Get Ready for the Ultimate Rolling Stones Concert Experience in Arizona – Beat Traffic with these Tips!
The Rolling Stones are rolling into Glendale, Arizona, and bringing a massive wave of fans with them for their upcoming concert on May 7. As the iconic rock band prepares to hit the stage at the State Farm Stadium, the city has issued a warning to drivers to brace themselves for heavy traffic.
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is gearing up for the influx of tens of thousands of Rolling Stones enthusiasts who will be descending upon the venue. With the concert scheduled for 8 p.m. and doors opening at 6 p.m., heavy traffic is expected on westbound Interstate 10 in Phoenix and Loop 101 (Agua Fria Freeway) in Glendale as concertgoers make their way to the show.
In a press release on Monday, ADOT urged all drivers to plan accordingly, allow extra time for their commute, and avoid behaving “like wild horses.” They recommended using Loop 202 South Mountain Freeway as an alternate route to bypass the traffic congestion on I-10 through downtown Phoenix.
For concert attendees planning to drive, the parking lot at the stadium will open at 4 p.m. However, with the high turnout expected, spots are anticipated to fill up quickly. To ensure a smooth arrival, ADOT advises starting the journey early to avoid missing out on parking opportunities.
Stay updated on real-time highway conditions by visiting ADOT’s Arizona Traveler Information site at az511.gov or by calling 511. Additionally, ADOT provides live updates on traffic conditions through its Twitter feed @ArizonaDOT.
With the city bracing for the massive traffic impact of the Rolling Stones concert, drivers are advised to plan ahead, use alternate routes, and stay informed through ADOT’s various communication channels. By heeding the warnings and taking necessary precautions, fans can ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience as they rock out to the legendary tunes of The Rolling Stones in Glendale.
