Attendees must review and agree to participation rules before attending. The event is divided into two main parts: Ikebukuro Halloween Night and the Ikebukuro Halloween Cosplay Festival. The Halloween Night is restricted to adults 18 years and older, with high school students explicitly prohibited from entry. Age verification using identification is mandatory at the entrance, and late arrivals after 21:30 will not be admitted. The Cosplay Festival allows children under elementary school age only if accompanied by a parent or guardian. A participation fee of 500 yen applies to elementary school students, payable in cash at the Kids Ticket counter, while children residing in Toshima Ward and those not yet in elementary school enter free. Accompanying parents or guardians are also charged a fee. Children under elementary school age may use changing rooms matching their parent's gender, though admission to the opposite gender's facilities may be refused. Unaccompanied children under elementary school age are not permitted.
