Security
Public safety continues to be our priority. We take the safety and security of all our guests very seriously. When coming to the Arena we ask you to arrive early to allow time to pass through security checks, using Evolv Technology.

The UK Terrorism Threat is currently substantial. At Connexin Live, Hull we do a lot to keep you safe with some security measures that you can see and some that you can’t. We often have detection dogs at our sites, please remember they are working dogs, so please do not approach them.
