Traffic Advisory: Post Malone and Jelly Roll Concert at Rentschler Field in East Hartford
East Hartford drivers should be prepared for heavy traffic on Monday as fans flock to Rentschler Field for the Post Malone and Jelly Roll concert. The concert is scheduled to start at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 5:30 p.m. Traffic is expected to be heavy two hours before and after the event, causing delays on Silver Lane, Roberts Street, Simmons Road, and I-84 East and West. Motorists are advised to allow extra travel time, follow traffic signs, watch out for pedestrians near the stadium, and practice patience. Carpooling or using rideshare services is recommended to alleviate congestion, with designated pick-up and drop-off locations available. Parking at Rentschler Field will be on a first-come, first-served basis, with options to purchase premium and super premium parking passes in advance or on the day of the concert. The concert stage has been strategically positioned to direct amplified sound away from residential areas in East Hartford and Manchester, towards the RTX Technology Research Center campus and the Connecticut River. The East Hartford Police Department will have officers on hand to manage traffic and ensure safety during the event. The town appreciates cooperation in welcoming visitors to the community and looks forward to a successful event!
