What to Know Before You Go
- Best concert seating: Field seats are closest to stage. In reserved sections, the lower bowl (100s-140s) has the best sound and sightlines. Specifically, section 113 and row 6 of section 140 are consistently recommended by fans.
- Avoid these seats: Sections in the 200 level directly under the 300-level overhang have significantly obstructed upper sightlines. Seats 1 and 2 in any row are positioned in front of stairwells with high foot traffic.
- Parking: the real deal: On-site lots close to the stadium trap you for 45+ minutes to 2+ hours post-show due to single-exit bottlenecks. For faster egress, use Edison Park Fast parking at the Frank R. Lautenberg Station at Secaucus Junction, then take the PATH train. This adds 10 minutes to arrival but saves 60+ minutes after the show.
- Weather protection: If rain is expected, sections 121-131, 101-106, and 146-149 have overhead coverage. Other sections expose you to the elements.
- Cashless only: No cash accepted at concessions. Reverse ATMs inside convert cash to a prepaid debit card if needed.
