My personal favourite for buying new Takanaka releases direct from Japan. Extremely reliable and quick. Easy to use website. Also highly regarded by many fans.

Buying Domestic Tour Tickets

Buying tickets to Takanaka's shows in Japan can be a little confusing. But its actually not too difficult.

Head over to the link below. Scroll down to the "Reservation here" button. On the next page translate it to your native language. Scroll down and click on the "Click here for overseas purchases (for those purchasing from outside Japan)" button. Now select the show you would like to attend. On the next page, select the quantity of tickets you would like and complete your purchase (please note that you can not pick your seat location). Then, once in Japan, you will need to go print out your tickets at a 7/11 store with a code you are given after completing your purchase.

Joining Official Fanclub

Takanaka's official fanclub is on an app called "FANICON". Whilst the fanclub is mainly targeted towards domestic fans, it's also useful for overseas fans. You get to see occasional photos and content that's not shared anywhere else. And you also get access to presale for his tours, including world tours. This is included with both silver and gold memberships. To join, check out the guide below that has step by step instructions. Then Join Fanclub.
