This guide is for anyone flying to Tokorozawa, Saitama for a concert or baseball game, and it explains how to get from Haneda and Narita Airports to Belluna Dome. We compare trains, NearMe Spots, and NearMe (taxi), and also cover two things that often trip up out-of-town visitors: getting between your hotel and the airport, and getting home after the show.

Belluna Dome was ranked No. 1 in one baseball outlet’s “hardest home ballparks to travel to” ranking. It is far from the major terminal stations, and even the fastest route from Haneda Airport to the ballpark takes about 120 minutes. On the way home, crowds build up at Seibu-Kyujomae Station, and entry restrictions are said to be common.

In short, the train is the standard way to reach the ballpark. For getting between your hotel and Haneda Airport, using a NearMe Spot with no transfers will lighten the load of carrying your luggage. With NearMe, taxis are 20% off when booked in advance and up to 50% off when shared. They are a good option if you have a lot of luggage or want to avoid the post-show crowds.

Belluna Dome Basics

Belluna Dome is a multipurpose stadium in Tokorozawa, Saitama Prefecture. It is the home of the Saitama Seibu Lions and also hosts concerts and other events. It was formerly known as Seibu Dome, and now goes by the name Belluna Dome under a naming-rights deal.

• Address: 2135 Kamiyamaguchi, Tokorozawa, Saitama
• Nearest station: Seibu-Kyujomae Station on the Seibu Sayama Line (about a 5-minute walk)

By car, it is about 20 minutes from the Iruma IC on the Ken-O Expressway, or about 30 minutes from the Tokorozawa IC on the Kan-Etsu Expressway. There is parking, but it may not be available for some events. Be sure to check in advance.

How to Get from Haneda and Narita Airports to Belluna Dome

The Standard Train Route

The standard route to the ballpark is as follows.

1. Head from the airport to Ikebukuro Station.
2. From Ikebukuro Station, take the Seibu Ikebukuro Line to Nishi-Tokorozawa Station.
3. At Nishi-Tokorozawa Station, transfer to the Seibu Sayama Line and get off at Seibu-Kyujomae Station.
4. From the station, it is about a 5-minute walk to the dome.

On game and event days, through trains (the Stadium Express) run from Ikebukuro Station to Seibu-Kyujomae Station with no transfers. Check Seibu Railway’s official website for operating days and times.

Including the Seibu Line from Ikebukuro Station, the fastest trip from Haneda Airport to Seibu-Kyujomae Station is about 120 minutes. The route involves many transfers and is complicated, so allow plenty of time.

From Narita Airport as well, you will need to connect across several lines. Use a transit app to check the latest route on the day you travel.

From Yokohama, Shibuya, and Shin-Kiba

Using a train that runs through onto the Seibu Line, you may be able to reach the Seibu Line without transferring at Ikebukuro. Service varies by time of day and day of the week. Check with a transit app.

Why It’s “Hard to Travel To” and What to Do About It

Belluna Dome is said to be hard to travel to for the following reasons.

• From Tokyo Station or Haneda Airport, you need to change trains several times.
• Even the fastest route from Haneda Airport to the ballpark takes about 120 minutes.
• On the way home, crowds build up at Seibu-Kyujomae Station, and entry restrictions are said to be common.

There are three ways to deal with this.

• Travel between your hotel and the airport with no transfers to lighten your luggage load (NearMe Spots)
• After the show, wait a little before heading to the station, or use a taxi you booked in advance
• If you are a group of four or more, split the taxi fare

NearMe Spots: Hotel ⇄ Haneda Airport with No Transfers

NearMe Spots are direct-to-Haneda pickup points (virtual bus stops) set up in areas where limousine buses do not stop. There are more than 50 of them, and you can use them in either direction: from Haneda Airport to a Spot, or from a Spot to Haneda Airport. Service also runs late at night and early in the morning.

For example, here is a comparison for getting from Shinjuku to Haneda Airport.

Method (Shinjuku to Haneda Airport)	Estimated fare	Estimated travel time
NearMe Spot	About ¥2,480	From about 55 minutes
Limousine bus	About ¥1,400	From about 80 minutes (you must travel to the bus stop)
Taxi	About ¥9,500	From about 45 minutes (pickup and expressway fees extra)

From the Sasazuka stop to Haneda Airport, the estimate is also about ¥2,480. Because the ride is shared with other passengers, it costs less than a taxi. One suitcase per person is free.

