    Glad everyone had an awesome time, really glad I posted it now! Went on Friday with the tenner seats and was pleasantly suprised by the view, had a fantastic time :)
  • I got my tickets before seeing this forum but did get the £20 tickets. Was really apprehensive until I read all the previous posts.
    Thanks for the info on the community centre parking, perfect distance and no hassle whatsoever.
    I was tempted to collect our tickets at 12 but opted to go for 4pm and take the risk. Had about a 10 minute queue to collect the tickets, only problem was when I checked them one of our party had a seat nowhere near us. Fortunately the steward let me go back without queuing and ask if they could swap them. After an ear bashing about the rules on the website state that seats aren't guaranteed to be together she did swap them (there were only 3 of us in our group).
    Had a play at the samsung tent with their promotion game and all got free lanyards saying Take That Live Progress Tour on. Went through gates with no queue whatsoever at 4:30 ish and straight to our seats.
    The tickets weren't handed out on a first come best seats basis as we were seated in the end block 301 and block 302 had about 4 people in it.
    Bonus though was we did get to see the dancers, band, Pet Shop Boys AND TAKE THAT backstage before anyone else. They were waving at us and getting us all screaming before they made their entrance.
    A truly fantastic night and we could not have asked for more. We were certainly glad we weren't in the crowd standing as we also witnessed several people getting led out, one even carried out at one point but I think alcohol may have contributed to that.
    A huge thank you to everyone for their info.

    sounds like the cheap tickets were bargains, we were at the front of the b stage & asked why it was starting later & was told so it was a bit darker for their entrance so it looks better on the dvd!

    Have to agree with all the above posts. Many thanks to the OP and all who have provided info in this topic.

    The show was amazing and at £10 they were an absolute bargain. I will definitely be attending their next tour even if I have to pay £50 per ticket as it was just soo brilliant!
