BOOKING NOTES
As not everyone who asks for tickets uses them, we send out more tickets than there are places. This means that admission is on a first come, first served basis and entry is not guaranteed.
Doors will open 90 minutes before the start time and latecomers will not be admitted. On arrival, patrons will be given wristbands for the event and required to undergo security and bag checks. Bags larger than A4 size will not be permitted inside the auditorium so please travel light!
