Benjamin Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Take a train from Bankstown Station to Olympic Park Station - exactly what I did when I went to the ARIA Awards this year, which was also at Acer Arena (except I came from Bondi Junction Station). Acer Arena is a 3-minute walk from the Olympic Park Station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackdollie Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 how to buy the ticket?:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 When you get to Bankstown Station buy a return ticket to Olympic Park Station. Then ask for one of the staff to direct you to the line to goes to Lidcombe if you're having trouble finding it. Once you're on the train be aware when you arrive at Lidcombe Station. It should take about 20 minutes. When you do, be sure to get off. At Lidcombe Station find the sign that says Olympic Park Station and catch that train and you'll arrive there in about 6 minutes. Oh, by the way, you can't pre-book train tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 They're not on sale yet. If you have a Visa credit card they go on pre-sale this Thursday. Otherwise you'll have to wait until Thursday next week. Check ticketek.com.au. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

but a dream Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 wow that's cool. I couldn't for the life of me get standing tickets although it was stated they were 'available' on the site :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Yeah, basically ticketek.com.au sucks. It's really disorganised and unclear, I had trouble buying my tickets too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
but a dream Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 It's crazy, giving only 10 minutes before logging out. Other sites I used before gave me 10 minutes to HOLD a ticket, but won't log me out, sparing me the time wasted by refreshing the page and logging in again. But that's water under the bridge already, we got our tickets :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
