More than 11,000 fans are set to descend on the Seat Unique Riverside this Wednesday as Canadian crooner Michael Bublé visits the North East.

The music star is visiting the Chester-Le-Street venue on his ‘An Evening with Michael Bublé’ UK tour and will play the County Durham Cricket Club ground for one night only.

Concertgoers are being encouraged to make their way to the venue with plenty of time to spare as queues are expected.

Fans have been told to limit what they take to the stadium as security is expected to be tight to ensure everyone is kept safe.

Here’s the advice from the Seat Unique Riverside on what visitors can and can’t bring into the venue.

Bags

Fans have been told that each attendee is only allowed to bring one bag into the stadium, and they must adhere to specific rules.

Any bags larger than 35cm x 40cm x 19 cm will not be allowed into the venue.

Food and drink

The stadium has told concertgoers they are not permitted to bring their own food and drink into the stadium as there will be an extensive range of food and drink available to purchase both in the courtyard and stadium itself.

Unopened bottles of water smaller than 500ml will be allowed into the venue.
