04. Things to Do Before the Event (Download the App, Reserve a Coat Check, Prepare for Digital Payments)
●LuckyDining is cashless as a general rule
Since LuckyDining is cashless as a general rule, please make sure you have electronic money ready! However, in the event of a network outage, cash will be accepted, and cash can also be used for merchandise purchases, so it’s a good idea to have some cash on hand just in case.
● Seven Bank ATMs Available
Seven Bank ATMs will also be set up at LuckyPlaza this year! You can top up your balance on the day of the event, but since it may get crowded, we recommend topping up in advance whenever possible.◎
- Operating Hours
- 9:00 AM–6:00 PM daily
- Services Available for Top-Up
- You can top up electronic money (nanaco, Rakuten Edy, transit e-money) and smartphone payment services (au PAY, d-barai, PayPay, LINE Pay, and others).

*For those who have purchased a multi-day pass, we will provide all daily wristbands at once on the first day.
● Official App, Coat Check, and Priority Entry Reservations
After downloading the official app and registering your ID, you’ll be able to use the “Coat Check Reservation” and “Priority Entry to Front Areas” features.
The coat check reservation feature is a convenient way to book and pay in advance—as long as you do so by 6:00 PM the day before! For priority entry to the front area, you can apply for artists whose reservation limits haven’t been reached by 6:00 PM the day before. Be sure to take advantage of these services. Create your own personalized schedule and enjoy LuckyFes to the fullest!
*Tent setup is by “advance reservation only (fee required).” Please note that if you do not have a ticket, you will not be able to set up a tent even if you bring one on the day of the event.
Important Notes Regarding Use of the Tent Area
05. Heatstroke Prevention
LuckyFes has established five principles to prevent heatstroke.
- 1) All stages are located on grassy areas
- 2) The front areas of the RAINBOW, WING, and GARDEN stages will be rotated after each performance
- 3) All food, beverage, and rest areas are located in the shade of trees or under a canopy
- 4) We’ll set up plenty of drink stations, and there will also be a water play area for children within the park
- 5) First-aid stations are set up at four locations, primarily near the stages and at Lucky Plaza
It will be very hot on the day of the event, so please check the area map and prioritize your safety and comfort.
Other than that, let’s just have fun on the day of the event!!
