Tips & Advice
- Arrive early, because doors open 45 minutes before the concert and late entry is not permitted once the music starts.
- Seats go first come, first served within your ticket zone, so arriving at door opening gets you a better seat.
- Have your QR code ready, either in the Tickets section of the Fever app or in your confirmation email.
- If your plans might change, you can move to another date or time up to 48 hours ahead, subject to availability.
- Order the Candlelight Photo add-on online rather than at the venue, since it's cheaper when bought ahead.
Special Events & Promotions
- Candlelight Photo add-on: an instant photo of you or your group in the candlelit setting, cheaper when bought online.
- Candlelight Plush add-on: a soft plush version of the Candlelight mascot to take home as a souvenir.
