Some Promming Advice please...

Hoping to be at the Mahler this Friday.
Would it be a mistake to head for the Gallery rather than the arena?

Depends on how early you are able/prepared to queue. I've never had a problem on busy/crazy nights when I've arrived at fiveish, got my queue tab and returned an hour and forty four minutes later

Don't forget it starts at 7 this Friday. You should be OK at half four or five, but it will be a long day queue. I would still opt for the Arena even if you won't be close. It's still the best place for the full scale of the Resurrection Symphony
