Parking Lot Information

Stadium parking lots open at 3 p.m. Parking is $40 for cars and motorcycles and $150 for buses, RVs and limos. For more parking information, visit the Gillette Stadium parking FAQ.

Showtime

The stadium gates are scheduled to open at 5:30 p.m. for the 7 p.m. show. Metal detectors will be in use at all the gates. Fans are asked to remove their phones, cameras and all other metallic items from their pockets prior to reaching the screening locations. Unlike procedures fans may be familiar with at the airport, stadium security will not be asking fans to remove loose change or keys from their pockets, and they won’t need to remove their shoes or belts.

Allow for Plenty of Time Around the Stadium

Due to the weekday evening commute overlapping with stadium traffic, fans going to the show are encouraged to arrive early. The usual traffic restrictions for local roads will be in place. Fans are asked to use Route 140, Interstate 95 and Interstate 495 to access Route 1.

Clear Bag Policy In Effect

Fans attending Friday’s concert are reminded that bags larger than a small wristlet or handheld wallet will not be allowed inside Gillette Stadium, per the venue’s clear bag policy, which is in effect at all ticketed events. If carrying a bag into the stadium is necessary, there are two options: a clear plastic bag the size of a 1- gallon Ziploc bag or a small wristlet or handheld wallet not exceeding 8” x 5” x 2” (approximately the size of a hand).

Please note that bags larger than the permitted size, including purses, shoulder bags, diaper bags and backpacks, will not be allowed inside Gillette Stadium on event day. Further, bags exceeding the permitted size will not be held or stored by the venue and must be returned to a vehicle before entering the stadium.

Prohibited items at Gillette Stadium include, but are not limited to: selfie sticks, GoPro cameras, camera bags, umbrellas, coolers, fanny packs, outside food and beverage, balloons or beach balls, noisemakers, signs larger than 11 x 17 and any other items deemed dangerous and/or inappropriate by stadium management.
