Question
Hi,
Have you ever been to the Sydney Entertainment Centre? If you have, could you please tell me what it was like to go there? Where do you purchase tickets (I'm guessing you need to buy tickets)? I have never been there and I'm writing a story where my characters go there but I'm at a standstill because I don't know what it would be like to actually witness an event at the Centre. Any information you have on the Sydney Entertainment Centre would be useful. Thank you

Answer
Sorry if I'm late with this reply but my computer has been under repair.
I have been there.  I would recommend you use public transport.  It's not all that far from Central Station and you can either walk it like I do or grab the light rail connection.
You can buy tickets at the venue or on line.
It's a large venue but the seating is arranged so everyone gets a good view.  For the two concerts I have been to it was arranged as three sides of a square with the fourth being the stage.
Acoustics are excellent also.
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Ian
