How it's used
Focuses specifically on the act of crossing the threshold into a ticketed or controlled venue like a stadium, cinema, or concert hall. It implies that there is a formal process, such as checking tickets or passing through a gate, rather than just walking into a room.
Examples
The cinema doesn't let people enter until five.
Have you bought your ticket yet? It's time to go in.

Common mistake
