George Strait, renowned as the king of country music, is set to perform in Pittsburgh this Saturday alongside Chris Stapleton. The concert promises to be a highlight for fans of the genre.
Strait holds a unique record, being the only artist to achieve a Top 10 hit every year for over thirty years. With more than 30 platinum or multi-platinum albums, he ranks third in all-time certifications, trailing only behind The Beatles and Elvis Presley. Joining him on stage will be eight-time Grammy winner Chris Stapleton and Parker McCollum.
For those attending, essential details are as follows: gates will open at 4:30 p.m., following the ticket office opening at 3:30 p.m. The concert is scheduled to kick off at 5:45 p.m.
General ticket holders can enter through any gate, while those with floor tickets should head to Gate 6 located on Reedsdale Street.
Parking lots on the North Shore will be available for tailgating starting at 12:45 p.m. Attendees are advised to arrive early due to expected traffic congestion, particularly as this weekend coincides with Pittsburgh's Pride celebration, drawing additional crowds downtown.
Acrisure Stadium recommends using JustPark for pre-purchasing parking passes, although availability is limited. For a more economical option, fans can park downtown and utilize the T for free transportation to the venue.
The concert will adhere to the NFL's clear bag policy; however, attendees are encouraged to leave bags at home. If necessary, a clear plastic bag no larger than a 1-gallon Ziploc or a small handheld clutch is permitted.
Cash will not be accepted at Acrisure Stadium, which operates as a cashless venue for both concessions and merchandise. Accepted payment methods include credit cards, debit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
