Fukuoka Convention Center (operator)

Only Lots 2 and 3 take bookings for accessible spaces, and the number of spaces is limited. You can book from 2 weeks to 2 days before the event day. The online booking form is paused for now, so the operator asks you to email inquiry@marinemesse.or.jp instead. The contact page is in Japanese.

Add your arrival time. You can only book an arrival from 1 hour before the doors open.

For private events such as trade shows and meetings, the organizer may book the whole lot. In that case, the operator asks you to contact the organizer.
