5. If one purchased tickets to the Stadium Management Lounge, one must enter through Gate C and proceed to Foyer A.

6. If one bought one's tickets online (print at home) please make sure one prints out one's e-ticket, fold it as indicated on the ticket prior to arriving at the event to avoid creasing and damaging the barcodes, and ensure that one bring one's e-ticket with one to the venue as one cannot reprint e-tickets at the venue for safety and security reasons. One's e-ticket needs to be of high print quality to ensure a positive scan at the venue. Please note it tickets cannot be scanned off any mobile device.

7. For e-tickets purchased from www.bigconcerts.co.za, please review one's printer settings before printing. The document must print to its actual size so that the folding lines print to the edge of the paper. If the document is fit to print to the paper size it will print the barcode too far away from the edge of the paper, and the barcode scanners at the turnstiles will be unable to read your ticket.

8. Don't forget to bring with one on the day: one's tickets, ID (if one intends to consume alcohol), cash (No ATMs on site) and appropriate clothes for any weather conditions.
