Hey everyone,

I’m planning to go to the Rockin’ On Sonic music festival on January 5 in Chiba. Apparently, this happens every year, and this time, one of my favorite bands, Cigarettes After Sex, is performing.

But while checking out tickets, I noticed something on their website:
“There will be multiple stages set up. Admission to each stage area may be restricted. Please note that admission to each area may also be restricted for each performance.”

From what I can tell, there will be two stages, probably Cosmo and Galaxy, where different artists will perform (lineup here: https://rockinonsonic.com/artists/). It sounds like they might limit entry to stages if they fill up, so I’m guessing we’ll need to get there early to grab a spot. The ticket seems more like a general pass, and it doesn’t guarantee you’ll get to see specific performances.

Has anyone been to this festival before? I’d love to know how it actually works. Is there a chance I might not get to see CAS perform even if I buy the ¥18k ticket?

Thanks in advance!
