The Need-to-Know Before You Go

Get Ready - Here's What You Need To Know

COME RAIN AND/OR SHINE
The show will go on whatever the weather. Unless it’s looking extra gnarly. Check our socials for any changes.

GATE TIMES
You can usually roll up 60-90 minutes before showtime but check your specific event page and socials for exact timings.

PARKING LOTS
Parking lots usually open an hour before the scheduled gate time. Free general admission parking comes with your ticket. If you want easier entry and exit, go for Premier, VIP, or EZ-Out parking.

DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP AREAS
Check out the parking map on our "Visit" tab to see our designated pick-up and drop-off areas. Let parking staff know you’re dropping off and they’ll show you the way. When picking up, arrive 45 minutes before the end of the show—you won’t be able to enter otherwise.

WHEN YOU GET HERE
You know the drill—metal detectors, maybe a pat down, and a bag check if you’ve got one. Be prepped—check out our bag policy, and what you can and cannot bring in our FAQs.

MOBILE ENTRY
Your phone is your ticket. Before you set off, download your tickets to your phone on the Live Nation app. More info on mobile tickets here.

Phone troubles? Visit the box office on event day for assistance. Be prepared to show your ID.

BAG POLICY

Clear bags up to 12” x 6” x 12” are A-OK. Small clutch bags up to 6”x 9” don't need to be clear. All bags will be searched prior to entry. Check out the list of what's ok to bring inside, and what isn't. If you have any items that are not allowed into the venue, you can either return them to your vehicle, check your bag for a small fee, or purchase an approved clear bag.


CONTACTLESS PAYMENTS ONLY
We’re a cash-free venue. If you arrive without a debit or credit card, head to guest services and they’ll exchange cash for card (for free).

BOX OFFICE

The box office is open Monday, Wednesdays, and Friday from 10AM-5PM and on show days from 10AM until the headliner goes on stage. You can purchase tickets and upgrades at any time online.

THE MERCH
Find that coveted merch at our Concert Gear booths in the West plaza. For some events, you’ll find extra booths in the east and west plazas.

DESIGNATED DRIVERS
Are you the responsible fan tonight? The Jack Daniels’ designated driver program has you covered. Pick up a special poker chip from guest services and you can enjoy free fountain sodas at any of our drink concessions.


RECYCLING
You’ll find recycling bins throughout the venue.

CAMPING
We kindly ask that you leave the camping gear at home and refrain from overnight parking.

TAILGATING
Yes, you can hang out with your friends before the show. You can add-on early bird parking to your ticket to get the party started as early as possible. Once the gates open, you’ll be asked to head inside the venue.
