Dear ticket holder,

We’re looking forward to seeing you at Little Mix – The Glory Days Tour at Arena. Don’t forget to pass this email on to your parents or those you have purchased ticket for, so that you are all ready for this weekend!

To ensure your evening is an enjoyable one, we strongly encourage you to plan for extra travel and entrance time to the event. There are currently a number of factors that may significantly delay your journey to the arena and we would hate for you to miss the start of the show because of them!

So to assist in your planning, please see below further detail:

Running Times Outer doors open at 6:00 PM and we recommended you arrive no later than 7:30PM to ensure you see the start of the Support Act. (Times subject to change without notice) All catering and merchandise outlets will be open from outer door time, so we encourage you to arrive early and enjoy a relaxed start to your evening with plenty of time to pass through security screening and find your seat for the show.

Entrances There will be two entrances into the arena. 1) VIP and General Admission ticketholders (North West Entrance via Garden Square) 2) Reserved Seated patrons (Garden Square Entrance)

Follow the signs around the precinct to Margaret Court Arena and then head to your correct Entrance, or see one of our staff members who can assist you.

Please note that the Tanderrum Bridge is closed for construction works and access to the North West Entrance is only through Garden Square.

Queuing For those who wish to queue, camping overnight is not permitted at & Olympic Parks and access to the queue will only be permitted from 8:00AM. Venue Security will not be responsible for keeping the order of the line. We strongly encourage you to look after one another and respect where each person is in the line. Late arrivers will not be permitted to join the line with friends. Please ensure you bring food and water to look after yourself throughout the day. Toilets nearby will be open and drinking water fountains available near the queuing area.

Security Checks Patrons will be required to pass through additional security checks prior to entry into the arena for any event held at Melbourne & Olympic Parks. As such, we encourage patrons to limit the number of items brought to an event to assist in alleviating queue times due to security processing requirements.

The following Items are not allowed into the arena in addition to the venue’s conditions of entry.  Any bag larger than A4 (please do not bring any bags larger than this to the venue)  Professional cameras and professional video/audio recording equipment  Selfie sticks & wands  Bottles and Cans

Limited cloaking facilities are available. These are located at the Function Centre.

Security is our priority and we appreciate your patience in advance.

Parent Drop Off & Pick Up Parent’s wishing to drop off and pick their children will be able to do so via Entrance D utilizing the Northern Car Park or Eastern Plaza.  Northern Car park is free for the first 30 minutes. Any stay longer than 30 minutes will be charged at the full car park rate of $30.00. Parking is subject to availability.  Eastern Plaza car park is free for the first 60 minutes. Any stay longer than 60 minutes will be charged at the full car park rate of $30.00. Parking is subject to availability.

Parent Waiting Area Parents are not able to enter the arena without a valid ticket to the show. Parents looking to stay on site while their children attend the concert will be able to wait at The Collective Café located on Level 2 of HQ. The cafe will be open from 5:30pm until the end of the show and serve light refreshments.

Swan Street Bridge Upgrade For the remainder of June and July this year, one city-bound lane and one footpath (on side) of the Swan Street Bridge has been closed. This will cause significant delays for those travelling by car; drivers should allow up to 20 minutes extra travel time. For updates and further information click here.

Tanderrum Bridge Works The Tanderrum Bridge, connecting the Melbourne & Olympic Park precinct to Birrarung Marr and the Melbourne CBD / Flinders Street station will be closed to pedestrian traffic until September 2017 for a period of rectification works.

Public Transport Public transport is the quickest and easiest way to get to and from an event at Melbourne & Olympic Parks, with train, tram and bus options all operating frequently to the precinct. Patrons are strongly encouraged to catch public transport and further details, including transport route information, can be found here.

Parking Limited parking is available in the Eastern Plaza car park via Olympic Boulevard and discounted advance bookings are available online (bookings must be made by midnight the day prior to the event). Further detail regarding parking options for the precinct is available here
