Vocal Duo of the Year Florida Georgia Line will be playing at Bowling Green Ballpark on Friday, June 20 with Multi-Platinum Superstar Nelly, and opening act Chris Lane. Information on parking, street closures and other details of the concert are as follows.

Designated parking areas have been set-up by the Warren County Downtown Economic Development Authority throughout the downtown area for the concert; including the Hitcents Park Plaza parking structure. Each designated parking lot will be marked and will officially open at 5 p.m. Patrons will be charged $5 to park. While there is limited, free street parking available, caution should be used when parking in non-designated, private lots.

Once parking areas are full downtown, patrons will be directed to park at Western Kentucky University’s parking lots at the intersection of Adams Street and Kentucky Street. Shuttles will begin operating at 5:30 p.m. and will run until 12:30 a.m. or until all patrons are accommodated. These shuttles will only stop at the ballpark and patrons will not be charged for utilizing the shuttle service. The show is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. with gates opening to the public at 6 p.m.

The following street closures will also take effect beginning at 3 p.m. Center Street will be closed from the BGMU entrance (closest to the ballpark) to 8th Avenue. 8th Avenue will be closed past the entrance (closest to the ballpark) of the Hitcents Park Plaza parking structure to Kentucky Street.

Upon arrival at Bowling Green Ballpark, fans may enter through the main gates (located across from Center Street) and the third base entrance (near Kentucky Street). Fans with bags and/or purses will be checked by ballpark security prior to entrance into the ballpark. Fans with field tickets will be given a wristband prior to entering the facility by staff. All field and seating bowl tickets are general admission. Wristbands will be distributed at the tent set up on the front plaza near the Center Street entrance.

As with Hot Rods games, smoking will not be permitted inside Bowling Green Ballpark. Fans wishing to smoke will need to go to the designated smoking area located outside of the third base (Kentucky Street) gate. 

Fans who purchased tickets online and requested pick-up at Will Call are strongly encouraged to pick up their tickets at the Hot Rods Ticket Office prior to Friday. The ticket office will be open 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. for the remainder of the week. Fans will need the confirmation number and photo ID to pick up Will Call tickets. 

This is a RAIN OR SHINE EVENT so refunds will not be granted based upon the weather. The stage will be set in centerfield along the warning track. The show order, which is subject to change, is Chris Lane, Nelly, and Florida Georgia Line to close.
