Review for: Entry Ticket

The line to gain entry to the show was up to 1 hour. The venue hall was cramped and over filled with people. The Klook giveaway wheel was the best thing!

Waste of time. Not at all what I expected, spent more time in line to get into the venue then actually walking around the exhibition. Wouldn't recommend if it's run again.

Did not know what to expect but from the instant we got in line to enter the event, we knew we were going to get an experience to remember, from crazy outfits to the food samples, we instantly felt like we were in Tokyo. Crowd was pushy, impatient and eager to see everything, we saw what we wanted and left, overall a great experience

Not a great event. very crowded in a very small space. not able to see much and not a lot of exhibits.

Review for: Entry Ticket

It was unfortunately poorly organised and held in a venue that could not hold the capacity of people. Ended up waiting in a lone line for around 45mins-1hr just to spend around 10 minutes within the venue. Hopefully next time they hold this event they will limit/reduce the amount of people or have a larger venue

This was such a fun expo and I look forward to attending the next one! I loved that you could take unlimited chances at spinning the wheel. Due to its popularity, the expo was packed, I would say this wasn’t the best venue for the expo to be held at but I loved the festivities, content and information nonetheless. would go again 10/10 especially before going to Japan or in the early stages/middle of planning your itenerary!
