The JRA is opening racecourses for limited admission to the public for the Nakayama, Chukyo and Kokura Racemeetings from (Tue.) Jan. 5 to (Sun.) Jan. 24, 2021. Admission will be restricted to those persons who have purchased advance tickets for reserved seats.

In addition, we have newly set "Smart Seats" (reserved seats), which had been normally free to use for public, such as course-side chair or bench seats in the stands. For the time being, these seats are available for purchase by lottery through the "Reserved Seats Online Reservation" on the JRA website. We hope that you will take advantage of this service.
