All You Need to Know and More...

Our open-air arena is fully seated; please check your tickets for information about the gate opening and show start times. 

Please bring one medium-sized bag per person to the event. This will greatly assist with our security checks. We do not have cloakroom facilities at the event. 

The event is outdoors; please check the weather forecast before you arrive and dress accordingly!

  • Do I need to print my tickets? You do not need to print your tickets, even if you have purchased a 'Print At Home' ticket. Our ticket scanners can read the barcodes of tickets stored on your phone and physical tickets.
  • I haven’t received an email with my tickets on them; what should I do? First, check your spam! If you have no luck, contact your ticket provider directly (SEE Tickets are our primary provider). Have ready all of your booking information, and they can send you your tickets.
  • Are chairs provided? Yes! Leave yours at home, our fully-seated Big Top awaits.
  • Is the event outdoors? The event is totally outdoors - please dress accordingly!
  • It’s outdoors, can I smoke? We have dedicated smoking areas with ashtrays provided; the seated arena is a no-smoking (or vaping!) zone.
  • Is there an age limit? Our shows carry an age limit of 16+, under 18’s accompanied by an adult. You may be refused entry to the Big Top if our staff think you are under 16; please bring your ID if you’re concerned. 
  • Can I bring my own water to the event? Yes, but we ask that you use a transparent container to help speed up our security checks.
  • You’re sold out! Where can I apply for returns? Check SEE tickets fan-to-fan resale and Twickets. Do not buy tickets from external sources, as they may not be accepted on the door. 
  • I need to organise the babysitter - what exact time is my favourite comedian performing? We do not give out specific timings of comedians. Your tickets however will provide information on the event open and show start times, we estimate that our multi-bill shows last approximately 2.5hrs.
  • Can I bring my dog/cat/ parrot? Unfortunately not. Assistance animals are welcome, but please contact our access team so we can help you select the best seats.
  • I have booked for more than one show in a day - must I leave the arena in between my shows? Yes, so that we can prepare for the next show, we must empty the arena between shows. You can head back outside to enjoy a drink or snack from our concessions whilst we give the place a spruce. Please make sure you get your relevant ticket scanned by one of our friendly staff! If you are one of our accessibility ticket holders, please speak with a member of our team when you arrive, and they will be able to assist.
  • Can I stick around and eat and drink after my show is finished? Unfortunately not; once your show is over, our friendly staff will guide you out of the exit. Make sure you get your fill of our delicious food stalls and thirst-quenching bars in the second interval. 
  • I’m running late. Is this a problem? We ask you to please check your tickets and allow yourself plenty of time. Latecomers may have to wait until the next interval to take their seats. Our gates close at 9.30 pm. 
  • Can I bring a picnic? Afraid not. We ask you not to try and bring food or drink into the event; if you do you will be asked to leave it outside. But worry not, our bars and street-food stalls are on hand to keep your taste buds as tickled as your sides. 
  • Cash or card? We are operating a cashless event. All walk-up ticket bookings must be made online via our website, and our bars and street-food traders only accept cards.
  • Oh no! I dropped my hat! Do you have a Lost and Found? We certainly do; we’ll keep any items found until Monday, 9th September. Any items of high value (credit/debit cards/wallets/keys/jewellery/phones) will be taken to the Greater Manchester Police City Centre Public Enquiry Counter. Please email us to find out if we have your lost item. 
  • The line up of my show has changed - can I get a refund? We make every endeavour to deliver the original bill and thankfully most of the time we do! Unfortunately there are times when an act simply cannot fulfil their booking. On these rare occasions, we guarantee to replace them with another amazing act.
