How to Get Tickets For Ji-Beer Fest Kofu 2018

The event uses tickets for drinks system though it is possible to buy tickets on the day. You can buy an advance book of five tickets and original glass (70ml) for ¥1,500 from the 5th June at the following places until Ju:

  • Lawson’s using the L-Code 34505
  • Seven Eleven using the code 063-591

The same package on the day will cost ¥1,700 yen, while a book of five tickets for drinks will cost ¥1,000 and if you want just the original glass then it will set you back ¥700. Moreover, there are also some strange deals going on – people wearing a yukata or kimono also get ¥200 off a book of five tickets on any day, and students with valid ID also get ¥100 off a book of five tickets on any day. There isn’t any information if these deals stack up though so don’t blame us if you try and nothing happens.
