On February 25, 2024, tickets for the first keyboard exhibition and sale event in Japan, Keyboard Market Tokyo (a.k.a. Key Kett), were sold out.
The ticket sales website, Livepocket ticket, shows that the event is indeed sold out.
According to the Management Office, “Due to the capacity of the venue, it is difficult to sell any more additional tickets,” so there will be no additional sales or same-day ticket sales.

The total number of tickets was 1,000, the official X of the Management Office announced.
The capacity of the 7th floor of the Taito Kan, the venue, is listed as up to 600 people, a figure that makes sense given the fluidity of the clientele using the venue.
Keyket is expected to become a keyboard version of Comiket, an event characterized by more booths selling individually designed keyboards than keyboard sales manufacturers.
The fact that these tickets are sold out is indicative of the high level of enthusiasm in the do-it-yourself keyboard community.
