I looking for some help for someone who's been to the PNC Arts Center. We have tickets (pavilion not lawn seating) for a concert this Saturday night. I have directions but need other info like ....
How bad is the pre-event traffic? How early do people usually get there?
I heard that people 'tailgate' prior to the concert. Is this for all events or just 'rock' concerts?
Is there a better or worse place to park? Is it a trek from the parking lot to the pavilion?
Any other advice re: food, travel, etc.?
I figure if any group would try to help with this one it would be the DISers of New Jersey!
UPDATE: Just wanted to thank everyone who helped with this thread. The info was tremendously helpful. We got there about
2 hours early, found a perfect parking space, had a picnic near the car, and saw the best darn concert I've seen in a long time.
Bonnie Raitt and Lyle Lovett were amazing!!! (And Snoopy, if
you're listening.... she sang "Angel from Montgomery." It brought the crowd of 17,000 to a standstill!) Again, thanks everybody for giving us the inside info we needed to make our 17th anniversary
evening absolutely perfect.
