Question Digital cameras at concerts

Hi,
I'm from Poland and I'm going to Milton Keynes on Saturday. My first ever Bon Jovi concert I will have to collect my tickets at the venue so I called seetickets.com and asked them if I will be allowed into the venue with a digital camera with 12x optical zoom. The guy said that I shouldn't have problems with it but couldn't give me a 100% guarantee.

I post a link with a photo of the camera I'd like to take with me. Those of you who have been to concerts before, could you please have a look and tell me whether I might have any problems at the gates with this camera

Thanks a lot for your help

last weekend i was at the MK bowl for monsters of rock, the security guys only checked people's bags ( if they had bags ) & that was just a quick glance.
they never searched people's clothes or owt.

i was worried myself, because i had a digital cam on me, but it went ok

there were people inside the bowl with HUGE cameras & even camcorders.

i'm taking a bigger digital camera myself this time.

they'll only take cameras off you if it has an attachment or a really big professional camera, i wouldnt take a video camera as that would be taken off you. i remember one show someone got there camera confiscated during the show and kicked up a fuss but was given it back at the end of the show.
