To goto the tent (woth signs you couldn't see from the road) and then back again... Anyway then joined 3 more queues before getting to our seats. We arrived at 5:50, we got to our seats at 7pm. It took over an hour to get ribbons and then get back... so badly managed. Then the seats are really small, really small. Many are warped and broken.

Then exiting the building was amazing. Roads were blocked, walkways were blocked. The trip home took more time to get out of the stadium traffic than it took to get to the stadium. Concert was great. Stadium management and event management need...
