–Additional disinfectant alcohol sprays will be available for attendees to use at every venue. We invite every attendee to disinfect their hands on entering each venue.
–NJPW encourages attendees to wear surgical masks at live events where at all possible. Staff members may also be wearing masks. We also encourage fans to thoroughly wash their hands and gargle.
–Please leave the venue if you become unwell during an event. Be aware that staff may advise attendees to leave if they seem unwell.
–Meet and greets/autograph signings at events will be canceled until further notice. We appreciate your understanding.
–Refunds will be made available for tickets purchased to March events. While events will all proceed as planned, we appreciate fans’ concern, and would like to ask ticket holders not to attend if they feel at all unwell.
