Ticketmaster has warned fans who wish to buy tickets for the London leg of the tour at the OVO Arena they will have to study the seating map if they struggle with steps or are uncomfortable with heights.

Blocks N and S are within the tiered, side seating of the Arena. Even numbered bays (i.e. N6) are in the lower tier; odd numbered bays (i.e. N7) will be in the upper tier. Upper Tier seats are not suitable for those who cannot manage steps and the higher rows are not suitable for those who are unhappy with heights."
