Osaka World Expo 2025 Guide: Part 1: Preparing

Osaka World Expo 2025 Guide Revealed P1 Advance Preparation

The main purpose of this 8-day, 7-night Osaka trip was definitely not Osaka World Expo 2025. I had already bought tickets for Osaka World Expo 2025 on trip.com in early May. I was really looking forward to this World Expo. It was rare for it to be held in Asia. It only took 2.5 hours to fly to Osaka, so I definitely wanted to see everything. So before I went, I set a goal of visiting at least 10 venues. The ones I wanted to visit the most were Tech World, Italy, France, and Japan. Let’s take a look at the advance preparations and the actual itinerary for the day!

🌟Advance Preparation:
1. Advance Lottery System:
(1) 2-month advance lottery: You can select your favorite venue 2 months in advance and enter the lottery. This has the highest chance of winning, so you must seize the opportunity!
(2) 7-day advance lottery: You can select your favorite venue 7 days in advance and enter the lottery. (3) The lottery will be held 3 days in advance. The first-come, first-served system is adopted. Tickets must be booked at 00:00 in the evening of Japan time zone 3 days in advance.

2. Items to prepare:

(1) Sun protection items: Because there is basically no other shelter except the main roof, each venue requires queuing in principle, which can be long or short. All sun protection items must be prepared, such as sunscreen, sun protection jackets, etc.

(2) Hydration equipment: Don’t think that you don’t need to prepare a water bottle just because there are drinks in the park. Vending machines will sell out around 2 pm. The queues in shops and restaurants may last for a long time. It is better to prepare a water container to fill with water!

(3) Rain gear, raincoat.

(4) Small bench or folding chair.

(5) Light snacks: Please be sure to buy them in advance. The wait time for checkout at 711 in the park is more than 30 minutes, and it may be sold out!

🕰️ Business hours: 9:00-22:00. 📍Address: Yumezu-naka 1-chome, Konohana-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, 〒554-8089
💰Average Cost: 5,000 to 50,000 yen.
