How ramen tickets work
Like most ramen festivals in Japan, you do not pay at each stall. You buy ramen tickets first and hand one over for each bowl.
- One ticket gets you one bowl of ramen.
- Advance tickets and same-day tickets are the same price: ¥1,000 per ticket, tax included.
- Same-day tickets are sold at the venue.
- You do not need a ticket just to walk around, watch the stage or browse.
Since the price does not change, buying in advance is really about convenience: you arrive with tickets already in hand. If you are still deciding how many bowls you can manage, a same-day ticket keeps you flexible.
Where to buy advance tickets
Advance tickets are on sale now through three channels.
| Where | How | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 7-Eleven stores | Buy in store with Seven Code 117-365 | Ask staff or use the store terminal |
| Seven Ticket (online) | Reserve on the Seven Ticket page | Pick up the tickets at a 7-Eleven store |
| Yamada Denki Tecc LIFE SELECT Kasukabe Main Store | Registers on each floor | Yamada Points accepted at the 1F main register. Store sales planned until Nov 3 |
If you already collect Yamada Points from buying electronics, the 1F main register at the venue store is the one place you can turn them into ramen tickets. Point balances and rules vary by account, so check with staff at the register.
Not sure which card to use for small purchases like this? Our guide to credit cards in Japan for foreigners covers which one to get first. Payment methods accepted at the venue itself are not listed in the announcement, so check the official site.
What else is on besides ramen
The main draw is ramen from well-known shops around Japan, each with its own regional style. Around the food, there is more aimed at families:
- Stage events
- Festival-style stalls and games (ennichi)
- Merchandise sales
The press release does not name the participating shops or the stage program. The official event website is where the organizer posts details and updates.
This autumn series has already stopped in Hitachi (Ibaraki) in September and Takasaki (Gunma) in October. Kasukabe is the final round, so if you missed the earlier ones, this is the last chance this autumn.
