What does “ Self-declared exemptions will be permitted “ mean ?

Good question? I took it has telling them you were negative or double jabed if they ask you that question?

Presumably without the need for any proof if the door staff deem it unnecessary, maybe a few weeks down the line when door staff start that one on one relationship with some fans, they've seen your double jab passport etc so many times they have no need to see it and except your word for it knowing they have seen it previously.

If thats the case, that anyone can just say they are double jabbed when asked and will be believed without proof it makes a charade of the whole business !

So did you just show your tickets at the door and off you go then with no questions?

There was a guy checking Covid stuff on the stairwell before we were allowed up to our door queue, just showed test result email and he let us up. They were taking paper vaccine cards as proof too which wasn’t mentioned on the arena site.

Bag checks as per usual, as long as the bomb isn’t on the top then you’re fine. So easy to conceal cheap snacks and even cans of beer if you’re sneaky.

Well no one checked me or other people I spoke to seems a casual sort of thing did notice they wore masks to go into boxes but didnt bother about the great 'unwashed' around the arena

Yes just turned up to the door showed our tickets, got scanned with a security wand and went in. Didn’t ask for anything COVID related. Inside very few, and I mean only a small number, wore face masks.
