Almaty fans of Kanye West, who are already preparing to see the star on the stage of the Central Stadium, were recommended to download tickets in advance. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Kursiv Media.

The organizers, in agreement with local authorities, asked to temporarily restrict Tele2/Altel connection in this area for the correct operation of special technical equipment used during the concert and using the same frequency range.

It turned out that similar technical requirements were applied during events in other countries, including Georgia and Turkey.

Tele2/Altel met the organizers and the akimat's request, providing the necessary technical assistance for the concert.

"At the same time, Tele2/Altel uses all available technical capabilities to maintain the availability of mobile communications and the Internet for customers in the territory of the event. However, the temporary restriction of part of the frequencies, necessary to fulfill the technical requirements of the organizers, combined with the expected high load on the network, may in certain periods affect the speed of mobile Internet.

To make the concert visit as comfortable as possible, we recommend downloading tickets, QR codes and other information necessary for entry to the event to your phone in advance, before arriving at the Central Stadium," the city authorities said in a statement.

Earlier, Kursiv wrote that the city would take additional measures to organize traffic and public transport to ensure the safety and comfortable movement of spectators.

Concert Preparation

The Almaty akimat and organizers have taken a number of measures to ensure the concert. These include coordination with mobile operators, installation of technical equipment, and ensuring public order.

Reasons for Connection Restriction

The temporary restriction of Tele2/Altel connection is necessary for the correct operation of special technical equipment that uses the same frequency range. To avoid interference, the operator temporarily frees up part of the frequencies.

Similar Experience

According to the organizers, similar technical requirements were applied in other countries. For example, in Georgia and Turkey, mobile operators introduced similar restrictions during major concerts and festivals.

Recommendations

The city authorities recommend that spectators download tickets and QR codes in advance. This will help avoid delays at the entrance and possible inconveniences associated with slower mobile Internet.

Additional Measures

The city will also take additional measures to organize traffic and public transport to ensure the safety and comfortable movement of spectators.
