The Need-to-Know Before You Go

COME RAIN AND/OR SHINE
The show will go on whatever the weather. Unless it’s looking extra gnarly. Check our socials for any changes.

GATE TIMES
You can usually roll up 60-90 minutes before showtime, but check your specific event page for exact timings.

PARKING LOTS
Parking lots open 3 hours before the scheduled door time. General admission parking comes with your ticket. If you want easier entry and exit, go for Premier Parking or VIP Parking.

DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP AREAS
Drop off areas are located inside the parking entrance area of the Darien Lake Theme Park. Please enter the parking tolls via the far right lane and notify the parking staff that you are dropping off and they will direct you. Pick up areas will be located at the same place just inside the entrance to the Darien Lake Theme Park parking lots.

WHEN YOU GET HERE
