Multiple reviewers praised the live energy captured in the album, with its imperfections and crowd noise being present throughout, as well as the variety of styles that seamlessly blend together.

Initially, the song "On'n'On" was released on the official Justice YouTube channel on 26 March 2013 as a promotion for the full album.

Pitchfork also noted how they recorded tones of crowd noise, concluding that "even if you weren't there to appreciate the show in person, they'll make damn sure you know that 2,000 others did.

"[5] Consequence of Sound, in a three-star review, praised the variety of styles in the album, saying "Access All Arenas threads seamlessly from one track into the next, touching upon everything from Zeppelin-like riffage (“Canon”) and cock rock bombast (“Newlands”) to slick odes to ’70s funk and disco (“D.A.N.C.E.”), all underpinned by an omnipresent house beat.

"[4] PopMatters also commented on the performance aspect, expressing that "Justice actually does its best to play the music, rather than leaning on Ableton or some other digital interface to spit out slightly modified stems".
