Chris Stapleton Charlotte traffic plans change on Saturday, June 20, when Tepper Sports & Entertainment puts new patterns in place around Bank of America Stadium for Chris Stapleton’s All-American Road Show. Fans heading to Uptown Charlotte should expect a different approach to getting in and out of the stadium area.
Eric Sudol on the change
Eric Sudol, the chief revenue officer at TSE, said, “The volume of activity in Uptown Charlotte reflects a healthy, growing city that has changed significantly since Bank of America Stadium was built over 30 years ago.” He added that the new traffic patterns are part of an ongoing effort to improve the flow of traffic around the stadium on event day.
He also said, “While this is an ongoing process, we are working together with city and community partners to improve the flow of traffic around the stadium on event day and are committed to improving the experience for our fans and event attendees. We’re asking fans to stay with us – these new traffic patterns may look different at first, but they are designed to help fans get where they are going safely and more efficiently.”
Partners in Uptown
Tepper Sports & Entertainment is working with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, Charlotte Department of Transportation, CATS, and Charlotte Center City Partners on the updated setup. Ambassadors will be stationed throughout Uptown on Saturday to help direct people, adding another layer of guidance for arrivals and departures near the stadium.
For drivers, CDOT is steering them toward Waze for alternate routes to the stadium, while BankofAmericaStadium.com carries updated traffic and parking information along with public transportation options. That gives fans a concrete planning path before they leave for the concert instead of trying to figure out the changes on arrival.
BankofAmericaStadium.com and Waze
The practical move is simple: allow extra travel time, review the updated traffic and parking information in advance, and consider alternate routes or arrival times when possible. The new patterns are meant to reshape vehicle and pedestrian flow on a busy event day, but the first pass through the area may not feel intuitive.
Which specific streets or traffic routes are changing around Bank of America Stadium? Tepper Sports & Entertainment has not laid those out in the available announcement, so the safest play is to plan early, follow the updated directions, and use the stadium site and Waze before entering Uptown Charlotte.
