Went last night. We parked at the fruit stand parking lot, which is dustier and farther from the events center but worth it to get out after the show. We got to the parking lot around 415, boarded the bus around five, and got to the venue around 545. After the show, the key is getting back to the shuttle stop. You need to walk quickly and with purpose, don’t delay for anything! We left before the fireworks show. You don’t need to see fireworks – you’ve seen them before. The key to the whole process is getting back to the shuttle stop queue as quickly as you can… By the time we boarded the bus and were leaving the line was horrendous. The ride on the bus from the shuttle stop back to the fruit farm parking lot was very quick, probably less than 10 minutes. We were able to leave the parking lot at the fruit stand with no traffic, and I was back home in Springfield just before midnight. My advice is to avoid the main parking area at all costs… I had friends there last night they got trapped in that line will past 2:00 to 2:30 in the morning. You can get out quickly…you just have to be deliberate and strategic about it all! Good luck! The concert and venue are amazing!
