Amour du Chocolat 2024 Report [Do I need a reservation to enter? What should I buy? ] vol.1-Preparation-

Amour du Chocolat is a Valentine's Day event held at JR Nagoya Takashimaya.
I'm sure many of you are interested in events where not only are the chocolates delicious, but they are also lined up with cute packaging and gorgeous, artistic chocolates.

RonRon staff actually went to this festival, which boasts one of the largest sales in Japan♪

This time, we will be preparing in advance for an event that is sure to be very crowded ( Click here for the shopping section on the day)

Do your homework! What is the date and time specified admission ticket for Amour du Chocolat 2024? Checking the catalog is a must!

◆How to enter Amour du Chocolat 2024? Is it necessary to make advance reservations?

When you look at the Amour du Chocolat 2024 website , there are various things to keep in mind, such as how to enter, and at first you won't even be able to enter the venue without an admission ticket? I became worried.
However, if you read it carefully, you will be able to enter the main area on the 10th floor without having to make an advance reservation such as an admission ticket!

Advance reservations are required

  • I would like to get priority entry to the main area on the 10th floor before the store opens at 10am (for people who want to shop before it gets crowded. Audrey is not allowed to enter)
  • I would like to enter the most popular brand Audrey around 10:00 (you can continue shopping in the main area after shopping at Audrey)
  • I want to enter Snow Cheese on the 8th floor before 13:15.
  • I want to enter SNOWS on the 3rd floor before 16:15.
Only if!

In other words, you can freely enter the main area after 10 o'clock, and if you line up with Audrey, you can enter after 11 o'clock.

You cannot enter until 13:15 for Snow Cheese on the 8th floor and 16:15 for SNOWS on the 3rd floor without a "date and time designated ticket" (advance reservation/lottery accepted) (free entry is possible after each time slot, but the tickets are sold out) (It's very likely that you won't be able to purchase it.)

In addition, some products, such as Club Harie limited edition items, cannot be purchased unless you make a reservation in advance.

Perhaps because many people found it difficult to understand, there was also a Q&A on the official Instagram about how to enter ↓

◆Which brand do you buy?

There are many brands at the store, so I decided to decide in advance which brand I would like to buy.
Due to the huge crowds, it seems almost impossible to make a decision while window shopping on the day...

It's fun to check the digital catalog and introductory articles on the official website and worry about it ❤

As a result of the check,

  • Audrey ( Glaceon looks like a bouquet of dried strawberries and is too cute)
  • Maison Cacao (all of them look delicious, but the aromatic raw chocolate Muscat and mixed fruit seem to be especially popular on SNS)
  • Ash Chocolate World ( Premium box limited to JR Nagoya Takashimaya. I want to buy one made by a charismatic pastry chef)

These three stores are a must, if you can afford it.

I set my sights on purchasing one. All items can be purchased in the main area on the 10th floor.

↑Glaceon is too cute...

How long does it take to reserve a date and time entry ticket for Amour de Chocolat 2024? I actually made a reservation

◆Amour de Chocolat 2024 reservation method & reservation start date

Since I was planning to go shopping in the morning, I decided to reserve a date and time admission ticket for Audrey's 10 o'clock time slot.

Audrey is located at the end of the main area on the 10th floor, so I planned to shop at Audrey and then continue shopping in the main area.

Priority admission tickets for the 10 o'clock Audrey and the main area before the store opens (first-come, first-served basis*) can be reserved on the Ro-Ticket reservation page .
(As mentioned earlier, Audrey also does not require an admission ticket if you enter after 11:00. You will line up in the Audrey-only line on the 11th floor (or 10th floor depending on the crowd).)

*There is also a "numbered admission ticket" that can be entered by lottery for priority admission tickets before the main venue opens. The schedule and method for accepting reservations are different here. Please check the reservation page for details.

Also, all admission tickets are free !

Reservations are available for one week (Thursday to the following Wednesday), and reservations begin every Monday.
January 15th (Monday) was the first day to start accepting reservations for date and time admission tickets for the first week (1/18 to 1/24), but I accidentally forgot to check the reservation page at around 3 p.m. When I checked, the scheduled number of tickets for the first week had already been sold out at both Audrey and Main Venues💦

On the reservation start date for the second week (1/25-1/31), January 22nd (Monday), be sure to access the site at 10:00 a.m., when the reception starts, and successfully complete your reservation.
There are two admission tickets for Audrey, one for 10am and one for 10:30am, but I chose the 10am entrance.

◆Notes & scheduled number of tickets end time

Points to note when making a reservation

  • If you do not have a Law Ticket account, create one in advance (along with verifying your phone number)
  • Log in to your L-Ticket account before 10am.

2 points! After completing the above steps and accessing the reservation page at exactly 10am, I was able to make a reservation smoothly without ever being unable to connect to the site.

If you forget to log in or are late, a screen saying that the page is busy may appear and the page won't move, but that seemed to be resolved within a few minutes.

↑At around 10:03, I couldn't connect to the site due to heavy access, but it was resolved within a few minutes.

Reservations often end around 10:10.
I thought it would end on Saturday and Sunday, but that's not the case...
As far as I checked, Monday was the first day that the planned quantity was sold out! Why? That's surprising...

↑Around 10:15, reservations for Tuesday were still available, but reservations for Monday had ended at this time.

↑At around 10:16, there were still tickets left for Saturday.

↑Around 10:20, the scheduled number of tickets for the second week at both Audrey and Main venues has ended.

It's not an instant kill, so even if you forget to log in in advance and are late for the start, you can probably get an admission ticket for any day as long as you don't choose the date and time.

◆Don't forget to issue your ticket! There are surprisingly few places to install Loppi!

Once you make a reservation through a low-ticket ticket, that's not the end!
If you do not issue a ticket at Loppi within 3 days including the day you made the reservation (by 11pm on Wednesday if you made a reservation on Monday), your reservation will become invalid.

Until 23:00 on Wednesday, it's pretty quick 💦

Loppi locations are Lawson and Ministop. There is a 100 yen Lawson near my office, but unfortunately there is no Loppi installed at the 100 yen Lawson 😢
Surprisingly, there was no Lawson or Ministop nearby, so I had a hard time.

↑You cannot enter without this ticket!

According to a survey, there are approximately 630 Lawson stores in Aichi Prefecture, excluding 100 yen Lawson, and 187 Ministop stores, which are considerably fewer than 7-Eleven's 1,054 stores and FamilyMart's 1,595 stores. . . It's true that the only convenience stores I usually use are FamilyMart or 7-Eleven!

Once you have successfully completed your preparations, all that is left to do is welcome the shopping day!
Check out the catalog and store map on the official website, and wait with excitement for the day ✨
