Tips & Advice

  • Arrive at least 60 minutes before the show to secure good seating, as it is first-come, first-served within each zone. Doors close 5 minutes prior to the start, and late arrivals will not be permitted.
  • Ensure you have your ticket readily available in the Fever app or confirmation email, as tickets are not sold at the venue.
  • Consider the seating zones (A, B, C) when purchasing tickets, with Zone A offering the best visibility.
  • If you require a caretaker pass due to accessibility needs, purchase your ticket first and then contact support for the free pass.
