Doors open at 6.30pm and the shows start at 8pm, but all times may be subject to change.

Those attending are asked to ensure they arrive in plenty of time to pass through security checks.

You may be searched as you are entering the Arena. Backpacks/bags over A4 size will not be permitted.

Customers are advised to pre-pay for their parking and it may take approximately one hour to exit the car park after busy events.

You are advised to view and save your tickets via Ticketmaster to your smartphone wallet.

The SSE Arena is a cashless venue so be prepared to pay by card or contactless.

Mobile phone policy

The Arena says mobile phones should be switched off or silent during the performance.

There is no photography allowed during the performance.

Entering the venue

For ease of entry, you are asked to note which door is easiest to enter from depending on your ticket type:

If you have a floor ticket (Door 1-2), the SSE Arena advise entering via the Odyssey Pavilion entrance. Doors to The SSE Arena are located opposite Hollywood Bowl on the ground floor of the Odyssey Pavilion.

If you have tickets for tiered seating (Door 4-23), the SSE Arena advise entering via the main front doors of the Arena.

Note that floor ticket customers will automatically enter into a one-way area when inside the Arena. Restroom and Bar facilities are located within this designated area. Customers are able to leave this area by collecting a wristband opposite Door 1.

The yellow edges of the floor will be kept clear by staff during the event for emergency purposes.

Ticket transfer

If you are gifting a ticket or if group members arriving at different times, you are asked to remember to transfer your tickets from your Ticketmaster account to others’ accounts securely.

You can choose to send some or all of your tickets, ensuring everyone has their own ticket to enter, re-enter, and navigate the arena. You can learn more here.
