Next edition — Oct 10–12, 2026 (CONFIRMED)
Naniwa Danshi's ND⁵ arena tour plays Ecopa Arena, in a sports park outside Fukuroi, Shizuoka, five times from Saturday 10 to Monday 12 October 2026 — Sports Day makes it a three-day weekend. The nearest station, JR Aino, is a 15-minute walk and has almost no hotels, so fans sleep along the Tokaido Line in Kakegawa, Hamamatsu or Shizuoka and ride back after the show.
Goes first — Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 October. Each has an evening show (18:00 and 17:30), each falls inside the Kakegawa and Fukuroi festival weekend, and Sunday is the night before a holiday.
Act by — Now. General tickets for Ecopa were still on sale on 24 September, so new ticket-holders keep arriving right up to the weekend, and they are all after the same rooms.
On 24 September 2026, STARTO ENTERTAINMENT's tour page listed the Shizuoka general ticket (¥10,300, Ticket Pia) as on sale.

Sold out doesn't have to be the end. Plans change, and cancelled rooms come back to Rakuten Travel right up to the night itself — catching that chance is exactly what this vacancy-watching app is for.
Watch the rooms — free, no account
ND⁵ is Naniwa Danshi's 2026 arena tour: ten runs from Hokkaido in July to Chiba at the end of October. Ecopa is the second-to-last, five shows over Sports Day weekend, and it is the one stop that is not in a city. The arena sits in Shizuoka Prefecture's Ogasayama Sports Park, a 15-minute walk from a small station with no hotels to speak of.
So fans commute. The question is which way along the Tokaido Line you sleep, and which train gets you back after an evening show — and on this weekend Kakegawa and Fukuroi are holding their own festivals, closing roads in both towns. Rooms in the towns nearest the arena go first; what appears later is somebody else's cancellation, which is the chance a vacancy watch can find for you.
Ticket holders only. The fan-club lottery (¥9,800; members with a Japanese address) closed in June. General tickets (¥10,300) went on sale at Ticket Pia and were still on sale on 24 September. Fan-club members can also enter the official resale lottery on RELIEF Ticket — one application and one ticket per person. Doors open an hour before each start.
Watching for free — There is no free way to see it: the show is ticketed.
How hard it actually is — Ecopa is Shizuoka Prefecture's Ogasayama Sports Park, in the hills between Kakegawa and Fukuroi, and the area around its station has almost no hotels. The rooms are strung along the JR Tokaido Line: Kakegawa one stop east, a Shinkansen stop; Hamamatsu to the west, the biggest pool nearby; Shizuoka further east. On 9–11 October Kakegawa and Fukuroi also hold their autumn festivals, with roads closed in both town centres.
