Good to know
Tickets for events like this are typically sold through eplus.jp or pia.jp, both of which accept foreign credit cards; convenience store pickup at Lawson or FamilyMart is the most reliable option for visitors without a Japanese delivery address. SEC is a smaller live music venue in Fukuoka, so capacity is likely limited — purchasing tickets in advance is strongly recommended as shows at this scale can sell out quickly. Arrive at least 30 minutes before doors open to collect your ticket and find a good position. Cash is advisable for merchandise and drinks at the venue, as smaller venues in Japan often have limited card payment options.
