A few quick questions....

[jdrobson00]

Just a few quick questions for a first timer  that im hoping someone will be helpful enough to answer….

1. Couldn’t get anytime off work so had to get 2 day tickets, when I come on the Saturday and exchange my sat ticket for a wristband, can I also bring my Sunday tick and get my Sunday wristband also or do I have to do it on separate days?

2. We are getting the bus from Leeds centre, how long aprox does it take to get there, and do the busses get their own lane for getting there or do we have to wait in queues with the rest of the cars?

3.  How much are pints and do you have to get tokens like at other fests or just pay when you get a drink?

4. Thinking of buying one of those vodka pouches  and shoving it down the front of my trousers… how hard would it be do get it in? do they try and search as much as poss or just the people looking dodgy? And when they do search do they just pat your pockets or go all out feel you up?

Thank you for your time, have a great time…

1. I think you'll have to do it on separate days.

3. £4 a pint I believe, standard for a outdoor event these days, no tokens just cash

4. You should be fine, they don't really search you, they just stop you if they see you with anything or look suspicious, I dunno what them pouches are like but as long as it's not obvious you'll be fine.

A good tip of getting alcohol into the Arena that I have used over the past few years is taking a nearly empty can of lager in my hand to the entrance point as though you are going to try and take this into the Arena un-aware of any restrictions and sacrificing this one can as the security will tell you to throw it in the bin at the side of the entrance, they never seem to check that you have anything else on you as you have given up the alchol you had on you!
