How to Place Fan Advertisements Around Nagoya Gaishi Hall [2026 Edition]: Costs, Media, and Application Procedures

Significance of Oshi-Katsu Advertising Around Nagoya Gaishi Hall (Kuroko-kun Hall)

Nagoya Gaishi Hall is a major arena representing Aichi Prefecture, located in Minami-ku, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture. Its official name is "Kuroko-kun Hall" (formerly Nagoya Gaishi Hall) within "Nippon Gaishi Sports Plaza," with a capacity of approximately 10,000 people. It is one of the largest music venues in the Tokai region, hosting numerous large-scale live performances, from K-POP idols to national J-POP artists.

It was renovated and reopened in February 2026, and from April of the same year, it was given the nickname "Kuroko-kun Hall" due to a change in the operating company's name. As fans have long affectionately known it as "Gaishi Hall," many still refer to it as "Nagoya Gaishi Hall."

The closest station is Kasadera Station on the JR Tokaido Main Line, about a 3-minute walk away. It takes about 11 minutes by train from Nagoya Station, with no transfers. On live performance days, the flow of fans from Kasadera Station to the venue is concentrated, so support advertisements in the surrounding area and the Nagoya, Kanayama, and Sakae areas are highly effective in terms of visibility.

Placing support advertisements in conjunction with live performances and concerts not only reaches the eyes of attending fans but also spreads online as they are photographed and shared on social media. For fans who want to "make their bias's Nagoya performance exciting" or "unite with fellow fans," support advertising is one of the best forms of expression.

Main Live Performances and Events Held at Nagoya Gaishi Hall

Nagoya Gaishi Hall is a special venue for fans in the Tokai area. Popular domestic and international artists often choose it as the Nagoya performance venue for their national tours, and various genres of live performances are held throughout the year.

• K-POP idol group arena tours (BTS, TWICE, aespa, etc., have performed here in the past)
• Domestic J-POP artist national tour Nagoya performances
• Johnny's and Stardust group idol performances
• Band solo concerts and festival-style concerts
• Sports competitions and martial arts events (volleyball, martial arts, etc.)

Performances by K-POP artists, in particular, are deeply intertwined with the culture of support advertising (Saengil advertising), and there is a growing demand from fans who want to place support advertisements in conjunction with Nagoya performances. This is an opportunity to convey your feelings to fellow fans gathered in the area for your bias's Nagoya live performance.

Types and Costs of Support Advertising

There are various media for support advertising. It is important to choose according to your purpose, budget, and display period. Below is a summary of the characteristics and estimated costs of typical media.

For individuals placing advertisements, starting with digital signage is recommended. It is relatively inexpensive and easy to apply for, with a short lead time, so it is often possible to make it even if you start after the live performance dates are set.

Display Spots Around Nagoya Gaishi Hall

The area around Kasadera Station, the closest station to Nagoya Gaishi Hall (Kuroko-kun Hall), is residential, so there are not many large signage media. It is effective to place support advertisements in major areas within Nagoya City where many fans traveling from afar gather.

Kanayama Area (Kanayama Station)

Kanayama Station is used by many fans as a transfer station on their way to the venue. It is Nagoya's second major station, where JR, Meitetsu, and subway lines converge, used by over 440,000 people daily. A large digital signage is installed at the north exit of Kanayama Station, making it an ideal location to deliver advertisements to fans transferring on the day of the live performance.

Sakae Area (Around Sakae Station)

In the Sakae area, Nagoya's largest entertainment district, multiple outdoor vision screens and underground mall signages are installed. The Sakae Morichika Vision in Mori no Chika-gai (directly connected to Meitetsu Sakae-machi Station and Subway Sakae Station) is an indoor type, unaffected by weather, and reaches the eyes of fans visiting for shopping and dining before and after live performances. Additionally, Hisaya Central Vision at Hisaya-odori Park is a popular spot for social media-worthy advertisements, as it is easy to photograph in front of the plaza.

Nagoya Station Area

Nagoya Station, where Shinkansen, conventional lines, and subway lines converge, is a hub that fans traveling from afar always pass through. There are numerous signage media within the station and in surrounding commercial buildings, with a proven track record as a place for Nagoya performance announcements and support advertisements.

Kasadera Station / In front of the venue

Ad trucks and flower stands are effective around Kasadera Station, which is the final access route to the venue, and near the venue entrance. This is suitable for fans who want to make an impact, as everyone attending passes through these areas.

How to Place Support Advertising: 5 Steps

We explain the application process in 5 steps so that even those who are new to placing support advertisements can proceed with confidence.

Step 1: Determine Objective and Budget

First, clarify "for whom, when, and for what purpose you are placing the advertisement." The timing of display and choice of media will vary depending on whether it's for a birthday celebration or to support a live performance. For individuals, the budget starts from approximately 30,000 yen; if multiple people use crowdfunding, you can even aim for larger media.

Step 2: Choose Media and Display Location

In the Nagoya area, you can choose from digital signage around Kanayama, Sakae, and Nagoya Station, the Hisaya-odori Park outdoor vision, ad trucks, and more. If you want to reach attending fans, areas along their movement path are recommended. If you aim for social media impact, a vision screen in front of a plaza is recommended.

Step 3: Check Agency Guidelines

Before placing a support advertisement, always check the "Guidelines for Advertising Activities by Fans" from the agency your bias belongs to. Agencies may have restrictions on the images and wording that can be used. If you are unsure, you can consult the Oshi-Ad support team.

Step 4: Prepare Design

Prepare images and text to be used in the advertisement. Select materials for photos that comply with the guidelines and be mindful of copyright. A simple, highly visible design is more likely to catch the eye of passing fans.

Step 5: Application, Payment, and Display

Apply through the service that provides the media, complete payment and data submission, and the display will begin. With Oshi-Ad, display is possible in as little as one week. Be sure to photograph the display on-site and share it on social media.
