Japan Attraction Ticket Release Calendar
Japan trip planning · 20 ticket channels
When should you be ready to book?
Choose your visit date and time zone. Compare monthly ticket drops, rolling sales and lottery windows. Exact times appear only for verified rules; approximate and unresolved schedules stay clearly marked.
By Hidden Gems Japan Editorial Team · Sources reviewed October 5, 2026. Planning calculations, not live inventory or a reservation. Confirm each operator’s calendar and opening dates.
How to use your result
Japan uses JST (UTC+9) year-round. Your selected time zone is converted for the actual release instant, including daylight saving where applicable. A Japan morning drop can fall on the previous day where you live. Use a named time zone, not a fixed hour difference.
“Scheduled release time has passed” does not mean sold out. “Upcoming” does not confirm the attraction is open that day. For lotteries, check the application deadline, result notice and payment deadline. A reminder download is offered only for future releases with an exact verified time; import it into your calendar yourself.
Rules are withheld after 30 days without review. Future calculated dates project the currently documented policy, which operators may change. These are ordinary ticket channels, not an exhaustive catalogue of event, package or reseller releases.
