    It's 6/15 and 6/16.

    I'll probably just hit up the Saturday show.

    Here is a link to info in regards to using NJ Transit RiverLine to get to the venue

    http://www.njtransit.com/var/var_ser...merRiverLineTo

    Here is info on taking the Ferry from Philly to Camden

    Thanks for the travel info! Do you know if the River Line would have extended service for the Friday night show? The timetable PDF listed in your link say that the last train leaving the amphitheater is 9:30pm on regular Friday nights. I'll be a Camden first-timer this year, and I'm planning on doing PATCO from Philly because (from what I've heard) the ferry can have some long wait times.

    PATCO would be different than the RiverLine. Looking at PATCO's current schedule here (http://www.ridepatco.org/pdf/PATCO_T...2017-12-16.pdf) there are 11:02, 11:22, and 11:42 trains.

    That being said at Camden it doesn't hurt to start making your way out the door if you don't need to watch the band leave the stage. Getting out while there still playing can help you with the Ferry line or even the car line.

    Hello.

    Very excited for these shows.

    The 15th is my girlfriend's birthday and I want to surprise her with a party bus from King of Prussia to the venue filled with all of our friends. Anybody have any insight or experience as to whether bus parking is available at the venue? Don't want to show up and not have any place to tailgate/haul out and play cornhole on the curb cut between MLK and 3rd....

    I've never used it getting to/from a show myself but in the Ticketmaster app for the shows there is an advertisement for Uber so I assume they offer service there.

    they even offer this contact info:

    "Questions? Email Uber directly at supportphilly@uber.com"

    not the same venue, but it was easy getting an uber to The Mann but a nightmare getting one after the D&T shows last year.

    We moved out of the city at the end of 2016, but before that, PATCO was the best way back to Philly. Did it for years, no problems.

    Ferry is great going to Camden, awful coming back.

    Trying to decide between using Bristow or Camden N1 as my priority request. I'm leaning toward Camden since i feel that will be a harder ticket to get. Any thoughts?

    Is Camden N1 typically harder to get than N2? Or is the WH's "N2 seniority" thing kind-of make it redundant to set Camden N2 as a priority request? I'm asking because Camden N2 is currently my priority selection (4-year WH member), and I'm only putting in requests for Camden N1 & N2. Any help would be appreciated!

    Nevermind...in re-reading the WH's ticketing FAQs I see that the "Priority Show" has more to do with a request being selected to purchase tix to that show (no effect on seat assignments)...but the N2 seat assignments are based on seniority.

    This will be my first year requesting through Warehouse so I can't answer specifically about that process, but in general I've found Bristow to be wayyyy easier to get tickets than either Camden show through the other methods (citi, general onsale, boards).

    The one year I was locked into Bristow (2015) I was able to get a pit pair through the Citi presale, and I looked in 2016 during the Citi presale and was able to find good seats despite not pulling the trigger. Meanwhile, every year I've done the Citi presale for Camden (my 'home' venue) I've gotten nothing but lawns right at 10 am.

    In short: make Camden the priority, it's a harder ticket.

    I put in requests for Camden and the Gorge this year! My card was charged and it would seem that it coincides with Camden N1 and N2 amounts... Hopefully I am able to get Gorge tix too!

    I got them two years - 2014 (somehow I got upgraded to Pit and it was AWESOME) and last year I got 4th row which was also pretty awesome.

    What's not awesome is the fact that they raised the price from $250 per in 2014 to now $325 per. It was 275 per last year... So that's an increase of $100 since you have to buy 2 tickets.

    I didn't do premium packages this year. Instead I am crossing my fingers that I can trek across the country to the Gorge.

    Confirmed for a pair of N1 uppers. Requested lowers.

    Just hoping I’m in the front part of the 200 level. Sat in like row C last time and the seats weren’t bad.

    10 year member here as well. These are the only 2 shows I requested and knew I was just doing Lawn N2. Made N1 my priority request, requested lowers, and got confirmed.

    I feel like WH is worth it because you can get some good tix through it but in my experience, the seniority really means nothing.

    I got pit N2 in 2008 back when it was reserved, was awesome. My 1st year in WH. I think that's when N2 was completely random but not sure.

    Either way. I never bank on getting anything better based on my seniority because I haven't seen anything to make me think it actually matters.

    I am usually more than happy to go VIP, but this year I am doing the Gorge so I had to cut costs (and they increased the overall price of VIP by $100 this year)...

    Aside from the tickets being available at Public Onsale I think someone reaches out to you (the venue or Live Nation) to confirm that you meet the requirements for an ADA seat.

    You could always call the venue too. They should be able to help in some way.
