KNOW BEFORE YOU GO! WEEKEND TRAFFIC ADVISORY FOR DOWNTOWN EVANSVILLE
Two major entertainment events will be held in Downtown Evansville this weekend, when the Ford Center hosts country artist Eric Church, and Old National Events Plaza hosts rapper and musician Nelly. Both events are scheduled for Saturday, November 13 at 8 PM with doors opening at 7 PM.
Nearly 14,000 concert-goers are expected between the two events, so attendees should anticipate heavy traffic downtown. Patrons, and especially those requiring ADA accessible parking, are encouraged to arrive early and enjoy local restaurants, bars and retailers prior to their show. Along with the free Civic Center lot at 9th and Walnut Streets, additional parking is available throughout Downtown, however, local authorities have recommended carpooling, taxis and ride sharing apps as convenient alternatives.
On Saturday night, guests can expect an increased security presence around the Ford Center and Old National Events Plaza to ensure the safe movement of pedestrians. Patrons are also reminded that both venues enforce a clear bag policy. While masks are no longer required at either venue, guests are encouraged to wear face coverings when not eating or drinking. More security information can be found on the Ford Center and Old National Events Plaza websites.
