For this match, please be seated in a checkerboard pattern with one seat empty in front, behind, left, and right, only in the lower level of the home general seating area and visitor general seating area designated as the "vocal support area".
*Please note that due to the structure of the stadium, there may be areas where seats are not arranged regularly. Please understand in advance.


Seats will be sold by packing them together, except for the cheering area.



2. Regarding the attendance of 50% of the stadium capacity and the viewing of SOCIO and corporate annual tickets
Based on the J-League's newly established guidelines for COVID-19 infection prevention and the government's basic response policy, the stadium capacity will be limited to a maximum of 50%.
As mentioned above, the "Voice Support Area" will have seats spaced apart, while areas other than the "Voice Support Area" will have seats filled.
There is no 50% limit for each seat type, and ticket sales will end as soon as the number of tickets sold reaches 50% of the stadium capacity, so please purchase them as soon as possible.


【SOCIO Members Only】
Although it will be limited to 50% capacity, seating with spacing between seats will only be available in the lower section of the home general seating area, and will be implemented under Pattern A. Regardless of the advance seating assignment or refund method, you can enter with your SOCIO card.
Refund reception will be available only for home free seat SOCIO members who have selected the refund method. (See below 3.)

【For corporate season ticket holders】
Corporate season ticket holders can use exchange vouchers.
Please bring your ticket for the match and proceed to the exchange tent.
※For those with home general admission tickets, we will ask for your preference for the lower or upper level at the time of exchange and hand them over.


3. Regarding the acceptance of refunds for home general admission tickets using the SOCIO refund method
Regarding the refund method, it is stated at the time of sale that "refunds will be provided for matches that have become limited in terms of holding and require seating with spacing between seats."
For this match, those with home general admission seats will need to have some seating gaps in certain areas, so we will implement a refund reception for those who wish to do so within the home general admission SOCIO selection.
