Free Cycle Storage
We are excited to reveal that we have partnered with R-Evolution Cycles to provide a FREE secure cycle “cloakroom” available at Soccer Sensations right next door to Sewell Group Craven Park. This will make arriving and leaving the gigs by bike one of the easiest ways to travel.
Just ride to the gig and follow signs on arrival to the Soccer Sensations site. Here you will find the R-Evolution team waiting to exchange your bike for a ticket. Then at the end of the evening return to the park and collect your bike, simple!
You can reserve your free cycle storage by clicking here
What’s more, if you are among the first to arrive to the cloakroom and if you don’t already have them, we will fit a free set of cycle lights to help you get home safely. This is a part of our Dark Nights Cycle Lights scheme supported by Safer Roads Humber.

Road Closures
Local residents have been informed about the road closures which will be in place. A full version of the letter issued, and key details can be found here.
Please note whilst signage around the area indicates the closures will be for the full day, the intention of the traffic management team is to allow traffic to flow as normal as possible until 2pm where restrictions will tighten and become a full road closure by 3pm. Note, if the safety team deem it necessary to fully restrict vehicle assess before that time due the volume of people in the area, they will do so.
Wherever possible, please avoid any unnecessary journeys in and around the area, to help ease congestion, and allow extra time for your journey across both event days.
For residents who have multiple vehicles at their property requiring permits, please email your car insurance certificate which shows each individual vehicle registration plate and home address to concert@hullkr.co.uk.
The Traffic Management Plan for this event has been agreed with the local council, the emergency services, and the local Safety Advisory Group with a view to ensuring the public safety of those attending the concert whilst seeking to limit the inconvenience caused to local residents and businesses.
We are sure you will understand the Traffic Management Plan is in place to ensure the safety of the public and residents, and provide a safe environment which will ensure the City can attract major events like this again in the future which are so crucial to our local economy.
We are enormously proud, that alongside Wembley Stadium, the only other UK stadium to host the band on this tour, we are able to bring the world’s biggest band to East Hull for what promises to be a special two evenings for our area.
Should you wish to raise any concerns about the proposed plans, please contact concert@hullkr.co.uk.
Thank you for your understand and cooperation during an exciting time for the City.
