Can we walk to the venue from nearby locations?

Yes, you can certainly walk to the concert venue from nearby hotels. However, this largely depends on the specific location of your accommodation and whether the usual entrance gate is accessible. It’s advisable to consult with your hotel or map out your route beforehand to ensure a hassle-free journey.

Will there be signs indicating where to park and where the shuttle buses are located?

Absolutely! There will be clear signage, including large orange “Park and Ride” signs strategically placed near the Coldplay shuttle bus stops to guide you.

Where can private cars drop off and pick me up?

The designated drop-off and pick-up location has been confirmed and is conveniently located right at the stadium. If you’re being dropped off by a taxi or private vehicle, there’s no need for shuttles.

Am I allowed to bring my G7X camera and Instax Polaroid?

Professional cameras and other recording equipment are not permitted. Therefore, it’s advisable to only bring personal devices such as smartphones. Instax Polaroids are generally allowed, but be sure to consult the list of prohibited items for confirmation.

Do we need tickets for shuttle buses in Abu Dhabi? Or is this option only available for Dubai?

Tickets are only required for shuttles departing from Al Shahama (Abu Dhabi) or Expo City (Dubai). These can be booked for free via Ticketmaster. All other shuttle services operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

How frequently will the shuttle buses run?

The shuttle buses will operate regularly from designated locations to facilitate smooth transportation for concertgoers. The exact schedule has yet to be announced.

Do attendees aged 14 and above need to be accompanied by an adult?

For the Coldplay concerts, attendees aged 14 and above may enter the venue if accompanied by an adult. Those who are 16 and older can attend unaccompanied. It’s essential for everyone to present a valid Emirates ID (or an equivalent identification for non-UAE residents).

Where can I park my car if I choose to drive to the stadium?

Unfortunately, there is no parking available at the stadium or on nearby roads. Your best option is to park at one of the free Park and Ride locations and then take advantage of the complimentary shuttle bus service.

Are power banks allowed at the concert?

Initially, power banks were not permitted, but they are now allowed. This means you can keep your phone charged throughout the concert experience.

I have deluxe VIP tickets; what does that include?

Deluxe VIP tickets grant you access to the best seats in the venue. The Coldplay Enhanced Experience tickets also come with additional perks such as food, drinks, and exclusive merchandise.

What time is the concert expected to end?

The concert is set to start at 7:45 PM, and you can anticipate it concluding around 9:45 PM.

Where is the nearest drop-off area for taxis?

The confirmed drop-off and pick-up locations are at Zayed Sports City Stadium, so there will be no need for shuttles if you’re arriving by taxi.

As a 16-year-old, do I need to show my Emirates ID at entry?

Yes, all attendees, regardless of their age, must present their Emirates ID (or equivalent identification if they are not residents of the UAE) upon entry.
