My main suggestion is to allow EXTRA time for travel and arrive EARLY!ĥ4 Years ago to the day, to a crowd of 28,000, when it was called the Baltimore Civic Center. However, this arena will do IF an event OR artist you really want to see is performing here. The other downside is that there is really only 2 points of entry for showing your tickets for admission. The good news about this is that there really is NOT a bad seat in the house! The real downfall to this venue is the parking/driving situation, which is downright terrible in my opinion. Only a few cars get through each light! Leaving the parking garages is NO BARGAIN either! Plan on SITTING IDLE in your car for a good 30 minutes before you even get to begin exiting the garage after the event! I've seen the trolleys running in front of the arena and have considered checking into that route! The traffic lights are not timed and there is always lane closures due to ongoing construction. However, allow yourself 20-30 minutes extra time to just drive from I-95 to the arena, which is only about a 1.4 mile drive! Traffic is always terrible trying to funnel into the arena. It is just a SHORT drive (distance wise) from I-95. There are numerous hotels within walking distance. This venue is located downtown in the heart of Baltimore steps from Oriole Park at Camden Yards & just blocks from the Inner Harbor. Parking for the event in a neighboring garage for the event was $25. ![]() Parking is available at the arena or at other area garages. This makes entry somewhat time consuming, resulting in people arriving late the show despite being in the building ON TIME for the show. There were ONLY 2 employees at the top checking tickets. You then walk up ramps to the next level where you show your tickets for entry. Here you merge with the other foot traffic and are directed Left (odd seating) OR Right (even seating). From here they direct the flow of foot traffic into ONE area. Bags must be under a certain size, which I believe was 15 inches. ![]() Both entrances will have you go through metal detectors and submit your bags/backpacks for inspection. The one on the back opens into the Box Office Ticket Sales window. One on the front of the building enters into a souvenir stand. Getting into the actual arena is like herding cattle, as they only have 2 main entrances. Food is available for purchase, but we did NOT buy so I cannot comment on quality. I'm NOT sure if that is how it normally IS or IF it is just due to them opening the doors to let the Monster Trucks in and out of the arena on a cold, snowy winter day. There is ample space where they could place souvenir stands out the the way, but it is not done probably in order to obtain the most foot traffic/sales. They are placed in troublesome areas resulting in back ups when trying to enter and exit the building. Souvenir stands are limited & lines are long. There are BIG TV monitors suspended from the ceiling in the center of the arena to give you close up view of the floor action and in this case also post the scores from the events. Plus at the Monster Jam they provide you a website in order to vote on the competition, which is FUN. They have a few giveaways during the show. The floor space really is quite small to be hosting a Monster Truck show. ![]() The restrooms are WAY TOO SMALL for the amount of guests. We considered going to Philly this year for the Monster Jam since it is a large arena, but decided to go with Royal Farms Arena again since it is indoors (and protection from rain/snow). or one of its affiliates.We were here last year and enjoyed the show. ![]() All rights reserved.
