Are you looking to place a support ad for your favorite artist in conjunction with a live concert at Edion Arena Osaka? With Oshi-Ad, you can place an ad in popular areas like Namba, Dotonbori, and Shinsaibashi from as little as 30,000 yen, in as fast as one week. Individual applications are also welcome. This article explains how to place a support ad around Edion Arena Osaka, covering costs, locations, and procedures.

Edion Arena Osaka Basic Information

Edion Arena Osaka, one of the largest arenas in Kansai, is frequently used for K-POP artist tours and idol group live performances. Located next to Namba and Dotonbori, two of Osaka's busiest areas, it attracts a large number of attendees and passersby, making it an effective area for support ads.

Locations to Place Support Ads Around Edion Arena Osaka

There are various advertising media available around the venue. You can reach not only fans attending the live performance but also fans on tour in Osaka and Dotonbori tourists.

1. Namba Area Digital Signage

This is the area closest to the venue. Numerous digital signages are installed both underground and above ground around Namba Station, directly reaching fans moving around before and after the live performance. There are also large signages near the main entrance of Edion Arena Osaka, which can expose your ad to attendees before they enter.

2. Dotonbori Area Outdoor Visions & Large Advertisements

Dotonbori, within a 10-minute walk from Edion Arena Osaka, is an area where many tourists, both domestic and international, gather. Multiple large outdoor visions are installed here, with a rich history of support ad placements. Combining your ad with a "photo spot" where touring fans take commemorative photos can lead to secondary spread on social media.

3. Shinsaibashi Area Signage & Posters

Shinsaibashi, adjacent to Namba to the north, is a commercial area with a concentration of shopping facilities catering to younger generations. Many fans visit Shinsaibashi in conjunction with live tours, and ads can also be placed on underground signages and posters. This area has high affinity with K-POP fans' movement patterns.

4. Umeda Area Signage

Umeda (JR Osaka Station, Hankyu, Hanshin, Subway Umeda), the gateway to Osaka, is the first area touring fans arriving in Osaka by Shinkansen or airplane typically visit. It is effective to use this area to promote your ad the day before or after the live performance rather than on the day itself. Large outdoor visions and underground signages in Umeda have high visibility and broad reach.

5. Ad Truck (Circulating in Osaka City)

Ad trucks circulate through multiple areas such as Namba, Dotonbori, Shinsaibashi, and Umeda, allowing them to reach a wide area with a single unit. Having them drive around the venue on the day of the live performance can also be a surprise for the gathered fans. They allow for vivid expressions using video and audio.

Estimated Cost of Support Ads

The following are reference price ranges for typical media. Actual prices vary depending on the display period, frame size, and time of year.

Small to medium digital signages are easiest for individuals to place. Oshi-Ad allows individuals to apply for these media from approximately 30,000 yen.

How to Place a Support Ad | Application Steps 1-5

Even if it's your first time placing a support ad, you can easily follow these steps.

STEP 1: Determine Purpose and Budget

First, decide "which live performance to coincide with," "whether to place it alone or crowdfund with other fans," and "what your budget is." Aiming for a display period of about one week, including the day of the live performance, is effective. With Oshi-Ad, you can place an ad in as little as one week, so it's not too late even after the live schedule is decided.

STEP 2: Choose Media and Area

Select the media based on your budget and purpose. If you want to "reach live attendees," signage around Namba is suitable. If you want to "reach all touring fans coming to Osaka," the Umeda area or an ad truck covering multiple areas is better. On the Oshi-Ad service page, you can view a list of available media.

STEP 3: Prepare Design

Oshi-Ad provides design templates, so you don't need specialized design knowledge. If you use official artist photos, please check the terms of use and guidelines. Oshi-Ad staff will assist you in confirming office guidelines.

STEP 4: Application and Payment

Select the media from the Oshi-Ad service page, fill in the necessary information, and apply. Credit card and bank transfer payments are accepted. Individual applications are possible, and a corporate account is not required.

STEP 5: Display and Receipt of Report Photos

After the display is complete, photos and videos of the ad will be provided. You can use them for sharing on social media or reporting to fans.
