seat holders is available for this match, but please note that if the relevant seat type is sold out, you will not be able to change your seat type.
[Seat Map]
【About Seat Spacing】
For this match, only the home and visitor free seating areas designated as the "Cheering Area" will have a checkerboard seating arrangement with one seat empty in front, behind, and on both sides.
*Due to the structure of the stadium, there may be areas where the seating is not arranged in a regular pattern. Thank you for your understanding.
Except for the cheering area, tickets will be sold with seats closely packed together.
2. Stadium capacity is limited to 50% and regarding the viewing for SOCIO and corporate annual ticket holders
[Changes from the Sapporo match on 7/6 (Wed)]
Based on the J.League's newly established guidelines for COVID-19 and the government's basic response policy, the stadium capacity will be limited to 50%.
As mentioned earlier, the "cheering area" will have spaced seating, but outside of the "cheering area," seating will be arranged closely together.
Tickets will be sold until the number reaches 50% of the stadium's capacity, without a limit of 50% per seat type, so please purchase them as soon as possible.
[To all SOCIO members]
Although there is a 50% limit, seating with space between seats will only be available in the lower section of the home free seating, so it will be implemented in Pattern A. Regardless of the advance seating method, refund method, or tickets for the next six months, you can enter with your SOCIO card.
Refunds will only be accepted for those who have purchased home free seating SOCIO tickets for the past six months. (See below 3.)
Additionally, for all home free seating SOCIO members who wish to watch the game in the "Cheering Area," please remember to obtain an entry ticket for the "Cheering Area" in advance. We appreciate your cooperation. (See below 4.)
【Corporate Annual Ticket Holders】
Corporate annual ticket holders can use the exchange voucher.
Please bring your exchange ticket for the match and proceed to the exchange tent for processing.
* For those with home free seating, we will ask for your preference for lower or upper levels at the time of exchange and provide accordingly.
3. Refund method selection - Regarding the acceptance of refunds for home free seating SOCIO tickets for the next six months.
[7/6 (Wed) Sapporo match similar]
Regarding the refund method and tickets for the next six months, it is stated at the time of sale that "refunds will be provided for matches that are held with restrictions and require seating with space between seats."
For this match, home free seating attendees will need to maintain a distance between seats in certain areas. Therefore, we will accept refunds for those who wish to choose a refund method and have purchased home free seating SOCIO tickets for the next six months.
