MTV Presents Trafalgar Square All You Need To Know Event Information

If you're coming to the show on Saturday 11th November, read this essential info...

MTV’s biggest priority is that music fans have a very positive experience at historic Trafalgar Square on 11 November – in a safe and secure environment - and we have been working closely with a variety of partners and stakeholders to ensure that this is the case.

Security & Safety
There is nothing more important than your safety. Detailed and thorough security searches will be undertaken before anyone can enter the site which will include searches, security arches, metal wands and more. Please allow extra time for this – and to ensure speedy access for you, and other guests, it’s recommended that you travel as light as possible.

Tickets
You will only be admitted if you have a printed e ticket for the event, obtained via the MTV Presents Trafalgar Square public ballot, www.mtv.co.uk/mtvpresents which was run in conjunction with Ticketmaster. Please note that ticket bar codes cannot be scanned via smart-phones. The ticket ballot is now closed and tickets will not be available on the door.

Please note that this is a standing event.

Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult (+18)

To guard against touting, a maximum of 2 tickets can be obtained per person. Tickets will take the form of e tickets, with the name of the person that obtained the tickets integrated. ID checks and name checks will be carried out across pairs of tickets– no name, no admittance for both of you! Tickets are strictly non-transferrable and cannot be exchanged or sold to a 3rd party.

There will be no re-admittance, so if you leave MTV Presents Trafalgar Square, you won’t get back in.

The event will be fenced, for the safety of event guests – and those visiting, living or working in Trafalgar Square and the surrounding area. All tickets have been allocated, so if you don’t have a ticket, please don’t come to Trafalgar Square as you won’t be able to see anything!

If you have a general enquiry about your ticket, please contact go to the Ticketmaster Box Office at Entrance 1 at Pall Mall East on the day of the event.

Travel & Transport
There are a number of other events, unrelated to MTV Presents Trafalgar Square, but on the same day and in the same area, that may also impact journey times.

With this in mind, we anticipate that stations within the vicinity of the event will be much busier than usual between 4pm – 6pm - and after 10pm.
• Charing Cross (Bakerloo, Northern lines and main line station)
• Embankment (Bakerloo, Northern, District, Circle lines)
• Leicester Square (Northern, Piccadilly line)

Stations may temporarily close if TFL deem in necessary to guard against overcrowding. Additionally, road closures around the site will mean some local bus services will be diverted or terminate earlier than usual.

Thanks to the support of the team at TFL, live updates can be found by going to TFL’s Journey Planner and Live Status Updates will also be available to ensure an efficient journey to and from the event. Keep checking updates to ensure that you can get home quickly and safely.
