Stadium doors will open from 4.30pm and again concert-goers are strongly advised to arrive early as queues will build later in the day.

Entry points around the stadium are clearly signposted and correspond to individual tickets. Concert-goers should carefully read the details on their ticket and stadium map, which was sent to them with their tickets, and then access the stadium via the relevant entry point.

Roads immediately surrounding the stadium will be closed to all traffic on the day and there are no vehicle pick up or drop off areas on, or near to the site. Those attending the show should plan their journey in advance, taking advantage of enhanced Metro and bus services to avoid delays in getting to the stadium.

Extensive car parking is available in Sunderland city centre and routes into the city will be well signposted. There is no public parking at the Stadium of Light.
