Seat confirms aren't up yet. When they are, you'll see what section and row you are in, but not seat numbers. It is on the left hand side of the ticket confirmation page in WH.

With that being said, I elect myself to be the first person in line to purchase your tickets should you need to sell them. K thanks

Thanks! I’ve done WH for years. You’d think I’d remember that. Unfortunately, likely won’t sell them if I can’t trade. Although I am a huge fan of the Hartford lawn, I like the option to run back & forth

I have never bought premier parking beforehand. Just get there early and pay the $60 at the gate. Works every year. Otherwise, keep checking Ticketmaster & other ticketing sites. They’ll release more periodically up until the show. (Source: Family member works for LiveNation)

Live nation has premier parking available

This. I have been tailgating here for the past 5+ years after Champion Auto closed. Such a fun time

Making a first time trip up from MD for this show. I have a few questions:
1. Is the Hilton walkable to the show? I saw it is about 1.5 mi away or about a half hour walk but I don't know the area.
2. Is Uber or taxi an option?
3. I am only in town for one night. What brewery or restaurant nearby should I hit up pre-show. (wife is making the trip with me an not a big tailgater, unfortunately)

I wouldn’t walk from the Hilton. Not because it’s too far but because the neighborhood isn’t the safest. You can uber for sure, but it’s hard to get one after the show unless you walk for a bit.

For beer/food close to the show, check out New Park or City Steam.

the neighborhood isn’t safe. Got that right, north end of Hartford is a mini Detroit

Exactly. I lived on the downtown/north end line until a month ago. Had to get tf out of there. In West Hartford now and it’s like a different world lol

Right; so not walking, parking in one of the private business lots nearby (any recommendations I can put into Google Maps), and north Hartford is mini 8-Mile. What hotels and section would be recommended then?

If you take an uber before the show you will be sitting in a lot of traffic

Basically any business on Jennings road for parking.

Hotels? Do you want to drive back to a hotel or walk/taxi/uber?

They just built a hotel at the Citgo lot which is very easy walking distance...centennial inn or something, not a major chain but it’s not even a year old.

Or if you drive - look in Windsor near the airport. 15 min drive once you get out of the traffic around the venue

I was sitting on BT side in 2016 first row of seats behind the pit on the inner aisle, in other words right next to pit entrance. They were very strict first half of the show but the second half began waving people through left and right. It was interesting to see.

Anyone want to trade lower reserves for pit?

WH screwed me with seat assignments. Are 600 FFF even worth it or should I sell and settle for lawn? Never been anywhere but pit/lawn for Hartford.

Ill agree, how is 500 QQ in the $115 bracket for Pavillion? I get denied for SPAC and end up with a 4th row balcony for both nights on ticketmaster. Then I get Warehouse Hartford confirmed and get stuck with a back pavilion thats probably 10 feet from being the $85 tickets. Im praying this tour is somewhat decent for the future of this band sake.
