I will be visiting USJ around December. I noticed there are quite a few posts here listing tickets for sales. How legitimate are they? There's risks to everything however is there any best practises that can be followed to minimize the risk of buying fake tickets?
I accidentally bought 9 tickets on the wrong date for my group of friends.
It’s a type D ticket thats valid for 3 months, Valid from 31 Dec 2024 to 30 Mar 2025.
Official price is currently 10400 jpy for adult. I am willing to let go of the tickets at 8000 jpy per ticket.
Tickets are QR codes, in pdf format, that can be directly scanned at the entrance gate to enter.
Price can be negotiable if you purchase more tickets!
Please DM if interested!
I accept paypal.
I happen to be in Osaka during the most busy time for Universal Studios.
Do you think it is worth going? I don't want to be in 2 hour lines and shuffling tiny steps to move forward the whole time.
I accidently bought 2 tickets for the wrong date. Its a type A ticket thats valid for 3 months and 2 tickets for Nintendo world ( 15:00 timelsot) for november 8th. Please DM if you're interested.

Hello everyone! I really want to visit USJ because they have halloween theme. Is there anyone that want to go with me tomorrow?
There will be two of us visiting in Nov. I will likely just have a small sling/side bag my companion will likely have a small back pack.
Do we need to store these things in a locker or are we all good to carry them around with us throughout the day from attraction to attraction? I'm just not sure what we would do with our bags (or any merch we buy along the way) when we go on rides etc.
Sorry if this is a bit of a dumb question, I've never been to a theme park before.
Plans changed and my group wont be able to go. I have 6 adult D Ticket Price passes for 10.28.2024 - 1.25.2024. Selling for 50 USD per ticket. I have Venmo, Zelle, Paypal, and ApplePay. DM me if you're interested.
Anyone know if the annual pass will allow me entry into super nintendo land?
looking to buy it if it does allow this
i read their website says it's a lottery? I am travelling from Hong Kong to Osaka for New Year's and would love to experience this
do you recommend and which one??
How has the stock been at USJ lately? I heard last week that Gengar sold out. Has it been restocked or is it gone for good?
Hey guys, Last week I was in usj and bought the gred mario world pullover in L. Sadly it is to small and I'm in tokyo already. Is someone in usj and can bring me an xl super mario world pullover in grey to tokyo :) would pay extra ;)
Hello!
I made a mistake and bought two Type E tickets valid from October 20, 2024 to January 17, 2025.
Would anyone want to buy the tickets? I bought it for 72 USD per ticket but I'm willing to sell it for 50 USD each.
Please DM me if interested!
(edit 10/27/2024) This is still open by the way! Please get my tickets 😭 I already have the tickets with the QR code on them that you can use to enter the park directly.
I went 3 times (2 times weekend and one time on a Thursday (last Thursday, so no school break) this year already and checked the ride times on the app some other days for fun and to my surprise ride lines seem to be nearly identical. I can see that the number of people in the park are lower on the week, but it doesn’t mean the ride lines are shorter.
I really think they save money under the week to reduce the capacity of the rides. For example at the Minion ride, they normally have 3 lines (I think each one for a separate big room), but under the week only 2 lines were used, so I assume one room was not being used.
I don’t know what they do for roller coasters, but I have the feeling the the lines are also moving slower.
I think it’s not a phenomenon only for USJ, but I recognized that ride lines in Disneyland also stay nearly identical on weekends.
Trying to save a bit of scratch and avoid spending 50,000yen on express passes for the timed entry. lol
We’re going the Thursday between the Halloween and Christmas events to avoid the most people.
It’ll be me, the wife, a 3 year old, a 1 year old, and grandma. We’re staying at one of the universal hotels. Just trying to make it easiest on the whole family.
Just curious how early I need to line up to use the app inside the park and reserve a time. Also, you think there will be any issues with me lining up and them joining me before opening?
I went today and what a cashgrab this is. So busy you can barely do any rides. All queues are over 2 hours. It's pretty hot today and you have to wait pretty long to even get a drink from a vending machine. They should be ashamed of allowing so many people to enter the park.
Hello all!
I've been trying to buy one of the express passes that is only available on the Japanese USJ website, and I've tried multiple credit cards and none of them have worked. I've tried 2 mastercards and 4 visa cards from 3 different issuing banks, and I keep getting the same payment error. I previously successfully used one of the visa cards to buy my entry tickets from the English USJ website so I'm not sure why I can't get any cards to work on the Japanese site.
The errors I get in Japanese are:
エラーメッセージが表示され、お手持ちのクレジットカードが利用できない場合は、
などが考えられますので、クレジットカード会社へお問合わせください
and
【エラーコード:A(TFJ14V529751)】
お客様のクレジットカードは現在利用することができません。別のクレジットカードを利用する、または支払方法「コンビニ支払い」をご利用ください。[0256]
The English versions of these errors are:
and
[Error code: A (TFJ14V529751)]
Your credit card cannot be used at this time. Please use a different credit card or use the "Convenience store payment" payment method. [0256]
I've tried searching for any help with this error but not found anything that has helped me get past it. Has anyone here encountered this and were they able to get past it? I can try again tomorrow and try contacting my bank(s), but it seems weird it hasn't worked with cards from 3 different banks.
Thanks!
Hello Guys,
I was planning to visit USJ on 25th/26th December and I am looking to buy an express pass or VIP Group tour for the three of us (me, my wife and my 6yo son). I had a few questions,
are the express pass prices dynamic for a particular day? As in would the price increase for the 26th December as more tickets are sold?
Do the express pass tickets ever get sold out?
Is there anyway now that I can buy the vip Group tour, cos I can't seem to find it on usj website anymore.
Thanks in advance.
My 11 year old loves all things RE but it looks like USJ has an age rerequirement of 12 yo. Will they check his passport before we try to get timed entry tickets?

Trying my luck here! I accidentally bought the wrong tickets by one day 😫 I have 2 x one day pass tickets available from the 16/12/2024 - 15/03/2025 type C. From my research I cannot change or move them, I need tickets for the 15/12/2024. If anyone would like to buy them, $80 each, I paid $100. I unable to go between the ticket dates and I really don’t want them to go to waste. Thanks :)
Is it better to visit Harry Potter at day or night? Planning to buy express pass.
Will there be a parade in December? What time does it usually starts? Is it worth it?
Is it possible to change the express time entry timed entry packages that you choose in Klook?
Hey everyone, I purchased the tickets for USJ and I don’t know how to add them to the USJ app, I looked everywhere but can’t seem to find an option. Can someone help me with this please? Would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance!
Hi, I just came back from USJ and am considering deleting the app but I am worried it will delete the progress on Super Nintendo World. Where is this data saved, on the phone(Android) or the band? I don't remember if I had to sign up for an account or not.
Thanks
In response to my email to USJ customer service about if there is any update to when Donkey Kong Country will open by December 2024..
I’ll be going in Mid December and at this point even that seems uncertain.
I wonder if Xpress passes will update to include the rides on DK country if it opens imminently and what happens to those xpress passes that were purchased for December prior to DK country being announced?
So many questions so few answers.
