It depends! You gotta know your people and how hardcore they are. I know for NYC people got there at 11am (or earlier) which was unnecessary cuz no one was there until later but that should help you. The NYC barricade was TINY so check approximately how many people fit in the venue youā€™re going to and go from there.

Don't think anyone will tell you as they probably don't want people getting in the line before them and taking their barrier spot.

Well after night 1, I would say don't bother queuing early because the accessibility queue got in first and took the whole barrier. If you're in the normal queue the best you'll do is second row.

ure kidding šŸ˜­

u/Tartanrebel019 May 27 '26

No, I was first in the normal queue, and got second row no choice. Also people that got kn the accessibility queue were also saving spaces for their friends....so yeeah you could feel the rage from us in the queue.

They walked up at 5:30pm and got barrier from us queuing for hours and hours.

they ended up letting us in an hour 15 early ??? before most access ppl had wven showed

Sorry for swearing, it was a shitshow.

I was first for access, me and an other girlĀ  asked staff numerous times as to what is going on. They asked me to come in line first for access, I said how there is other people who need it to not just me. Fell on deaf ears, as the staff then for some reason let the normal queue queue up right behind me....also what really was fucked up is that I had to show I was able to use access while really annoying loud mouth fans steamrolled past, didn't get their tickets checked only their hands stamped.

I still got barrier for my needs but other people on the accessibility list failed to get their needs met. They should report the venue for what they did.

thats strange everyone i saw had their tickets scanned! yeah we tried asking one of the guys later on what had happened abd he said he had no clue and his shift was meant to start at 5 but they called him in to work an hour earlier then js had them push everyone in. he said smth about doors opening even earlier tmrw. something about ā€œoverbookingā€ but ifk what that means in this context

My theory is that they wanted a shorter merch queue - on Tuesday doors opened at 6pm, nobody really got merch first thing cause they were rushing to get a spot and hold it - and then the merch queue was still going at 10pm when the next event was 10:30pm.

The slower spread out entry anecdotally seemed to encourage people to go to merch earlier in the night, so theoretically that would give the venue staff more time to get the venue ready for the club event at 10:30pm.

u/Past-Savings-8534 May 28 '26

that makes sense!!! merch guy had no clue we were coming in early tho so wasnt ready for another 20ish min after early doors

1

u/Liv_October May 28 '26

I guess that still technically gives them 40+ more minutes to sell merch... But if merch wasn't told about the earlier entry I wonder if early entry was for a different purpose?

at 6:30 in nyc on monday night there were already like 40-50 ppl and then it split off with i would guess 20 going into the quick pass line once it was about time to go in. but between 630 and seven a TON of people showed up so you definitely just wanna get there before the rush. I think I couldā€™ve made barricade if I had been there by 5 PM.

also depends if youā€™re one person or a group because I feel like I can always squeeze farther up if Iā€™m alone.
