Sales of event and leisure facility tickets discounted under the Go To Event campaign has begun on Friday. The first eligible ticket of the campaign is a one day pass for Universal Studios Japan, which went on sale at 10am Friday on its official website.
Go To Event is part of the government's Go To campaign to stimulate demand, announced in late September. Under the campaign, tickets will be sold at a 20% discount, or a 20% discount coupon can be issued for the customer's next purchase. The upper limit for a discount is 2,000 yen per ticket.
In the case of USJ, tickets eligible for discount are one day passes for Nov. 4 to Dec. 31. A one day pass for holidays for an adult, normally 8,400, yen will be sold at 6,720, yen and for children aged 4 to11 years old, normal 5,700 yen will be reduced to 4,560, yen with all prices including tax.
The Economy, Trade and Industry Ministry plans to start offering discounts for tickets sold on ticket sales sites other than the USJ, and also expects tickets for sports viewing and concerts to go on sale.
