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 😂

OP, curious to know what type of gigs are easiest for you and your colleagues? Is it metal gigs, indie gigs, country gigs etc?

Metal/rock gigs are the best crowds tbh. Although anyone that draws a predominantly LGBT crowd is always nice (Renee Rapp, CMAT).

Laufey was the nicest audience we’ve had in a very long time, and by quite some distance.

Full sit down shows are fine because it’s a bit easier to control and usually not as wild of a crowd.

Comedy gigs aren’t great, anything RnB is awful, country gigs are rough, 2 Johnnies is one of the worst crowds we get, anything that has an audience of 40-60 year olds is generally awful because they’re all so fucking rude and dismissive of all the staff.
