TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT

As with all major events, the venue institutes a Traffic Management Plan (TMP) for concerts. The TMP is designed to protect access for local residents and businesses and assist the safe and efficient flow of patrons arriving and departing the Stadium on public transport. 

BUMP IN / OUT

Bump in will run between 7am and 7pm. Some after hours work may occur during bump out. Work being undertaken at night will be contained within the Stadium. When works take place throughout the night, staff will be deployed externally to monitor noise levels. 

Through-traffic in Castlemaine Street during bump-in times will not be affected however, some parking spaces on the eastern side of the street could be used during these times. 

The bump in/out dates* for upcoming concerts are:

Foo Fighters: 31 Oct to 08 Nov (Show date 5 November)

Robbie Williams: 15 Nov to 23 Nov (Show date 20 November)

Guns N’ Roses: 30 Nov to 07 Dec (Show date 5 December)

*These dates are subject to change

CHIPPENDALL STREET

During the bump-in period through to the completion of the concert, Chippendall Street will be unavailable for local parking apart from those allocated special parking permits by Christ Church Milton. 

Truck parking will be contained to Chippendall Street, and drivers are instructed to turn off engines while stationary. 

Note: Traffic Control Officers will be present during bump-in and bump-out to monitor and control traffic and ensure safety. 

PARKING RESTRICTIONS & ROAD CLOSURES 

Parking restrictions within the Lang Park Traffic Area will commence from approximately 1 hour before gates on the day of the concerts and apply until 11.30pm those nights. All major roads and lane closures are shown on the maps on our Traffic Management Plan page here.

Unless otherwise marked on the event page, concerts will usually utilise a MAJOR Traffic Management Plan.

Traffic signs will be erected in the relevant streets and barricades will be placed and manned in these areas to enforce the restrictions. Offending vehicles will receive on-the-spot fines or be towed away if required. 

Local residents and business traffic requiring access to these areas on event days just need to inform security staff or Police that they intend on visiting a residence or business in the area. However, visitors need to remember the 15 minute on-street parking restrictions apply unless otherwise signed.

NOISE MANAGEMENT 

Suncorp Stadium engage specialist noise consultants to assist in the management of noise control measures for concerts and rehearsals. 

A team of sound engineers will be onsite for all sound checks and rehearsals. Sound engineers will be at the sound control panel and will be in communication with technicians monitoring noise levels at locations outside the Stadium to ensure levels remain compliant with noise guidelines. 

SOUND SYSTEM CHECKS & TESTS

Testing of the sound system will be conducted leading up to the concert.

Testing will only occur between 10am and 8pm and will not exceed three hours in duration on any day.

The times will be posted on the Stadium website event pages when confirmed.
