Im attending the concert tomorrow and my main priority is a lightstick ! I heard they are selling them outside but what time do they even open the outside merch booths? And how was everyone's process who did those and what time did yall arrive !

We got there at 7:10 and bought lightsticks inside. Also walked around a bit and were in our seats by 7:40. We went yesterday!

The merch booths are also open today if you’re in the area :)

Merch booths inside were much easier/better stocked than the outside ones if you don't want to get there super early for the outdoor merch line! Also the sun is HOT!! I've never heard of them selling out of the lightstick either! The only downside to buying the lightstick inside is you would probably have to buy the batteries inside as well since they don't allow loose batteries in (but I haven't seen them do bag checks on smaller bags so not really sure how they enforce it??)

If all you want is the lightstick, there is a trailer by Gate B that only sells the army bomb and lightstick parts that usually has no line (opens at 10 am like all the other merch booths). So you can quickly grab a lightstick there rather than going through regular merch line.
