Before you can purchase tickets, you must register for an ExpoID on the official Expo 2025 webpage using either an email address or an accepted account like Facebook, Line or Google.
Step 2: Verify your ExpoID account
Next, you'll verify the account you just created. There are three options to choose from: email authentication, biometric/passcode or via a third-party authenticator app like Google Authenticator. Follow the Expo 2025 website's instructions for whichever method you select.
You'll have to verify your account using your selected verification method every time you log in, but you can change your verification method to one of the other two types in your Settings at any time.
Step 3: Book tickets
This part's pretty straightforward. Select the date and time you'd like to attend the Expo.
After you've selected your preferred date and time, you'll select the type of ticket you want. There are a myriad of options to choose from, starting from ¥4,000 for an adult Opening Tick
