Björk will be headlining the Japan Live8 next Saturday 2nd of July.
Applications for tickets are now open through the Japanese official
website

through to the excite.co.jp dedicated website.
You then get entered for a ticket 'lottery'. This closed at noon Japan
time
on Wed, and the winners will be selected at random and notified by e-mail
on
Thu. They then bring their individual winners number with ID to the venue,
which acts as their ticket.
