There is also a shuttle that goes to and from the Aberdeen/Matawan train station which starts once doors open for your show. Shuttles will continue running back and forth until 30 minutes after the show ends. It’s a 10-minute drive one way, so account for the shuttle taking approximately 20 minutes to arrive and return from the station.

Fan Reviews
Many lots charge $40-$50 to park. If your not afraid of parking in the ghetto a block away for free do that and meet your friends in the lot to tailgate. This place always has good sound and a great view from the lawn. They don’t allow chairs you have to “rent” for $10. Only allow clear plastic bags and a small size at that. Don’t try and bring a backpack or even big purse cause you’ll be walking back to your car or shown to an expensive locker rental outside the venue. Bathrooms can be a walk so choose your song wisely. Be careful leaving at night if you did park in the ghetto and go straight back to the highway.
