Photo: Ming He \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything below is from the operator&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/bandainamco-am.co.jp\/official_shop\/jojo\/osaka\/news\/information\/notice_20261028.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">entry notice of 28 October 2026<\/a> \ubc0f <a href=\"https:\/\/livepocket.jp\/t\/2mqy8\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Livepocket booking page<\/a>. Both are Japanese only. Here&#8217;s the English version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 1 \u2014 Get a Livepocket account.<\/strong> Livepocket is a Japanese ticketing site. Sign up before you apply. Its help pages cover mobile-number authentication, so have your phone to hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 2 \u2014 Apply between 28 October (11:00) and 15 November 2026 (23:59 JST).<\/strong> Open the <a href=\"https:\/\/livepocket.jp\/t\/2mqy8\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grand Opening booking page<\/a>, pick a date between 4 and 13 December, and request 1 or 2 tickets. One applicant gets one slot of up to two tickets. You can&#8217;t add a companion later, and you can&#8217;t change the booking once it&#8217;s done. Booking is free; no card is charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3 \u2014 Check results from 19 November, around 12:00 JST.<\/strong> Winners can view the ticket in Livepocket&#8217;s My Page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 4 \u2014 Lost? Try the leftovers from 21 November.<\/strong> Unclaimed slots go on sale first come, first served, until 19:00 on each entry day. The operator&#8217;s notice and 28 October press release say 11:00 JST; the Livepocket page says 12:00. Be online at 11:00 to be safe. Leftovers may not exist for every date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 5 \u2014 Turn up at your time, together.<\/strong> Go to the shop entrance on LUCUA SOUTH 10F at or before the time on your ticket. Queues run in booking-number order; arrive late and you go to the back. If you booked for two, both of you arrive together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 6 \u2014 Show the live QR code, plus ID if asked.<\/strong> Screenshots may be refused. Staff can ask for a <strong>passport or My Number Card<\/strong> and ask you questions. The notice is blunt: if you can&#8217;t talk to staff or answer yourself, you can be turned away. Suspected resellers are refused, and tickets can&#8217;t be transferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>No ticket?<\/strong> Same-day tickets are not sold at the shop for 4\u201313 December. Rules from Monday 14 December are TBA \u2014 we&#8217;ll update this page when they land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 Japan Pro Tip: Apply for a weekday (7\u201311 December) rather than the opening weekend. Want in a day early? A separate pre-opening invitation lottery for Thursday 3 December is open on Livepocket until 23:59 on Sunday 8 November: one ticket per person, results from about 12:00 on 10 November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The LUCUA floor question:<\/strong> LUCUA SOUTH says its 10F\u201313F &#8220;LUCUA Characters World&#8221; will run on lottery or first-come entry tickets &#8220;for the time being&#8221; after it opens on 24 November (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucua.jp\/special\/south-open\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LUCUA SOUTH<\/a>).
