Just the shopping area - you have to buy a 'full' ticket to access the Caldene.

Not sure if you want to risk it but I've never had a ticket checked in the last 5 yrs to get into the caldene arena only checked for the main one x

I've had my Caldene Arena ticket checked when it was approaching capacity - nearly missed the class I was there to watch, as stewards were monitoring number of people leaving before they would let anymore in....

well as the caldene arena is first come first served i sincerely hope that as i purchased tickets i manage to get my bum on a seat for the performances i want to see! I would be furious if i couldn't get in if people on shopping only tickets were there instead! Not trying to start a war, just saying. I saved up to buy my tickets!

If you buy a 'shopping only' ticket you have to use a different entrance which only leads into the shopping area & cannot access the main or caldene arenas without showing a valid 'full' ticket.
You don't have to show your ticket to access the Caldene but if you have 'shopping only' you can't get to the Caldene entrance - Caldene is first come first served so you have to get there early on M&M day as one year they were turning people away due to being full.

Apologies didn't mean to upset anyone with my comment:( I've always paid for a full ticket and never had to show it to get from the shopping village into the caldene only to get into the main arena is what I was getting at didn't realise there was a seperate enterance for shopping only? I know they've buckled down on tickets this year after speaking to them this morning we have a trade stand there this year so have 2 x privilege tickets to see the whole show but there will be 6 different people working throughout the week and they won't let us share them between us so we've had to purchase full price tickets for the times we want to see the show even though we've already paid ££££'s for the stand, still can't wait mind Thursdays my day woohoo good luck everyone and if anyones got a spare minute come and visit the MOJO stand!!

You're MEANT to have a full ticket to get into both arenas, but don't think they're checked as regularly in the caldene as they are in the international arena? I'd play it safe & do the right thing, by buying a full ticket.. which you have done

I've been checked wether I'm a competitor having a mooch or just spectating on a different day, I'd buy full ticket to make site you get in.

The past two years I have had to go through a checked gate to get from the shopping area to the Caldene arena - unless people have found a different way??

My friend bought a shopping ticket last year (Intending to have a good shop around) & ended up watching in the Caldene Arena all day! They said they just walked in & no one checked their tickets. They didn't know they weren't supposed to... We bought full tickets last year for front row seats in the International arena, only to get awful seats in the Caldene & not able to see properly for ages! In the end, we just wandered around until some people left. You pretty much just pay for your seat in the International Arena, the ticket doesn't give you a specific seat in the Caldene arena, people were standing up last year! Modified for awful spelling!
