Main Doors: 5pm

Curfew: 10.30pm
General Admission Bars Close: 11pm
Stadium Closes: Midnight

Please note: All timings are subject to change

So the first makes it sound like an estimate of when the show will end, and the second says it’s a curfew but timings are subject to change. So maybe it’s not a hard curfew and there’s some wiggle room? Perhaps somebody else can clarify - I’m sure it’s been mentioned on here before.

It's a residential area so expect it to be a hard curfew. GNR finished their shows at 10.15, so I'd guess they might target that end time which allows for a few minutes over-run to 10.30 if needed.

I believe it’s 10.30pm for this stadium. She’s been going on about 9.15pm local time so far, but it seems like the other venues had a later curfew (11/11.30). I’m sure they’ll be prepared that the show needs to start earlier for London and hopefully she’ll be out by 8.15/8.30. 

On the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium website it says this about the TCB shows:

Doors will open at 5.00pm with the concerts due to finish at 10.30pm. Please be advised that a full noise management plan will be implemented by Vanguardia in agreement with Haringey Council.

And on the specific TCB section of their site it says:

Main Doors: 5pm

Curfew: 10.30pm
General Admission Bars Close: 11pm
Stadium Closes: Midnight

Please note: All timings are subject to change

Also, it just says Main Doors are 5pm, so there might actually still be a separate EE time that they’ll communicate directly to those ticket holders?

"Please note: All timings are subject to change"

I think it is just a standard warning that if something changes or doesn't happen exactly according to the given information, you can't complain. This was in the information even before the door opening was changed.

Oh it will be so sunny and warm. It seems that London will be the earliest show 

According my weather forecast, the highest temperature is 23 C on 29th and 26 C on 30th. The forecast is changing rapidly, two days ago it was forecasting 31 C. I literally don't know what clothes to pack.

my advice is to bring a cheap umbrella and dress in airy clothes and bring a lot of water. maybe a fan too  a small electric one or one of those foldable fans

thanks for the advice, but if it is only 23 C during the day, the question is should I wear short or long sleeves for the evening
there is a rule that neither water nor food can be brought into the stadium, as I read

even 23 can be a lot for a long time if u just sitting there tbh. i'd go with short sleeves, u wont be cold at any point i imagine.  most people just throw whatever they have on the ground when they enter and the staff cleans it up after. its sad but u cant rly do anything else

Short definitely. I think it'll be too hot to wear sleeves with the crowd so packed. I left a concert the other night in a sleeveless top, queued outside to get onto the train for about half an hour and I wasn't cold at all (and I'm always cold). I think you'll be fine!

It was the early entry definitely canceled or not?

[Stephen 30,419]

5pm is so early no? Maybe that's the EE time and everyone else is later. Idgi

I don’t think it’s canceled but I just got back from the Paris show and it was hell. More than 60% of the golden circle was sold as “early entry”. At least 2500 EE tickets sold, I’d say closer to 3000 and that’s just the golden circle, not even mentioning Pitch Early Entry. It’s honestly verging on a scam.

I queued with EE since noon, only to go in at 5:40ish and find myself at the very back of the pit. It was so hot, so stuffy, we stood in the direct sun for hours. Once inside the circle, we didn’t have access to go anywhere and buy water or drinks. My friend managed to convince a security guard who barely spoke two words of English to let him leave the circle and go try to find us some water.

I liked the show but I couldn’t see much and I’m not that short (178cm). Once the show started, it become The iPhonetica Ball. The main stage is very, very low and much of her time is spent on there. I wish they made it a 9-10 foot high stage that they usually do for stadium shows instead of a standard arena stage height of around 6 feet.

This just in, if you choose to arrive at a gig in an outdoor venue 4-5 hours early, you will be stood around in warm outdoor temperatures for 4-5 hours. Shocking, I know.

[BornAsUnic0rn 2,043]

yeah in Düsseldorf early entry meant that the early entry lines were let in when the doors opened and the regular tickets after that? Idk what you guys expected?

[LilyLark 10,074]

Probably call ticketmaster and try to talk to an actual person. This doesn't sound correct...if it is, I imagine they'll offer a refund if you get on the phone and insist. Something similar happened to me a while ago, and there was no information online...but I called and kept insisting and finally they refunded me (when initially, they refused to give a refund).

Ticketmaster/LiveNation are VERY shady (US reps., pre COVID, talked about going after them because they are basically a monopoly that also have misleading business practices).

That said, it often just means you get let in early...it doesn't always mean different staggered times.

No wiggle room for the curfew. It’s imposed by the council because the stadium is in a residential area. Keep playing past that time and you get shut off and fined. 

All the other times are obviously subject to change, this one isn’t.
