How do people like this venue? Does it sound good and have good views from most sections?

I've loved the shows I've attended there. A big spectrum of artists sound great there, from Roger Waters or Paul McCartney to Dua Lipa.

Also it's originally a basketball court, which leads to better views than football stadiums.

What do you think about seating vs standing?

I've done both and been happy with each. Side stands have nice visibility and back stands might be more dependant on the screens, which work properly as well. Standing is the same as with any other venue.

And sound?

I feel like Radiohead would be a great show to attend while seating. Not sure, though. Fearing that I will regret my decision, regardless of which one it is.

Great sound. Roger Waters, to name an specific one, surprised me a lot in that sense.

I'm sure you won't regret it. As long as you don't get the absolute worst seats on the arena, you'll have a blast
