Overall Rating
Excellent
We arrived at Murrayfield & were directed to handicapped parking which was close to the stadium; there were no hold ups or delays. A member of staff then took us to the entrance & left us at the lift where we were met by other stewards who were happy to help. Although there was a raised viewing platform for wheelchair users on the pitch (which was floored over) our seats were in an accessible section on the first tier. The view was fantastic & we were protected from the weather. The raised viewing platform, however, offered no shelter from the elements but I am unable to comment on the view or access though the access certainly looked good. Overall it was an amazing night with an electrically charged atmosphere.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
Access throughout was very good with stewards on hand at all times. The only aspect that I felt could have been improved was the lift which was only accessible for 1 wheelchair at a time. This was not a problem on the way in although we had an approx. 15 minute wait at the end but the staff made every effort to keep things moving. The seating was excellent & struck the right balance between a clear view & inclusivity.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
We drove and parked on site in reserved disabled parking spaces. There were no problems in getting parked, it was straight off the public road & a two minute drive on site.
Accessible Toilets
Good
Although I did not use them, there were 2 accessible toilets close by. They were clean & spacious with handlebars & an emergency cord. It appeared that the stewards were controlling access to these toilets.
Staff
Excellent
All the staff were really helpful & friendly & could not have done any more to help.
Additional Information
I definitely recommend it to others & hope to return for another concert although the next one has a lot to live up to.
