▽Definition of consecutive seats when there is a gap between seats and precautions when purchasing tickets
As follows, please sit with a space between seats during limited capacity matches.
During the state of emergency (strong restrictions), matches will be held with a limit of 5,000 people. The main side (Main SS, Main S) and the back side (Back, Center) will have a distance of 2 seats horizontally. The north side (Home) will have a distance of 2 seats horizontally up to the 17th row, and from the 18th row onwards, there will be a distance of 3 seats horizontally. The upper level will have a distance of 3 seats horizontally for all rows.
Therefore, when purchasing, please consider it as consecutive seats if there are 1 to 3 vacant seats with seat numbers.
※If you purchase seats automatically selected, even if they are consecutive seats according to the above rules, the system will display the message "We were unable to provide consecutive seats. We will provide seats that are separated. If there is no problem, please check the approval and proceed with the procedure as it is.". Please proceed as it is.
(Example) When you select two seats and get "Row 1 Seat 1 and Row 1 Seat 4", seats Row 2 Seat 2 and Seat 3 are not available for sale, so please consider them as consecutive seats.
Note: It is also possible to purchase tickets with automatic seat selection at the time of purchase, but please note that it is not guaranteed to be able to secure adjacent seats due to system limitations. We recommend purchasing tickets with individual seat selection.
[Automatic Seat Selection Rules]
It is possible to purchase tickets with automatic seat selection at the time of purchase, but please note that the seats will be automatically selected according to the following rules. We recommend that you purchase seats by selecting them individually using "Individual Seat Selection".
・Automatic Selection Rule
Select a seat that is "close to the pitch" and "close to the center area" from the available seats within the selected seat type.
[Red shaded area] Seats that have already been sold
[Gray shaded area] Seats that were not originally for sale
[Yellow shaded area] Seats currently on sale
In the above case, if you choose automatic selection and purchase 2 tickets, it will be "vacant seats in rows 7, seat 4 and row 7, seat 7 are adjacent". However, in the case of automatic selection, seats that are "close to the pitch" and "close to the center area" will be automatically selected, so "row 3, seat 4 and row 6, seat 2" will be selected.
If you choose individual seats, you can select and purchase seats by yourself. You can also purchase seats as "7th row, seat 4 and 7th row, seat 7" together. Please purchase individual seats.
