We all know the feeling of waiting in a queue to score tickets to see your favorite artist in concert. The anticipation as the clock strikes the time that tickets officially go on sale. Watching the number of fans ahead of you get closer and closer to zero. Hoping and praying that tickets aren’t sold out by the time you reach the end of the queue. Once you’re in and you breathe a deep but quick sigh of relief, you rush to purchase tickets before someone takes your seats. Finally, you’ve secured the coveted tickets to see your favorite musician in your home arena. Time to start prepping for that magical night.
You Don’t Want to Miss the Opening Act!
One of the cardinal rules of attending a highly anticipated concert is arriving on time. There’s nothing worse than hearing the artist go on stage while you’re stuck in line to get in. Avoid this by reserving parking with ParkMobile. With ParkMobile’s reservations feature, you can reserve a parking spot in advance of the event and have a guaranteed spot waiting for you at the venue. This eliminates the stress of circling around the block for a spot and helps you enter and exit the venue quickly.
With ParkMobile reservations, your phone is your parking pass, so no need to take a picture of where you parked or try to pin the location. Your car’s exact location can be found in the ParkMobile app, or you can even use the app’s “Find My Car” feature for additional help.
Concerts and sporting events are known to cause additional traffic, especially as it gets closer to show time. Be sure to give yourself ample time for travel so you don’t end up sitting in traffic near the venue. Arriving at the venue early will also give you time to visit the merchandise shop to get a tour t-shirt or poster before the show.

Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina
Located in the heart of Uptown Charlotte, Spectrum Center is home to the Charlotte Hornets and a plethora of concerts, shows, and live events. The arena recommends visitors arrive 45-60 minutes prior to the concert’s start to give them plenty of time to get into the arena and find their seats.
