Hayato Sumino Piano Recital Tickets Hit Resale Market Amidst High Demand – A Guide for Fans
Yokohama, Japan – November 4, 2025 – Fans who missed out on the initial ticket sales for pianist Hayato Sumino’s “Klassik Arena” recital at the K Arena Yokohama on November 29th now have a second chance. Organizers have announced that tickets are eligible for resale through “Ticketpla Trade,” a service operated by Ticketplus (formerly Tixplus), offering a lifeline to those with unavoidable scheduling conflicts and a coveted opportunity for others. This is breaking news for classical music enthusiasts, and we’re here to help you navigate the process.
What You Need to Know About Ticket Resale for the Sumino Recital
The resale platform, Ticketpla Trade, provides a secure (though not risk-free – more on that later) way for ticket holders unable to attend to sell their tickets to eager fans. The listing period runs from November 4th (12:00 noon JST) to November 21st (11:59 a.m. JST). Crucially, resale is conducted via a lottery system, meaning listing a ticket doesn’t guarantee a sale. Successful purchasers will receive their tickets through the Ticketura app.
This isn’t a cancellation or refund service; it’s a fan-to-fan marketplace. The organizers emphasize that the process is at your own risk, and they won’t be liable for any issues arising from transactions. This is a common practice in high-demand events, and understanding the risks is paramount.
Navigating Ticketpla Trade: A Step-by-Step Guide
Accessing the resale platform is done through the E+ application history page: https://eplus.jp/jyoukyou/. A detailed operation guide is also available: https://eplus.jp/sf/guide/tixplus-trade. Be sure to carefully review the details regarding listing/purchase deadlines and associated service fees. The direct link to the resale application is: https://trade.tixplus.jp/artists/tour/13187.
Important Note: Not all ticket purchase types are eligible for resale. Those purchased through “8810 limited fastest advance,” “Fastest advance limited to 8810,” and similar pre-sale options *are* eligible, while others are not. Check the full list on the E+ website to confirm your tickets qualify.
Ticket Types and Resale Restrictions
You can choose to sell all your purchased tickets or just those for companions. For example, if you bought two S seats, you can sell one or both. However, specific rules apply to different seat types. S seats, A seats, and welcome seats can be sold individually or as a pair. Family seats, however, *must* be sold as a complete set – no splitting allowed. Also, tickets cannot be listed to the general public; resale is limited to existing E+ users.
Tech Check: Ensuring a Smooth Resale Experience
The Ticketura app is essential for receiving resale tickets, and compatibility is key. It works on most smartphones with an internet connection and a 090/080/070 phone number. However, older devices like feature phones, “Rakuraku smartphones,” tablets (iPads), and iPod Touches are not supported. Check the compatibility list before attempting to participate to avoid last-minute headaches. An active SMS contract is also required.
Staying Informed: Customer Support Resources
For any questions or issues regarding Ticketpla Trade, Tixplus customer support is available on weekdays from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. JST via their online contact form.
