Add to CalendarOn Saturday, July 12, due to the size of this free ticketed event, Central Park will be very crowded. Between 72nd and 86th Street, the park will be closed, though all playgrounds except Spector Playground (West 85th Street) will remain open. We suggest that you instead enjoy the north and south ends of the park.
If you are a Bon Jovi concert ticketholder, don’t forget your ticket. All tickets will be scanned, and due to space constraints, no one will be admitted without a valid ticket. Portable toilets and concessions will be available inside the concert.
Prohibited items:
Alcohol
Cameras/recording devices
Chairs
Glass/metal containers
Radios
Coolers
Large bags or backpacks
Strollers
Weapons
Umbrellas
Other items prohibited by the city and concert promoter
No banned items will be allowed into park and discarded items will not be returned.
A person with a disability who has a ticket to the concert, plus one guest with a ticket, may enter the Park at East 85th Street and 5th Avenue. There is a reserved viewing area in the front section of the Great Lawn on the East side. No chairs are provided but each person with a disability is permitted to bring his/her own chair or wheel chair. Of course, people with disabilities holding tickets are welcome on the Great Lawn for the concert, as is anyone else with a concert ticket.
