Parking, transport advisory for concert

Petco Park issued a parking, transportation and security advisory for Sunday night’s Metallica concert, Aug. 6. With a sellout crowd expected, concert guests are strongly encouraged to arrive downtown early and enjoy one of the many restaurants and bars in the area. Parking lots will open at noon, gates will open at 4 p.m. and concert openers Avenged Sevenfold and Gojira will go on at 6 p.m.

Standard Petco Park security screening measures will be in effect. All guests must be screened via metal detectors prior to entry. Guests will be asked to divest themselves of cell phones, cameras, sunglass cases and other large metal objects before passing through the metal detectors and proceeding to turnstiles.

Guests will not be asked to remove their belts, shoes, jackets, wallets or coins before passing through the metal detector. An alternate method of screening will be provided for guests with strollers, guests in wheelchairs and those with medical devices that set off metal detectors.

Guests are encouraged to arrive early to minimize potential wait times. Entrances include the Home Plate Gate, Park Boulevard Gate, East Village Gate and Gaslamp Gate. Please reference the Petco Park Metallica entrance map for additional entry points.

Petco Park entrances include the Home Plate Gate, Park Boulevard Gate, East Village Gate and Gaslamp Gate.

Guests who choose to drive should pre-purchase reserved parking permits to guarantee their parking space. Parking is limited and will sell out. A link to purchase parking permits at ballpark-adjacent lots is available at padres.com/metallica.

Outside of the ballpark-adjacent lots, more than 2,500 parking spaces will be available at the 707 Broadway Garage, Horton Plaza Garage, Convention Center and Hilton Bayfront garages on Harbor Drive. To access these garages, use the Front Street exit from I-5 South, or the Cesar Chavez Parkway Exit from I-5 North. Additional downtown parking information is available at padres.com/transportation.

To avoid additional traffic delays, concert guests should consider utilizing public transportation. Metropolitan Transit System will run added special event trolley service. Park and ride locations with free parking are located along trolley lines. All three trolley lines will run extra post-concert service, with final departures approximately 60 minutes after the concert ends. For additional information, visit sdmts.com. Guests can also Uber and utilize a new designated ridesharing pickup and drop off zone located on Park Boulevard near the Convention Center. As the preferred ride share partner of the Padres, Uber is providing fans a free first ride (up to $15) by using code: PETCOPARK.

North County Transit District Coaster trains with service to downtown will depart Oceanside at 1:50 p.m., 3:34 p.m. and 5:15 p.m. on Saturday. The Coaster also will offer return northbound trains leaving from Santa Fe Depot at midnight. RegionPlus Day Fares include free trolley transfers.

Bags and backpacks no larger than 16-inches by 8-inches will be permitted. All bags, including purses, will continue to be subject to search for prohibited items upon entry to Petco Park. Standard Petco Park entry policies apply for the Metallica concert, with a few exceptions: professional cameras and video recording devices are prohibited, including GoPro cameras. Tripods and selfie sticks are prohibited. Banners, signs and flags must be smaller than 18-inches by 24-inches. Re-entry is not permitted for this event. Use of drones in or around Petco Park is prohibited by law. For additional information on parking and other details, visit padres.com/metallica.
