When I showed the barcode at the entrance, they exchanged it for a paper ticket and I was able to enter. There is no need to exchange it. Once you get to the entrance, you can enter. It was a little cheaper than the official ticket, so it was helpful!

Wonderful event, full of atmosphere. The quality of the food in the Lounge is also good. VIP tickets include drinks and food. It is recommended to arrive at least 1.5 hours in advance to enjoy it.

The bus is on time, the driver has a good attitude, and the interior of the bus is also very comfortable. You can ride directly by swiping the QR code. It is very convenient. I will choose this company again next time

Great experience, superb seats, great atmosphere, good package with credits at store and free F&B. Did not manage to go for the museum tour or stadium tour, but if fully utilised, I think it is good value.
