Review of Gateshead Stadium Indoor & Outdoor Christmas Market

Overall rating: 1 Verified review

Horrendous organisation, no structure to entering the car park. More than 40 minutes wait on the road, no structure to parking the car. Attendants have no answers to questions (probably also overwhelmed due to poor organisation). Asked to get tick*ts but then no advantage to having tick*ts (hour + long queues to get in the door despite tick*ts).

Plenty of stalls lots of choice , but it was so busy, you couldn't look on both sides . Not enough food vans. Parking wasn't very good. The queues were horrendous took us an hour to get in. Empty parking spaces in car park directly outside the Stadium but security weren't telling people to go in there I counted over 12 spaces waiting in the queue.

Pointless having tick*ts for allocated time had to wait an hour to get in anyone just turned up without tick*ts I know it was free but should have had a fast track system in place for those who bothered to book there was no Xmas atmosphere so overall it was very disappointing as for the hog roast I take it that was on the burger van and I'm yet to find the mulled wine I had no children with me thank goodness as they would have waited in a very large queue to be sadly disappointed I expect I hope you will take these issues on board when planning your next event well done to your security team who seemed to the queues extremely well those tick*ts I downloaded where a waste of time and you didn't organise it well enough for the amount of people that turned up no tick*t no entry next time PLEASE

The queues were horrendous. No one knew where the back of the queues were. No one in charge to organise things and even though I had a tick*t I had to queue up with people who didnt have one. What a shambles

There was no where near over 200 stalls, too many people in the venue, no health and safety measures followed, ridiculous amount of time had to wait to even get parked, hardly any christmas stalls at all, and not all the food stalls that was advertised absolute disgrace and the company who organised it need to take good look at there self's as they obviously are rubbish at organising these events.

there was little guidance around where to park. I had a disabled person with me no guidance or signs as to where disabled parking was which I later realised was right at the front of the building. getting in and out of the carpark was difficult as both in and out were the same small gate. would have been better one for in and one for out. although we had to give a time for our tick*t no one checked it and there were people in the queue who had no tick*t or who had just come whenever regardless of time on the tick*t. and then a queue of over an hour to actually get in. again more difficult with someone with a disability. once inside there was no system so it was difficult to navigate as people were all over. would have been better with a one way system perhaps. not really big enough for the amount of people in the room

Absolute chaos. No organisation for parking or queuing. Tick*ts not checked.
100's with no tick*t. Queued to enter despite timed tick*t, then had to queue again to get to inside stalls.
Catering very poor.

We travelled 2 hours to this event only to find utter chaos on arrival as the queuing system was not monitored. People who had just arrived were allowed to go in through a back gate ahead of people who had queued for nearly an hour. We eventually made it in but it was so busy once inside you were expected to queue again for the inside stalls. I attended believing this was a tick*t event but most people did not have a tick*t and there was no separate entrance for tick*t holders. I will not be attending again.

Waited an hour to get inside. Queue was poorly managed. No entertainment/music to occupy the wait. No information given when in queue. Security poorly managing the road and public, shouting and swearing infrastructure of children
