There's nothing quite like a concert at the baseball stadium in Philly. And tonight's show will be a special one as some of our favorite punk rock bands will be performing (with special guest Alice Cooper) at Citizens Bank Park in South Philadelphia on Friday, August 15th.
From setlists to parking to opening acts, we put together a list of EVERYTHING you need to know ahead of the show right here:
The official start time for the show is listed at 7:00 p.m., but of course, we know that the headlining acts will perform with a later start.
We have more insight for what we can expect posted below.
Yes! The group has been alternating opening acts so far on the tour. And Philly has quite an opening act! We'll get to see Alice Cooper perform as the opening act for the show.
We expect him to rock the stage starting pretty shortly after 7:00 p.m. He's expected to perform for about 45 minutes. So don't be late or you may miss it!
My Chemical Romance will hit the stage at Citizens Bank Park around 8:25, per our best estimates (via industry sources and Setlist.fm).
Of course, don't cut it too close. You don't want to miss ANY of this concert.
I'd recommend being in your seat by about 8:15. The set is pretty long, of course, because they have so many hit songs. We think their set will wrap up between 10:50 and 11:00 p.m.
The show is basically sold out. A VERY-limited number of tickets are still available on Ticketmaster.com, but they are mostly single seats. You can click here to check them out on Ticketmaster's website. There are additional verified resale tickets available on Ticketmaster.com, however.
You can also check resale websites like Stubhub, as well.Here are a few of those sites:
Parking lots will open at 2:00 p.m.

Unsure of where to park? Nearly all of the parking lots in the stadium complex are typically open for the show usually.
There are no other major events planned in the stadium complex on Friday evening so traffic shouldn't be too extreme.
