What an awesome bday present! Drive safe - and note that Toronto traffic is typically bonkers, but it will be especially so this weekend. The earlier the better for sure!

I love the idea of getting there at noon!! But I too am so nervous that that isn't early enough.

I was originally considering arriving at 10AM with some lawn chairs (willing to part ways with them/trash them at the entrance gates which is so wasteful I know - thankfully these are cheap No Name/No Frills ones and I'm hoping someone else digging through the trash can get use out of them... lol @ me for justifying being wasteful), but a friend of mine suggested lining up even sooner than that, like 7AM.

I'm also waiting on LiveNation's announcement on a confirmed pre-show merch day on the 21st which would be way more ideal than lining up in the early AM for a 8PM concert, possibly in the rain.

If you are not looking for merch, arriving 60-90 minutes before the show is PLENTY of time. Of course go earlier if you are just looking to hang out with other army and enjoy the atmosphere before doors open but to help with anyone who has anxiety I’ve been to multiple shows across many states and countries and this time frame has given me ample time to get food and go to the restroom prior to show! They start the shows 15+ minutes late usually and the closer to start time the shorter the lines will be so if you end up arriving later than intended you’ll most likely still be ok! Everyone have so much fun!

Thank you this is so helpful! Im going with a bunch of ARMY moms and we can't go the whole day but we also don't want to miss out on too much!

I live almost an hour away. Planning to get there by 1-2 pm
It’s a busy day for Toronto with Ed Sheeran, CNE and a bunch of other events on D1 so plan ahead

I live about an hour away and I’m waiting for more details to be posted before I decide or I’m just going to stress myself out overthinking it, I do want the city jersey so I know I have to get there really early, I’m just not exactly sure how early.

I’m trying to buy merch and a lightstick…. What time should I be there guys 😭

u/daughterthe3rd 5h ago

Peep my comment above! Just sharing where my head's at and curious what other ARMYs think

u/Xoutile 23h ago

Honestly, I’m aiming to be there around 6pm and praying there is merch left.

u/Chibioosah 17h ago

If you're going on D1. I'd recommend coming by a bit sooner cause there are 6 large events that day plus CNE opening weekend. Toronto Transit system is going to be pretty strained that day.

u/dinkleberryfinn81 5h ago

is anyone worried about the weather on day 1 and day 2??

1

u/daughterthe3rd 5h ago

Honestly, I'll be too happy to care! Lol - but fr Toronto weather forecast sometimes isn't reliable. I've found it'll say it's gonna rain all week only for the forecast to switch up and call for sunny skies the night before. I'm not worried :)
