What other travelers are saying about Fukuoka PayPay Dome

Fantastic experience here for a KPop Concert (Seventeen). Picking up tickets, purchasing merchandise & food, and entering the arena was, by far, the smoothest I have ever experienced at any venue. The sound was also great (we sat high up), and my friend & I had an amazing time. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone, for a concert or otherwise.

Got tickets via Klook! Was seated with many Koreans, mixed in with Japanese. The atmosphere is amazing, the baseball culture here is great, and the game was very fun. Overall would love to come again after finishing all NPB stadiums (been to 3/12 NPB stadiums)

First time attending a concert, decided it would be TWICE in Japan, only to be a bit disappointed you can't record it. Nevertheless the Mizuho PayPay Dome is spacey with options getting from either Bus or Train (with 15 minutes walk). The place did not disappoint. Food shops nearby are reasonably price as well.

Seeing a baseball game is a must if you're in Japan at the right time. The stadium was well organised, queues for food moved quickly and you could get drinks easily from your seat. The atmosphere is amazing!
