Participation tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and are limited in number, so early reservations are recommended. Ticket distribution begins on Sunday, July 19, 2026.

Participating stores for ticket distribution include Ikebukuro Honten and Akihabara Building 1. Tickets are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and will end once supplies are depleted.

There is a limit of one ticket per person per venue and per session.

On the event day, seating will be determined by a lottery upon entry. Participation tickets will have serial numbers, not seat numbers. Children aged elementary school and older require one participation ticket, which generally grants one seat. Full payment for the CD must be made in cash; credit cards and Animate points cannot be used. The transfer or resale of participation tickets is strictly prohibited.