How to Choose a Spot That Makes Getting to the Ballpark Easy

To get to Belluna Dome, you transfer to the Seibu Line at Ikebukuro Station. If you book a hotel near a Spot at a station with a no-transfer connection to Ikebukuro Station, the train ride to the ballpark becomes easier.

NearMe Spot	To Ikebukuro Station (no transfers)	Hotel ⇄ Haneda Airport
Shinjuku	JR Yamanote Line / Saikyo Line	No transfers (from about ¥2,480)
Higashi-Shinjuku	Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line	No transfers
Akasaka-mitsuke	Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line	No transfers
Nakano-sakaue	Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line	No transfers
Shin-Koenji	Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line	No transfers
Ogikubo	Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line	No transfers
Ebisu	JR Yamanote Line	No transfers
Harajuku	JR Yamanote Line	No transfers

On the Fukutoshin Line at Higashi-Shinjuku, some trains run through onto the Seibu Line. You may be able to skip the transfer at Ikebukuro, so check with a transit app.

Stops and service vary by time of day. Check with a transit app before you decide where to stay. Fares and pickup points for each Spot are available on the NearMe Spots page.

As a rule, new reservations are accepted until 6 p.m. the day before your ride. Same-day bookings are also accepted if a scheduled shuttle still has room. Service runs 24 hours a day, year-round.

NearMe (Taxi) | 20% Off with Advance Booking, Up to 50% Off When Shared

NearMe (taxi) is available mainly in Tokyo’s 23 wards for trips to hotels, stations, and event venues. Trips between Belluna Dome and major stations are 20% off when booked in advance. If a shared ride is matched, the discount rises to up to 50% off.

Sample Fares Between Belluna Dome and Major Stations

Pickup/drop-off point (to Belluna Dome)	Regular fare estimate	Advance booking fare estimate (20% off)
Shinjuku Station	About ¥19,840	About ¥15,900
Shibuya Station	About ¥21,010	About ¥16,900
Nippori Station	About ¥23,890	About ¥19,200
Ueno Station	About ¥24,790	About ¥19,900
Shinagawa Station	About ¥25,510	About ¥20,500
Tokyo Station	About ¥26,230	About ¥21,000
Haneda Airport Terminal 1	About ¥27,850	About ¥22,300

Fares are estimates and vary by date, time, and conditions. For discount conditions and eligible periods, check the booking page. A shared ride is matched when other bookings headed in the same direction come together. A match is not guaranteed.

Because the distance is long, riding alone costs more than the train. Splitting the fare brings down the cost per person. For example, splitting about ¥22,300 from Haneda Terminal 1 among four people comes to about ¥5,600 each; among three, about ¥7,400 each. Splitting about ¥15,900 from Shinjuku Station among four comes to about ¥4,000 each.

How the Taxi Works

• No booking fee or pickup fee: The fare is all-inclusive, covering the app arrangement fee, reservation fee, pickup fee, and late-night/early-morning surcharge. You won’t be charged anything extra after the ride.
• You can book up to 12 months ahead. You can also call a ride right now.
• Vehicles are sedans or minivans (you cannot choose the vehicle type).
• Cancellation after booking is free before a vehicle is confirmed, or up to 60 minutes before the scheduled departure time.

After the show, crowds build up at Seibu-Kyujomae Station. If you book ahead, you can avoid the station crowds and head to your hotel or a major station. Concert end times can be hard to predict. If your plans may change, use the 60-minute cancellation deadline as a guide.

Group Trips: Charter | Up to 9 People in One Vehicle

If you are traveling with friends in a group of four or more, chartering a larger vehicle is convenient.

• Up to 9 people per vehicle (minivans seat up to 5, wagons up to 9)
• You can add multiple stops. For example, you can stop at your hotel before heading to the venue
• You can choose a transfer plan to a set destination or an hourly charter
• Cancellation is free up to 3 days before the scheduled departure time

For details, see the NearMe large vehicle and charter page.
