If you are coming from abroad, make sure your travels coincide with some performances you want to see. Check the Shoreline Amphitheatre Web site for a list of events.
If you want to get good seats, buy tickets as soon as you can. Otherwise you might find yourself standing in the grass.
Drive there. You can get driving directions from the Web site. Or check with your hotel to see if they can shuttle you there.
VIP parking costs $20 and gets you close to the venue. Anyone else pays $4, which is added into the ticket price.
If you want to bring your kids and hang out in the Family Zone, you might need to arrive a little early to get a good spot.
