Bolton stadium bosses 'reviewing plan' after car park chaos at Pink concert

Stadium bosses have vowed to take steps to stop a repeat of the chaos which saw hundreds of fans stuck in the car park until the early hours following last night's huge Pink concert in Bolton. The star kicked off the European leg of her Summer Carnival 2023 tour in front of 35,000 people at the University of Bolton Stadium.

But gig-goers complained of 'total and utter chaos' afterwards, with some drivers still stuck in the car park more than two hours after the show. In a statement this morning, a Bolton Wanderers spokesperson said they were 'reviewing the traffic management plan' ahead of a second date by Pink tonight.

A spokesperson for the University of Bolton Stadium said: "Following an incredible opening night of Pink's sensational Summer Carnival Tour 2023, at which we welcomed over 35,000 people to the University of Bolton Stadium, we are aware that some concert-goers experienced traffic and congestion issues when departing the site.
