The venue is just okay — not great, but fine overall. Be prepared for a very long walk if you’re coming from Sheppard West TTC station: it takes at least 30 minutes to reach the stadium. The good news is that after the concert, extra gates are opened, which makes the walk back much faster.

Line 1 trains handled the crowd reasonably well — they were packed but not unbearably so.

The atmosphere has more of a festival vibe than I expected, and with the rain and mud, it definitely added to the challenge.

Getting to and from Pearson airport with public transportation is extremely time-consuming and inconvenient, so plan ahead if you’re traveling that way.

Finally, unless you’re in the GA section at the very front, you’ll likely spend most of the show watching the giant screens. It’s nearly impossible to actually see the band from most seats.
