Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime. This window gives you time to park, clear security, grab refreshments, and get settled — especially important for large or sold-out events. Early arrival also helps you choose a great lawn spot and beat peak entry lines.

This is an outdoor, open-air venue and events are held rain or shine. Check the forecast and dress for the weather — lawn seating is uncovered, so bring rain gear if showers are expected. On sunny days, consider sunscreen, a hat, and a light layer for cooler evenings.

There’s moderate walking from the parking lots to the entrance along paved paths, with courtesy shuttles available for guests with mobility needs. Rideshare zones are close to the main entry, and leaving a bit early or staying a few minutes after the encore can help you avoid traffic.
