The information on this page is based off text written originally in Japanese on the Lawson Ticket website, and/or the hololive SUPER EXPO 2023 & 4th fes. website, as well as from personal experience in the Japanese ticketing process for both this event and other events in the past. Take everything on this page as a guide only, and be aware that situations that are not covered in this page may arise.

The process of obtaining tickets to the EXPO & fes is relatively simple if you are currently residing in Japan. However, for us foreigners, it’s a rather tedious process.
The ticketing site that EXPO & fes uses is ローチケ (hereby referred to as L-tike / Lawson Ticket), and the ticketing process can be split into three parts. In this page, I’ll mainly be covering the process of obtaining a ticket through the Advance Lottery (先行抽選) method, while the other method, Normal Sales (一般販売) is covered briefly in this section.
