Ayu concert on July 28th

[saigodansu]

$200 - $250 US is around what I paid for D-Block, If you're on a budget try finding D or higher in letter.

At least Yoyogi has Block-Arena seats xD When I was at Fukuoka they had no blocks for Arena, I was so confused when I picked up my tickets at first because there was no block number XD
But when looking on the Osaka Arena pic it was A block i think o.o And now with seeing the prices I just realized how lucky I was xD
I hope I will get as good seats next time^^ Hope I can go again next year ._.

I'm going for the concert on 27. At elevated seat,b area. Anyone knows if its very far from the stage? Thanks!

[saigodansu]

Elevated seat B is 2nd from the back. Elevated A is the worst.

[evolution]

Oh man! Given my seat, do you know if I could get a okay view of ayumi? Is the stadium big?

[saigodansu]

It's pretty big, I had elevated A seat for 7 Days Special, if you watch the big screens more than the stage you can see it ok.

is it possible for anyone who happens to be in Japan to update us on the available tickets in reseller stores? the seating wise? and rough prices?

I realize they tend to sell arena/floor tickets in pairs? is that usually the casE?

[saigodansu]

From my experience, if you are arriving 2-3 days in advance, the shop in Shibuya will end up the only one with tickets left and only 1-4 tickets at that. The scalpers at the arena will probably have another 4-8 tickets but at even higher prices.

Haha, you now actually make me nervous about maybe not being able to get a ticket for the last show when I land on the 26th. Maybe I should look online for that show too... Anxious!

i have another question.
hoe do we interpret this?

C3ブロック 200-240番

I understand C3 is the block but can we gauge where is 200-240? do seat numbers start from 1 at each block?

[saigodansu]

It's easier to find the seat once you have the ticket and are in the arena. Most seating charts are not detailed enough to determine exact seating. C3 though is a very good seat if you can not afford the outrageous prices for A & B.

i see..I reckon B3, B5, C3, C4, C5 are good seats since they are the ones that surround the circular stage?

What about those like B2, C2, B6, C6. They arnt the nearest..and I see tickets on Yahoo Auction selling this range of C2-4 which makes me very uncertain whether to bid for it?

[saigodansu]

If you look at the seating chart someone posted above in this thread, that shows the sections(the B,C), then the number is how many rows of seats back you are. So The lower the letter the better, and the lower number is closer if on that same letter. If it's the elevated seats though, they do the opposite, A is farthest away for elevated seats.

The B2, B3, B5 and B6 you found are best, C2,C3,C5 and C6 are 1 section farther back but probably going to be less expensive.

There are some C seats though that are very close to the extended catwalk. Check the seating chart at the yokohamaticket link that I posted above.

I landed for RNRC 2 days in advance for the finale and still found 2 tickets at Yokohama Ticket in Shibuya, with their other locations sold out. But the scalpers had atleast 6-8 people out selling tickets the day of the concert. If you're not taking a ton of luggage like I was for a 3 month stay, just take the Narita express straight to Shibuya, head across the street in the direction of 109 and take a right, grab a ticket your 1st day there.

Thanks a lot for all the info saigodansu!
Even though I've read on the AHS tutorial to get tickets that they were discounting tickets closer to the concert date (bad 2nd floor seats selling for less than face value), it feels that won't be the case here...

Thing is I have a top limit of 20,000 yen for the final show. Do you think they would still have a few for that price (then again, I don't mind having not so good seats) when I arrive on the 26th?
I would expect scalpers to sell them for millions at the venue!

[heavenlycarols]

Is the location of the shops still the same? Kinda afraid I might not be able to find it.

[saigodansu]

Yes they're still the same.

[saigodansu]

The scalpers tickets are usually for sections A & B so their prices are 60,000+ usually. With 20,000 hopefully you can get at least D, which was a good seat for my 1st concert.

[freedreamer]

sorry but does anyone know roughly how far these seats are??

Block Ｃ３-Ｃ５ Seats ２００-２４０番

[saigodansu]

A & B surround the stage and catwalk and C is just behind those on the left side, 200-240 probably near the back of the floor seats. Try for C or D(right side of floor) with 01-50 and your view should be really good. 200-240 you might have to watch the screens more than the people to enjoy it. Those screens make the view good from anywhere though.
