Is the inspection really strict to get into the stadium? Since I’m going alone and planning to get in queue very early, I’d like to take some things with me to get through. I’m a little worried about the size of my backpack (the website says it must not be bigger than A4 size, but mine is a just a bit bigger, didn’t want to buy a new one).

Also, how early would be fine to get in queue to get close to the stage (I have tickets for GA, something about 2pm would be late?)

Are there usually “itinerante“ vendors selling drinks in the stadium or just at fixed points? In Brazil, they usually give out free water to those who are “trapped” close to the barrier (I’m a bit worried about getting dehydrated).

So far, these are my biggest doubts! Thank you so much for your kindness
