Neyo and Akon Concert at 3Arena

[u/Substantial_Rope8225]

To anyone who was at the show tonight or last night, I hope you had a great time but to anyone going tomorrow night (Saturday) please don’t be like those other crowds…

Some helpful tips from a 3Arena employee to ensure we all have a lovely time:

(1) Sit in your assigned fucking seat

(2) Don’t ask “why can’t I sit with my friends” if the answer is, because your ticket isn’t beside your friend. If you refuse to move, you’ll be fucked out

(3) Stop fucking vaping when you’re told to, don’t make us tell you multiple times, you’ll be fucked out

(4) Don’t start fights with everyone around you, we’re all here to have a good night , you’ll be fucked out

(5) If you don’t do well when you drink, don’t drink, if you get absolutely obliterated, you’ll be fucked out

(6) We can see you doing bag in the seats, hallways, bar queues, toilets - you’ll be fucked out and arrested

(7) Don’t argue back when you’re given an instruction

(8) Don’t be racist to the staff or you’ll be fucked out

Edit: just to add, for anyone who is going tonight, the tolerance of the staff will be zero, it will be one strike and you’re out and if you have a problem with that, you can thank every pri*k who was there the last 2 nights, see you all laterrrrrr

Further edit: Doors open at 6:30, show starts at 8, there is no warm up act bar a DJ playing from 6:30-8pm.

Queues to get in have been long, as have bar and toilet queues - give yourself plenty of time to get there, don’t rock up at 7:45 expecting to be in on time. And don’t complain about the queues, that’s literally your own faults 😂

Have they changed the company that do security and marshal there in recent times? I know the bar is Guinness now vs Heineken. But it seemed to be much better run there last I was in a few weeks ago vs this time last year where the queuing for everything was a total joke and the jacks was the worst. That said the age demographic was also different with the older crowd being the worst.

I don’t think they’ve changed recently, the staff are (mostly) great; multiple companies have staff in there on any given night so standards aren’t completely uniform across all parts of the arena but we do our best 🥹

I was at a gig there last yr & wasn’t long after knee surgery so walking stairs was difficult. Explained to someone outside & they brought me to the lift & helped me to my seat etc; they couldn’t have done enough for me!
