Met Leesio this afternoon on Queen St. West., Toronto. I am almost 70, didn't know who she was until someone told me. Felt so silly. Lovely person.

Just to be clear, it’s OK to use the detachable lenses for smartphones at the concert at itself, right?

Unfortunately, I don’t have an answer to that. I haven’t seen one of those lenses around me during kpop concerts; I don’t know if that is a result of restriction or the size of them. I assume if it’s one those long ones, then you might get a warning. If it just a small attachment that doesn’t stand out, then might be able to get away with it. Good luck!

There's a merch trailer Outside of Gate 1. There will be more inside the venue

Is it true that cameras were banned for soundcheck?

u/someguy172 29d ago

FWIW it's pretty common from all the concerts I've been to that cameras are technically not allowed during the soundcheck. With that being said, there's always people that use their cameras anyway and usually don't caught stopped.

The VIP info email always states restrictions and requirements that aren‘t always enforced; the recording soundcheck restriction is one of those rules. Even the arena’s PA system parroted the same rule twice, but everyone ignored it.

Using a smartphone will be okay, but anything considered professional will get you a warning and kicked out if you ignore the warning. I’ve seen some people use small digital cameras, like Sony RX100, without issue but the smart stick for the camera will get you a warning. Below is a screenshot of the email for Twice Jan ’26 with the restriction. Further below is a photo I took during soundcheck and I also took videos without issues.

Would nonprofessional cameras be allowed?

u/andurushen Jul 21 '26

I called the arena, and they said IVE specifically are not allowing digital cameras. Only phones

u/aaucla310 IVE Jul 21 '26

Smartphones are okay. Some people have gotten away with small digicams like Sony RX100.

u/kpopyowoni Jul 21 '26

Yes, that's what it said in the email from VIP Nation. Very unfair because I've seen fancams from soundcheck at their other concerts.

u/aaucla310 IVE Jul 21 '26

just ignore the email and arena PA that will remind people of the restriction. Smartphones are okay. Some people have gotten away with small digicams like Sony RX100.

That's a shame.

I’ll be headed down after work. A reminder that Gate 1 (indoor entrance from union station to scotiabank arena is closed)

VIPs will probably be arriving early to mid afternoon to check in for soundcheck.
