Usually, there is no age limit on who can come to events taking place at the Arena.

Some events at the Arena have a standing area on the floor and this area may not be suitable for children aged 14 & under and therefore we recommend that tickets should be purchased in a seated area of the Arena.

Lost tickets  

Please be careful with your tickets as it may not always be possible to issue duplicate tickets.

Should you lose your tickets please contact the box office immediately, either email sheffieldboxoffice@livenation.co.uk, call 0114 256 56 56 or write to Motorpoint Arena Box Office, Broughton Lane, Sheffield S9 2DF. Remember to state the name and address under which the tickets were booked and if known the seat numbers.

If tickets are lost then we should be able to organise duplicates - duplicate tickets will only be issued prior to entry to the performance - these tickets are never issued in advance as they override all other tickets previously issued.

Please be aware there may be a cost for the printing of duplicate tickets. 

Venue queuing policy  

On the day a show goes on sale we allow customers to queue up to purchase tickets in person from the Arena Box Office, but only on the day that the show goes on sale.

People queuing before this will be asked to return on the day that the show goes on sale. We will exercise our right not to serve anyone who refuses to comply with this policy.

This policy was introduced following incidents that have happened whilst customers queued outside the Arena to buy tickets. We owe a duty of care to anyone who decides to queue on our land and it was clear after investigations that we were not in a position to fulfil this obligation for customers who were often queuing for several days and some cases weeks at a time.

We were unable to provide staff to monitor the queue and ensure safety; the area isn't suitable for people camping out exposed to the elements; we often have events in the Arena that require clear entrance / exit through the area where the queues have formed; we have no services available such as toilet and wash facilities.

We are fully aware that for some fans queuing to buy tickets is part of the fan experience. We are not trying to prevent this, but simply place manageable parameters to enable customers to be able to purchase tickets safely. 

The Motorpoint Arena Sheffield Box Office sells tickets for not only events at the venue but for shows at Sheffield City Hall, Leadmill, O2 Academy Sheffield and many other venues in and around Sheffield via Arena Ticket Shop.

Tickets will be available by the Arena Ticket Shop online at www.arenaticketshop.co.uk, by phone on 0114 256 56 56 or in person at the Arena box office. Payment can be made by cash, cheque, Mastercard, Visa or Debit cards. Tickets booked for any event not performing at the Motorpoint Arena are subject to a 10% booking fee (minimum of 50p per ticket) however the tickets are paid for.
