Given recent events and to deal with concerns voiced by some of our customers, we have been advised by the local constabulary that we should carry out a bag search on entry.

Please avoid bringing a big bag if you can.

Please try to get to the venue a bit earlier to allow for this, so as not miss any of the bands, especially on Friday when the busiest arrival time is between 7pm and 9pm.

On Friday, if you can come down to the venue for wristband exchange outside on the Amphitheatre between 2:30pm and 6pm, that is recommended. Once you’ve got your wristband you can go into the Sports Bar or you can come back later at 7pm when the main venue opens.

Arrive early and get your wristband

We can confirm that at this time, there is no specific threat to venues in Bradford and that advice therefore defaults to national risk: Severe “Run, Hide, Tell”
