May 27, 200818 yr Gonna try and get tickets for this. Anyone know what its like as a venue? Would normally go MEN but may as well do Liverpool as I live there now :)
May 27, 200818 yr I'm hoping to get tickets for this show and the 2nd Manchester one,I've never been to a show at the new arena yet but I'm going there to see Echo and the bunnymen in November.I think it holds about 9000 so it's not quite as big the m.e.n
May 28, 200818 yr Its a 10,600 all seater, Never been but will try my hardest to go to this. Tickets on sale on Friday.
May 28, 200818 yr I figure with the capital of culture thing and this being the first year the arena has been open it might be hard. On the other hand how many hardcore fans that will get up at 9am on a friday morning can there be in Merseyside. Right? :p
May 28, 200818 yr I'm hoping to get tickets for this gig. I went a few weeks ago for another gig and its quite a decent venue. Its a lot smaller than the MEN, which is better imo and it seems pretty good for parking around it too. Its down on the docks so just out of the centre, but on a good bus route I think. My friend works at the arena and she seems to think it will remain an all seater for Coldplay - Im hoping she's wrong though! :thinking:

May 28, 200818 yr All-seating? Eek, I hope not lol. I can't see it I'm going to see the bunnymen there in November and it's standing,so i would very surprised if it' s seating when all the other arena shows they've played in the Uk over the years have had standing.
May 28, 200818 yr Going down there at 6 am mate, thats what i call hardcore. :P Do they sell tickets in person? I thought you could only book online.
May 28, 200818 yr No i rang the box office they said its a general sale, I was unsure about this too so I'm going to ring them again tomorrow.
May 28, 200818 yr Hey there, I'm a newbie:cool: haha, well I was wondering, if I ordered my tickets on Friday, when would i pay for the tickets as at the moment I am skint:embarassed: I can't find anything on the website either:( Please can someone help me out Jac x
May 28, 200818 yr You pay when you order them, so you'd better make sure there's enough money on whoever's card your going to be using
May 29, 200818 yr Just phoned the box office, its all seating and tickets are £42.50. I definitely won't be going now....I'm not paying what'll end up over £90 for 2 to see Coldplay having to sit down. NO WAY. It's a very bad decision whoever decided this :(
May 29, 200818 yr I can't see Liverpool on the list of venues on TicketMaster, so I guess if you're planning on going to the Liverpool gig you can only book on GigsAndTours?
May 29, 200818 yr Nobody Will Sit down anyway Thats not the point though. The annoying thing is that there'll be hardly any really decent seats, especially on the floor which is flat, and I'm a complete short-arse, and the chances of getting them are so small, so why bother at all! I hate having a seating ticket at gigs, I love being as close to the band as possible, and don't mind queuing for hours, and Coldplay aren't even offering the chance, not like any of us on here are gonna get front row seats!!!!
May 30, 200818 yr For people who wanna go to this show I just saw tickets appearing for few seconds on ticketline.co.uk , if that can help, I think you should check the site every few minutes...
May 30, 200818 yr Anyone still looking for tix, they're also onsale here: http://www.accliverpool.com/ which is the box office website.
May 30, 200818 yr I love you!!! Whoever posted before me with the link to the venue i absolutely love you!!!!!:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:;);) I got 2 £42.50 tickets at 11 hahahahaa:D
