Copenhagen questions

The copenhagen show will be my first concert ever and I am very excited!!!
But I do have some stupid questions...

Is it ok to bring a small backpack? Is it going to be crushed or something? Is it even allowed? (I have 10c tickets).

It's going to rain, what should I wear? Is it stupid to be wearing a rainjacket that I take off inside?

Does anyone know if the entrance is close to the stage?


I am so f-ing happy to go to my first PJ show!!!

    You can bring a small backpack.

    If you can go close to the stage it will be crushed:-)

    Why would a rainjacket be stupid? - bring it!

    The entrance is quite close to the stage - I would say 30 meters.

    Have a great show - can't imagine a better debut concertwise!

    I would recommend bringing a (not too expensive) poncho. If you want to keep it, ponchos are usually easy to stuff into a bag, but if it's not so expensive you could bin it upon entering the venue.

    When considering what coat/jumper to wear, bear in mind you may want to tie it around your waist later. So nice long sleeves could be handy.

    Backpacks are usually fine, but you could end up annoying the people behind you if it's large. Also, you could find it goes one way and you the other when in a bit of a moshing situation. So, the smaller the better!

    Last time I wore one of those rucksacks with strings. It was almost flat against my back. I usually try to wear trousers with secure pockets, so I can just put some money and my ticket in them so I don't have to bother with a bag.

    Don't forget to eat and drink while waiting, you don't want to lose your strength as the evening wears on.

    I'll stop now, cos I'm beginning to sound like an old smelly sock ;)

    Thank you for your very good advise, you old smelly sock ;). ha ha

    I was thinking of bringing a small, thin bag that i wear "in front of me" and not on my back. The weather forecast has changed from rainy to cloudy, so maybe we will be ok.

    if the venue contradicts pj's policy, you used to be able for pete, who is pj's head of security. not sure if that still applies.
