Subscriber julieleeosborn 0 Posted August 21, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) Does anyone know the process of getting into the stadium with a standing front ticket? will the tickets have the numbers on it so that there will be no queuing the day before? I will be traveling from the USA and wanted to know if I should arrive couple days before to get numbers or we are automatically assigned numbers on our tickts. thanks Edited August 21, 2019 by Max Tsukino CAPS LOCK removed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Community Moderator Max Tsukino 2,767 Posted August 21, 2019 Community Moderator Share Posted August 21, 2019 At this moment is unknown how the queue and the entrance will work for the Tokyo shows... there are information floating about how GA had worked for other artists' shows in the same venue, but it's impossible to say if it will be the same for the U2 shows. Safest is to keep checking the boards and social media for if any information surfaces - if you find something, please share it here. Also, please do not use the CAPS lock when posting. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber ddarroch 54 Posted August 24, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) As Max has said, nothing is known at this stage. Although it is common for GA in Japan to enter by ticket number, with no queues forming until the late afternoon, just before entry. Ticket numbers are expected to be allocated in the order they were purchased. So people who purchased tickets early in the Red Hill presale will likely be the first onto the arena floor. It's a ll guess work at this stage though. Japan looks like such an amazing place. If you haven't been there before, & have the time, I'd recommend arriving early & spending some extra time there. Getting your ticket from 7-eleven when you arrive, & checking up on the GA process. That's what I'll be doing. Although it's not in central Tokyo, transport to Saitama Super Arena looks quite easy & efficient. So it's possible to stay in areas of central Tokyo & be at the arena in under an hour.

Subscriber adge80 2 Posted November 6, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 6, 2019 It's amazing what's happen in NZ for the queue! Numbers 5 days before show.. Who's this people? Can't imagine this in Japan. What's your opinion? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber razspazz 36 Posted November 7, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 7, 2019 I'm a big fan of 'first come, first served' to be honest. If you want to turn up a month before the show...great...but if you leave the line you should lose your place. It's self controlling and simple. However.... My personal opinion is that the 'super fans' are hijacking the shows. Oh you came here a week before the show, and staked a place in line....BUT you still want to go home for lunch and have a shower? Nope. Anyone turning up the day before a Rock and Roll gig should be ushered away. Sunrise on the day is fair game. That's what i think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber adge80 2 Posted November 7, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 7, 2019 Same opinion! super fans' are hijacking the shows. And fans are not the good term for this people Wait and see for Tokyo... Not my first time in Japan. Not the japanese style! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber ballardmama 33 Posted November 7, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 7, 2019 Aren’t the tickets numbered so you line up in number order? I guess the question is will he venue use the ticket numbers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber jonno77 36 Posted November 11, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 11, 2019 Yeah I’m curious on this too, and for Seoul. I’ve not got a clue what my number is for Tokyo but Seoul it’s decent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber jremyu2 0 Posted November 15, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 15, 2019 Since more and more venues and stadiums dont allow camping, the "super-fan" volunteers who connect with the venue and manage the queue are great. Organized and fair. And no, I am not one of them, but the last two shows I went to with GA tickets were smooth and great because of this. It's not perfect, but best current solution.
