Performances are held at four main venues with paid seating and/or
standing areas in the morning and evening of October 7th and in the
mornings of October 8th and 9th. The four main stages are Suwa Shrine,
Otabisho, Yasaka Shrine, and Kokaido. See the link section below for
more ticket information in Japanese.
At some of the main venues, it is possible to take a glimpse at the
performances without a ticket, but it gets crowded and people arrive
early to reserve the best spots.
