List of popular venues
From Haropedia
This is an incomplete list of the major venues that Hello!Project (and many other acts) use throughout Japan. Due to the small size of Japan, it is quite possible to stay in one city and attend pokerraume in neighbouring areas to save costs. For more information on the layout of the regions and prefectures of Japan, Wikipedia has an excellent article. Each prefecture can contain many stages, live halls and arena/stadiums.
Note: as concerts are often held in the capital city of a prefecture, if the city has a different name, it will be in brackets beside the prefecture's name.
All venues are linked to the article with more details and an english title. The Japanese name/writing used on the artist schedule page is written in brackets next to the article link.
