What is security like at this venue? Are there metal detectors, wands, patdowns etc? I'd like to try to get a largish camera in...

There are 2 patdowns on the way in, me thinks... no metal detectors though, a few days ago i read in Ocesa's twitter that you can actually get digital cameras in but no proffesional cameras will be allowed.

theres just one patdown; theres one point where the staff will check that you do have a ticket and that you are getting in through the right entrance; then you will have your ticket checked just to confirm its not fake and then it comes the pat down inspection

 

i remember they used some metal detectors once but it was several years ago, i think they dont use them anymore, at least not on my last visits to the venue
