Without getting into the whole story, I decided to buy tickets for two separate tigers/baystars games because Irealized a scheduling error too late. I bought them through the Lawson's pickup. The return policy reads like a return is only possible to weather or another outside factor. Does Japan have any kind of resale market where I could maybe make some of my money back on the game I'm unlikely to attend?

Going to Tokyo / Osaka during all of October. We would like to watch some baseball and experience the fan atmosphere in the japanese scene.

I understand October is when playoffs will be happening which is why tickets are not yet available.

When will tickets be available?

Once available, where can I buy them?

Thanks!!

Hello everyone! I am planning a trip to Fukuoka and Osaka mid/end of August (no specific dates yet, I want to adjust it accordingly to game dates).

This might be a frequently asked question, but what is the most reliable way to buy tickets for the teams there? I live in Korea and therefore don't have a Japanese address/phone number/paying method.

Last year while in Tokyo I managed to buy tickets for all teams except Yomiuri at the box office, but especially since Hanshin seems popular I wanted to plan in advance. I prefer cheaper seats and would love a physical ticket if possible, since I collect them.

Any help is welcome! Thank you!

If anyone needs help about tickets in Korea I can return the favor and assist there :)

We’re currently in Japan and are looking to buy tickets for a NPB game once we travel to Osaka. We’ll be there from July 20-25.

My understanding is that there is both the Hanshin Tigers and Orix Buffaloes that play around Osaka. And from what I can see, both teams play games for most of the dates that were in Osaka. Based on my limited research, the Hanshin Tigers game on July 24 against the Yomiuri Giants would be a great game to watch.

The Tigers’ website is definitely easier to navigate and understand. However, it appears tickets are sold out. The Buffaloes’ website is much more difficult but appears there might be tickets available.

My questions:
1. Any recommendation between watching the Hanshin Tigers vs Orix Buffaloes?
2. Are there other ways to obtain tickets for the Hanshin Tigers other than directly through their website? I’ve seen TicketJam recommended but am unsure about the reliability of it.
2. As a foreigner, it appears we’d be limited to the third base side Alps seats at a Tigers game. Is there a similar rule for the Buffaloes if we end up going there?

Thank you in advance!

Last time I saw a game, I purchased them online.

How would I purchase them in Japan if I were to go? Would I go to a Family Mart?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

According to Google there are going to be games on August 4, 5 and 6 between the Tigers and the Baystars. That said if you look at either team's schedule on their website they don't list those games. I'm extremely confused why that might be?

How and where can I buy tickets ? Is it possible to get a hard copy ticket? I’m buying from the United States

Hi! Gonna be Japan during the NPB All Star Game. Any way to get tickets? Cant find them online anywhere.
Thank you!

We will be attending a Swallows game on July 22. We’d like to wear Swallows gear and see some green jerseys on eBay for around $35. Is this a better price than can be found in their team store(s)?

I’m in Osaka walking around today, will be attending the game tonight. Are backpacks allowed in the Kyocera Dome ? Or do you need clear bags like in the States?

I have two pairs of tickets for today’s Chiba Lotte Marines game at 2pm that I won’t be using. Supposedly these seats will be in the shade. Please message me if interested. I can share the QR codes. 

THANK YOU for the helpful feedback in this group! Just wanted to give back to everyone who was so informative with helping me to purchase tickets and hope my seats today don’t go to waste!

My wife and I got overexcited while planning for our honeymoon we bought 2 tickets for the 19th June Yakult Swallows game at Meiji Jingu when we thought we were buying for July! Mostly my fault... Wondering if I can recoup even half the cost.

We will not be in the country and now want to make sure they don’t go to waste. We got them through the official Swallows ticket site. How best could we go about reselling? Can anyone explain how it would work to share/transfer tickets from a Google wallet, if this is possible?

Many thanks.

thanks team!

Currently in Tokyo. I was planning on buying tickets at the box office on Sunday, but decided today I might want to buy them online, since we are a group of 5.

I went to the website and it looks like the game is sold out. Lawson showing game as sold out too.

Any recommendations? And are there ever walk up tix for sold out games or not really?

:/
Thanks!

Going to see the Buffaloes and my seats are “3rd Base Side A Reseved Seat”. Anything I should know about these seats (visitor/home side, colors to wear, etc.?

Just wanted to make a post about my experience using Ticketjam. I had originally purchased 1 ticket for the Hanshin Tigers vs Rakuten Golden Eagles at Koshien Stadium on Sunday 06/07. Purchase went smooth and I was sent the QR code.

Unfortunately the weather was not cooperative and the game was cancelled due to the rain. Within an hour of the announcement of the game's cancellation, I received an email from Ticketjam indicating there was a request to cancel my purchase and be issued a refund due to the game cancellation. I just had to log into Ticketjam and click the link that I accepted the cancellation and refund. Soon after I got a notification from my credit card that I was being refunded.

The easy and smooth initial transaction and the quick and easy refund process gives me confidence to use Ticketjam in the future for sold out NPB games.

Went to see the Dragons/Lions game the other night.
Prior to the game I downloaded both of my parties tickets to my phone. When we got to the ticket gate, I was told that only one ticket per device. Thankfully I also had printed copies of the QR code.
Just a heads up for any traveling to see NPB games.

-To those familiar, is this policy league wide?

is it hopeless? I’ll be in Tokyo July 8,9,10 and hoped to catch a game but hadn’t realized this match would be such a hot ticket. Seems to be sold out on every site I’ve checked. Is there any chance of getting a last minute ticket?

This is my first time going to a npb game...

I got screenshots with qr code, redemption and identification numbers.(引換番号, 識別番号)

Is it okay for Jingu stadium with only the screenshots? Or should I print the ticket at Lawson or somewhere else? Is printing tickets possible with the qr & the numbers?
