All advance tickets are digital, and will be sold on the official sales website and at travel agencies by reservation only, including the date and time of visit, pavilions, events, and exhibitions.
In addition to the opening ticket (4,000 yen for adults, 2,200 yen for junior high school students, and 1,000 yen for children), early term tickets (5,000 yen for adults, 3,000 yen for junior high school students, and 1,200 yen for children), there are also super early bird one-day tickets (6,000 yen for adults, 3,500 yen for junior high school students, and 1,500 yen for children) and full-year passes (30,000 yen for adults, 17,000 yen for junior high school students, and 7,000 yen for children).
Various problems surrounding the Osaka Expo have been frequently raised since this autumn. Problems such as construction delays, the application of overtime work, and the expansion of the budget due to the new government investment of 83.7 billion yen have piled up, and the word calling for the cancellation of the Expo has become a regular trend in X.
An official from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) I met at a study session attended by this reporter said, "There are many employees around me who wonder if there is any point in doing it."
