A logistics survival guide, not a listings magazine. What security will take off you, how to get out before the crowd bottleneck, and where to sleep without depending on the last metro.

Each venue has its own rules and they are nothing alike. At the WiZink you can bring a plastic bottle if you remove the cap; at the Metropolitano no bottle gets in at all.
Almost always, yes. The real problem is not the closing time, it is the queue: at the Metropolitano getting out eats 30 to 60 minutes.
If you arrive from out of town the same day, you solve this before reaching the venue. Afterwards it is too late.
