Traffic Advisory: Bruno Mars' The Romantic Tour at State Farm Stadium in Glendale
Bruno Mars' The Romantic Tour is set to take place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale for two consecutive nights, causing potential traffic disruptions and road closures during the evening rush. Glendale police are advising West Valley commuters to anticipate heavy traffic and delays, particularly between 4 and 7 p.m. as gates open and pre-show activities commence. The concerts are scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. each night, with near-capacity crowds expected.
Law enforcement officials will implement a traffic plan similar to that used for Arizona Cardinals home games, which may involve closures near the stadium such as Maryland Avenue and Cardinals Way. Sgt. Bryan Hoskin emphasized the importance of pre-planning and patience, as the area is anticipated to be bustling with activity. The peak congestion is anticipated in the hour leading up to the start of the show, prompting concert attendees to arrive early to avoid last-minute rush.
Drivers are encouraged to be considerate as traffic lanes fill up and vehicles navigate detours. Parking confusion can also contribute to delays, especially for those approaching from the incorrect side of the stadium. Glendale police recommend planning alternate routes, allowing extra travel time, and being prepared for slower-than-usual commutes during the evening rush on both concert nights.
