Coop Live
Went to watch Robbie Williams 10/6/25. The actual venue is amazing, plenty of toilets and food/drink stands/bars. I didn’t have to queue for any of these which you do in other venues such as Sheffield where I have been many times. The traffic on approach to the venue was busy - we waited about 15 mins. We were parked in the blue car park but if I go again I will definitely look at parking further out and either getting the tram in or walking. The cost of parking is steep - £25. Getting into the venue was pretty smooth - we didn’t queue for very long. We entered into section C which took you to the ground floor. The entrance area is huge and lots of space, I didn’t once feel crammed in. The price of food and drink is ridiculously high. £9 for a pint and £36.50 for a bottle of wine. However this was similar to Sheffield Arena so I presume they are all pricing similar. They have coop stores inside which was a good touch - but again the prices in here were ridiculous £4.90 for a pack of maltesers and I think around £3.90 for a can of pop. We were sat I section 307. The view was fine. However the seats have drinks holders between them so this takes away some space and you feel pretty crammed in. If you are a larger person you will feel snug!! When the concert finished we went through what looked like an emergency exit and we were back at our car in around 5 minutes so this was really smooth. However it took us 1hour 15 minutes to get out of the car park. It was a free for all. More stewards were needed to keep drivers under control. Overall I much preferred this venue for its facilities inside. All the staff we came across were great 😊 however the seat sizes let it down as did the parking.
