Hi, I'm from the US & this will be my first trek to Europe. I'll be flying from Milan to London. What airport should I fly out of Milan? It looks there are 3.

My Gold Circle tix arrived in the USA today... pkg leaning against the front door...no signature req'd although I believe the email said I'd be signing!
It's all good, they're here... kinda cool that our names are printed on 'em!
Now waiting for the care package from Bern.
don't worry, you'll easily find your way to your seat.Quote

There is no entry number marked on the tickets. Do you know how it will be organized?
Which entrance to which sector?

Hard tickets arrived today.
They say the show starts at 19:30. It's a pity. The sun sets at 21:00 in Milan, in mid-June.
The Stones wait till sun set. At the Pinkpop Festival we could see this very clear: sun at the horizon, start of the show.Quote

Maybe someone here that's familiar with the layout of San Siro can help...
I am considering Section 105 (close to the stage on Keith's side) or directly across from the stage (section R). Normally side stage is best (I have a 7-year-old daughter so - no Pit) but the way the stage is placed longitudinally in San Siro, the seats opposite are closer to the stage than what they'd normally be with the stage at either end. Any thoughts from somepone thats been? Side stage or across? I want my L.O. to be overwhelmed :-)

I would pick Section R. You have a full view of the stage and more balanced sound. Actual distance from the band is more or less the same.
From section 105 you wouldn't see much of the screens (you would be more or less in line with the end of the catwalk) and I am afraid that he sound could be a little boomy.
In any case, the best solution remains gold circle, in my opinion. I my self am going there with my daughters, only a little older than yours

But the Gold Circle you mention is interesting. I've Pitted before and I imagine it won't be fun for my daughter after a few songs, but I never considered Gold Circle.
You say best option due to its being less crowded? Or, being further back might help with the obstructed view for a shorter person due to stage's height?

Hi all,
We are gong to spend several days in Milan prior to the concert. Anyone could kindly recommend some place to visit in/out of Milan? Also some good local restaurant? We don't really want to fall into tourists trap, especially if it comes to dining...
Thanks a lot!
There is a nice Japanese restaurant with very moderate prices.sagamiQuote

I visited Milan a few summers ago - this is a great pizza place (and relatively inexpensive) [m.facebook.com]

Thanks a lot! I'm looking for local dining rather than any other. Mostly budget but no problem with fine dining if there is something really worth.

in my personal order:
Venice (2.30 hours by train)
Stresa and isles(1.30 by car)
Sirmione (Garda lake) (1.30 by train to Desenzano + shuttle)(1.45 by car)
Padova's Cappella degli Scrovegni (if you're after the best of Giotto). It's mid-way between Sirmione and Venice
Closer destinations could be:
Bergamo Città Alta (50 minutes by car)
Como (50 minutes by car) - attention: you might risk to be disappointed
Have a nice stay!
