Vegas Show Experts get in here!!

[T!M]

Ok so first of all, hi 

 

I'm Tim, and I'm from Ohio. I have never seen Britney in concert and have been asking my parents for years to get me to Vegas to see this show. So finally, I did something worth treating and graduated college, so my mom is taking my to Vegas as a gift! I'm going to the August 9th show and I got front GA standing left, and I want to be front row. So like... what time do I need to get there? Where do I go? Any other helpful tips would be so great! Thanks

From what I've been told by other GA attendees (i was in section 103 last time), it's kind of a free for all through security and to the GA section. There is several lanes for security that when they let you  in, you pick one and go through and then you go to the stage area. So even if you are third in line, it doesn't mean you would be the third person arriving to the section, it's all in how fast you get through security and get to the section. That said, you could be 35th in line and still get front row, it has happened for people. Most people don't get there extra early but probably 2 hours, what I would do is check out if there's a line at 4 and just keep checking back until you decide to line. There's shops right there and the casino floor is literally across the Axis entrance so you got places to chill while being close enough if you need to get in line asap if the line grows quickly. 

 

It seems you are going by yourself so just plan any restroom breaks etc wisely so when you get on the floor, you don't move. Several of my friends who were in GA said people like to force themselves to the front, you have to hold your ground. Pick your spot, don't move. You can also check out her costumes on display after the show so don't stop when you are through security. I can't remember what directions the signs say to go for GA so maybe someone else here knows.

 

And I've heard the corner where the corner front/catwalk is is one of the best spots but if that's taken just pick another spot asap. Anything bordering the stage will work really. And will go first

 

Hope that helps you some. Have fun! She's absolutely breathtaking and it will blow your mind how tiny and radiant she is in person. I'm going for my second and last time in October but I got regular seats cause I paid for a M&G and I'm broke now lol

Thank you that is very helpful! Do you have any tips on how to get through security quickly? 

[MakeMySugarFall]

I did GA-Left when I went. Honestly, my sister and I arrived about 30-40 minutes before the show as about to start and we still got right by the stage. But it's also a super small area so anywhere you stand is perfect. I could see her thigh muscles, it was insane.

 

Just don't bring anything with you when you head through security. I had a small purse and of course my tickets on my phone, but it took all of 30 seconds for both of us to get through. They check tickets multiple times on your way down (I wanna say 3x total?), but just have them out and ready and that goes pretty fast, too.

 

As Padme501st mentioned, that corner is pretty much the sweet spot because you get a great view from several angles. I got Willie to wave at me and nearly died. Either way, though, you'll have a blast. I'm glad they got you floor because it's honestly the best!

 

Oh, also be prepared for a shit ton of drunk people in the GA section. No one started anything or was too forceful, but still. A heads up.

[Padme501st]

Yeah don't bring much with you and make sure your pockets are empty and you got your ticket out until you hit the floor. Be prepared to make a quick decision as to what lane to go through and hope that the people in front of you doesn't take forever, most don't though.

 

Best of luck!

congratulations on your graduation and  I'm sure you'll have an awesome time. I did GA in 2015 and I got there super early like at 4 and the show didn't start till 9. Form what I have been reading the last year or so is that you don't need to get there so early.

 

Security checks you in really quick I had my phone and a go pro when I went. Once you are inside the theater you have to form another line before you get into the actual seats section. 

 

You will have an awesome view doesn't matter what part of GA you end up at. You're going to enjoy the show. I'm happy for you

Congrats on graduating and seeing Britney for the first time!!! 

 

I'm going to Piece of Me August 9th too!!! I'm doing my first Meet & Greet, I'm so excited but nervous at the same time 

 

My first time attending Piece of Me was February 2015 and I had GA-Left also. My friend and I lined up at 4:30 and we were third in line on a Saturday night show. August 9th is a Wednesday so lining up between 5-5:30 should be fine. At 7:30 they start letting you go through security. Once you go through security, people with GA tickets get split and you line up on the left or the right side (your case the left side). They make you wait a half hour until 8:00 and then open the doors for the theater.... then you wait an hour & a half (8-9:30) for the show to start. Make sure you don't drink too much because if you have to go to the bathroom you'll lose your standing spot.

 

Have fun!!!!

Well first of all, major congrats to you on graduating. That's a great accomplishment and certainly worth celebrating by seeing our Queen live.

 

As far as GA is concerned, I have next to no knowledge with that. When I went in 2015, I sat in section 103, Row A. My time was great, I had like the perfect viewing experience of Piece Of Me as a whole show. You really get to experience the concert moment in full where I was. Also I had time to walk around and explore the theater, take pics with her costumes, talk to other fans, get a drink or 2 with little to no hassle. However, the downside of that was that if I attempted to get up and dance the people behind me would get all bitchy. In GA, I've heard you can really dance around and party in the pit. So I guess both have their pros and cons but I've heard pit/GA is a lot of fun so I'm excited for you! 

 

Have a ton of fun, she is amazing live. YouTube videos don't do her justice on how beautiful and talented she truly is.

It seems to be the ongoing problem with front row, I attended Halloween 2015 and the people next to me were constantly bitched out cause they were standing and dancing. I was too but I was much shorter than them. What a lot of  casual attendees don't realize is that it's not like all the other Vegas shows where you sit in your chair and watch while drinking. They even tell you at the beginning that they encourage dancing etc.. no wonder Britney has more energy when performing the show elsewhere, she's feeding off the audience and the audience is half dead in Vegas

How was the meet & greet? and the show as well?

[Padme501st]

Update:

 

my plane got cancelled in Cleveland, of course...  BECAUSE THEY DIDNT HAVE ANOTHER PILOT! 

So that put us 4 hours behind schedule...

the show started at 9 and we landed at 7:15. We finally got off the plane and to our rental around 8 and i got dropped off at planet Hollywood around 8:15. My mom, her fiancé, and my brother went to check in to the hotel. 

 

So so after I got through everything I was like 5 or 6 people deep in the pit... I was so pissed. I wanted to be front row so badly but of course planet Hollywood wouldn't let us change our date to Friday considering southwest fucked us over. 

 

So I enjoyed my first Britney concert, she was so amazing. The energy, her beauty is unbelievable. She is sooo sexy in person and her expressions are everything. 

 

Regardless of if everything that happened, the rest of my family got to see like 5 songs at the end when they finally made it...I wish things could have went better but I'm glad that I got to have the experience to finally see Britney in person. 

 

Oh, and I got to see the crazy man run on stage lol. It was all over the news & all my friends thought it was going to be me 

[Padme501st]

I'm sorry things were out of your control and didn't go as planned but I'm so glad you at least got to see the whole show!
