Liverpool arena set for Eurovision had “unacceptable” congestion at gig
Eurovision later this year has been criticised for having “unacceptable” congestion at a gig.The congestion happened at a sold-out Jamie Webster show back in November 2022, when crowds built up and some fans reportedly felt too ‘panicked’ to go inside. Following the reports, the venue has labelled the incident as an isolated event.At Webster’s show last winter, some fans complained that one area of the M&S Bank Arena felt unsafe after an electronic error meant that crowds began to gather in one part of the venue.According to an investigation, the area became crowded when a new bar payment system crashed.
