Didn’t get an access code for the ticket selling of the Singapore shows of The Eras Tour? We’re here to guide you through the step-by-step process of the Lawson Ticket Exclusive Pre-Sale so you can finally see Taylor Swift in Japan!

We previously made a guide regarding the Japan ticket lottery system, which was exclusive to Japan residents, but the newest round of lottery is actually open to overseas fans. Here’s how:

Choose your ticket tier according to your budget.

Aside from the VIP packages, there are four ticket tiers available. There are additional fees on top of the ticket price: JPY 960 service charge per ticket, JPY 220 system usage fee per ticket, and JPY 330 electronic ticket service fee. So the total price per ticket are as follows:

• It’s Been A Long Time Coming VIP Package – JPY 122,800 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 124,310 (about PHP 48,900)
• Karma Is My Boyfriend VIP Package – JPY 72,800 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 74,310 (about PHP 29,200)
• I Remember It All Too Well VIP Package – JPY 52,800 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 54,310 (about PHP 21,400)
• SS SEAT – JPY 30,000 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 31,510 (about PHP 12,400)
• S SEAT – JPY 22,800 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 24,310 (about PHP 9,600)
• A SEAT – JPY 18,800 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 20,310 (about PHP 8,000)
• U-20 SEAT – JPY 8,800 + 960 service charge + 220 system usage fee + 330 electronic ticket service fee = JPY 10,310 (about PHP 4,100) (Note: This ticket tier is exclusive to fans 20 years and younger, which needs to be proven with a valid ID on the day of the concert)

Download the AnyPASS application.

You can get it on the App Store for iOS and on Google Play for Android. Make sure your smartphone is compatible with the app!

Create an AnyPASS account using your mobile phone number and other details. You will use this same phone number when registering for the lottery, so make sure all your information is correct!

Go to taylorswift-theerastour.jp

Scroll down and click the “Buy Ticket” button under the “Lawson Ticket Exclusive Pre-Sale(Lottery)”. You should be redirected to l-tike.com/concert/taylorswift/.

Scroll down the page and click on “English Ticketing Page.”

You should be redirected to another page: l-tike.com/st1/taylorswift1/Tt/Ttg010agreement/index. Read the terms and conditions, then tick the “Agree” box and click “Next”.

Read carefully the information outlined on the page. Everything’s there! Any question you might have is probably answered there.

Click the “Entry” or “Apply” button on your chosen ticket tier.

Just scroll down to the bottom and you’ll see the said button. There are two: one for VIP packages and another for the non-VIP seats (SS, S, A, and U-20). Once you select your chosen tier, you’ll be redirected to a new page.

Select your desired date, seat type, ticket type, and number of tickets.

Scroll down to the bottom and click the “Select Date” button.

Choose your desired date. Taylor has four shows in Tokyo: two on weekdays (Wednesday and Thursday), and two on weekends (Friday and Saturday).

For example, if you select the Friday show, this is the next thing you should see. Select your desired ticket tier or seat type among the four options.

Then input how many tickets you want to apply for and click the “Select” button.

You can also choose to “Add Preference”, which means you can select up to 3 ticket tier choices for the same performance date and time. In the example, we chose 2 ticket tier options. Once done, click “Enter”.

Input your information.

The site will ask for your email address and telephone number. The phone number you register here should be the same number of the smartphone device that will use AnyPASS. Don’t make a mistake, because you can’t make any corrections after!

Complete the item authentication.

Enter your name and chosen 4-character password. There’s a character limit to the name, so you will need to adjust accordingly. Click “Next”.

Read the questionnaire carefully and tick the “Agree” box on each one.

Properly answer the other questions, including the details on your phone number.

Review the information and reservation details you submitted, then proceed to the next step.

Input your payment details.

You’ll be asked for your credit card details. Input them. Then once done, click “Purchase” and you’re done!

Since credit card is the only option for overseas fans, you really do need to do this. We get you might be skeptical about this, but this is the Japanese ticketing system. The fans who registered for the exclusive AMEX Presale also submitted their card details, and those who won automatically had the ticket prices deducted from their cards.

Check your email inbox.

You should have an email similar to this:

When will results be released?

Ticket lottery application will close on Monday, 10 July 2023, 23:59 JST (which is 22:59 PHT). Meanwhile, results will be announced on Saturday, 15 July 2023, 12:00 JST (which is 11:00 PHT).

Whether you win or lose, you will receive an email confirming the results of your lottery application. If you win, you may also receive an email notifying you about the ticket payment from your card and from Lawson.

Will there be other lotteries?

So far, there have only been two lotteries announced for Taylor Swift’s shows in Japan.

But for other artists, they held several lotteries across a period of time, so there may be some chance for The Eras Tour, too. Just keep an eye on the tour website to keep yourself updated!
