SHOP FULL NY COLLECTION →MetLife is notoriously difficult to exit - the parking lots empty onto Route 120, which becomes a parking lot itself for 90+ minutes after sold-out shows. Take NJ Transit train from Penn Station NYC to Secaucus Junction, transfer to Meadowlands Sports Complex shuttle. Total 35 minutes door-to-stadium. Post-show, the train system handles the crowd in waves - much faster than driving. Joint Medley starts 10 minutes after the lights go down - do NOT be in the merch line at showtime.
