One Direction Tickets - Manchester

This may be money wasting, not saving, but Ticketmaster are showing seated tickets still available for the Friday and Sunday concerts in Manchester at the Ethiad. £72 each including fees is a bit steep, but much less than some of the other sites want.

1.5% Quidco to numb the pain, but it'll be midnight (bad) memories by the time you get off the car park at the end.

    I saw Muse there last year and yes, it was nearly 2 hours to get off the damned car park! Ridiculous!

    Think I'll be giving 1D a miss though

  • I can't believe that people go to an event with 60,000+ people, park in the official car park, and expect anything other than a slow getaway.

    The Etihad has plenty of industrial estates nearby, all offering parking and a much quicker exit.

    You can avoid the traffic by leaving halfway through the show - two wins in one ;-)

    Traffic management leaving the eithid is pants . walk about a mile outside the eithiad zone and save 2 hours leaving manchester via the only route available . (i head down kingsway through burnage onto M56 for my journey back to Merseyside takes about an hour to get home inc walk. Will take 3 hours + from Ethiad or supermarket opposite
    :cool: hard as nails on the internet . wimp in the real world :cool:
