As always, a week before the shows BABYMETAL has shared the official venue information for their Japan shows. They share the venue map, entry times, merch booth times, will call times, rules, and more. Read it all below.
Information about the Osaka-Jo Hall shows will be shared a week before the show.
EDIT: For those going to the first show (on the 16th), note that the Yamanote Line (loop) will be suspended between Osaki and Ueno. You would have to take other lines or go all the way around.
The Keihin Tohoku Line is a good alternative, though do note that it will also be suspended between Shinagawa and Tamachi.
This is notable as most going from Tokyo to SSA go via Ueno.
Note time change for 16th: SPECIAL GUEST “BRING ME THE HORIZON” at the Saitama Super Arena performance on November 16, 2019 (Saturday) will start at “18:00” (previously 18:30) due to production reasons.

Entry number (on ticket) from M1 to M1500 ⇒ 15 minutes after the opening time
Entry number (on ticket) from M1501 or later ⇒ 35 minutes after the opening time
- You will be waiting outside, so be prepared for rain. With that said, you cannot bring an umbrella inside. I have seen in other shows, people leave them and you can pick them up (from the floor) after exiting.
- They will have a [HAPPY MOSH’SH PIT] and [Woman’s only area] in the MOSH’SH PIT. The [HAPPY MOSH’SH PIT] is an area for people who do not wish to mosh. Note that both these areas tend to be at the far back.
