- Rely on public transport and official shuttle info on event days; on-street parking is limited and surrounding roads are often subject to temporary closures, so plan your return trip in advance.
- Check your ticket for a specified gate and sector entry and follow stadium signage - entries are strictly zoned, and using the wrong gate can add unnecessary walking and delays.
