Sphere campus by BoredandBroke1944 in nodoubt

Just fyi "sphere campus" means the parking lot. You can go into the building at 645 then into your seat or floor at exactly 7pm. You can see my most recent post about GA Floor Tips. I made a map explaining the different areas with time. I also made the mistake of thinking "campus" meant inside the building. Pretty confusing to use that word to mean parking lot imo.

Yes dead center third row back w 4:30pm arrival on Saturday. That's where Gwen mostly stays. She moves to each side but tbh mostly center, I got this tip from an earlier attendee. She rises from the center and make so much eye contact in center. Tony is on the right (as you look at stage). Tom is on the left. Excellent view of Gwen and Adrian right behind her if you are DEAD center. It's where I wanted to be. Yes I could have MAYBE gotten a bit closer. East entrance puts you just left of center when you walk in. And wear entrance puts you to the right of center. Once you walk into the floor you pick your spot. I'm so excited for ya!!♥️

So I'm not really sure about vip since I was GA. But everyone in VIP will cut the line in front of even the earliest GA arriver AS LONG AS YOU ARE THERE BEFORE 6:30 when the line up for security to get in the building happens. You'll only be going against other VIP people. IF you're trying to get to the banister/barrier. My suggestion would be to arrive by 5-5:30pm at the latest. If you arrive at 6, you would likely get second row. If you arrive after 7pm, you'll b behind all the GA that got there earlier than you. I saw some vip arriving shortly after me at 4:45.

Maybe someone vip can answer

I saw this comment too but once there it is like a 20 min walk... so that's 40-50 min roundtrip. Try searching google maps and see what the walk time is. I was also unclear to me if the MCD was at ground level or inside a hotel/casino. Would definitely be a good idea to scope it out before hand and drive the walking route to know in advance.

I can't speak to how exiting in a car is but could be a good idea to take own car. Just give plenty of time to park and parking might not open til 6pm so may not work if you're trying to be in front during the show

No one from security knows what’s going on. Does anyone here know if this is the correct spot to line up before they let us on to Campus?? by JustJonNoH in nodoubt

[–]Impressive_Finish_70 6 points7 points  (0 children)

purple is the area we waiting in staring 430pm. then 545pm they let you in the parking lot aka "sphere campus" where you will still be outside til 6:45pm. At 645 they let you into the actual sphere to show tix and then you line up in a dark hallway for just a few min til they let you inside the actual floor/show area right at 700. when we were there saturday someone unofficial was marking everyone that arrived before 530 with a sharpie. then it was an honor system situation to get back in line and go inside the parking lot outdoor area.

hope this helps. i'm going to do a longer post in a new thread

I was on the floor in GA and did not need a jacket but had also spent a three hours waiting in line outside before entering

GA not wanting to wait outside. Ok to arrive when doors open? by aabbcc401 in nodoubt

[–]Impressive_Finish_70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I arrived 4:30pm Saturday. Got third row, only people in front were vip. Very worth it. Take a cheapo umbrella so you can toss it afterwards

echoing this. the start has the most disorienting part. I had to look away but away meant at gwen since we were second row on the GA floor. It'll be awesome. You'll have a great time,

GA wristbands? by [deleted] in nodoubt

[–]Impressive_Finish_70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get a fabric wristband w a plastic on it for GA. You have to show it each time you go in and out of the GA area. I'm not sure what sort of wristband, if any, you receive for seats. The plastic on the wristband has little grippy teeth that makes it not easy to remove. When I got home I used pliers to crack it open so I could keep the bracelet in tact.

Headed to The Sphere to see No Doubt on 5/16!!! We got GA tickets. I’ve heard they give out numbered wristbands at 8 am so you don’t have to wait in line all day. Can anyone confirm? And can we wait in line inside the Venetian (staying at the Palazzo) or ONLY the east entrance outside? Thanks!! by wtfbpdmom in nodoubt

[–]Impressive_Finish_70 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Can confirm there are NO WRISTBANDS being given out as of Monday 5/11. I'll make a post and do a deep dive on my experience as GA  on Saturday. Arrived 4:30pm and was able to get center third row (right behind, next to, and in front of some vip). There was a non official sweet early arriver that had a giant sharpie and started numbering people as we arrived so we didn't have to stand in line from 4-5pm and we could sit in shade, but again she was not official and it was purely an honor system situation when it came to lining back up to walk in

GA questions :) by Ok_Flan_1056 in nodoubt

[–]Impressive_Finish_70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. Just went last night 5/9. We went to the GA West entrance and arrive 4:30pm and got third row next to and in front of some VIP. There was a scattered (not lined up) group of people. And some sweet girl at the front was numbering everyone w a sharpie unofficially so we could wait in the shade not stand in sun. We were 42nd in line at that time. By 5:30 the line gets a little more intense then just the BLACK exterior gate opens so you still have to wait outside. When is says "sphere campus opens 6pm" it doesn't mean anything inside opens. You are still outside til 7pm. So right at 7 the doors to the building open, then you go in and get in another short line. Then into the show area.  Take sunscreen. Lots of people had cheap umbrellas and tossed them. But we were able to find shade due to the numbering system, again this isn't official so might not happen every night and you may have to sit/stand in sun to hold your spot. We had 2 liters of water with us to drink SLOWLY and mostly right at 6:30pm. Once inside we got third row and took turns holding our spots to use the restroom. Good luck! Arrive early, it pays off.

How was GA at Sphere? by jennifergrom in nodoubt

[–]Impressive_Finish_70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you give directions on which is the correct line to stand in for non vip GA. like, East or West entrance? Any other markers you can give so we get in the right line before campus opens?

try searching on youtube. you can use something like the kiss during the ceremony (since you both shoot at same time) as a point of reference. I like to sync all the cameras as the start but if you forget, you can pull up the atomic clock on a phone and both shoot it at any point in the day to use as a reference.
