Adam Lambert concert parking Sunday will be tight, Sands Bethlehem Event Center warns
With singer Adam Lambert’s concert at Sands Bethlehem Event Center still four days away, the venue is warning patrons that parking is going to be “extremely limited” for the show because of a truck giveaway at the casino at the same time.
The casino is giving away a 2016 Ford F-150 truck at 7 p.m. Sunday – the same time Lambert’s concert is scheduled to start at the adjacent event center, with all of its 2,700 seats sold.
The casino crowd usually swells for its auto giveaways, filling up even its multi-level garage and the event center’s large surface lot.
“If you are planning to attend our sold-out Adam Lambert show on Sunday, please be advised that parking will be extremely limited due to an additional event at the Sands Casino,” the event center tweeted Wednesday. “Please plan accordingly!’
People at the casino get chances to win the truck by having played slots between 6 a.m. Feb. 1 through 6:45 p.m. Feb. 28. Entries are increased tenfold Friday through Sunday.
There also will be a $5,000 “Second-chance drawing” at 9 p.m. That means, although the event center doesn’t say it, there may be some traffic considerations when leaving the concert, as well.
Lambert’s show functionally sold out less than a week after it went on sale Jan. 15.
As of today, the tour must have released some of the seats it was holding. The show at www.ticketmaster.com showed 22 seats available at $65 each. The event center also was advertising luxury box seats for sale at 610-297-7414.
Lambert sold out a 2010 headline show at Musikfest’s then-main stage Riverplace, with a crowd of 6,500. He has not performed in the Lehigh Valley since. Sands Bethlehem Event Center holds 2,700.
Lambert in 2015 he outpaced Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson as the show’s top earner for the year. Forbes said Lambert had a career-high earning year, pulling in $10 million “buoyed by cash accumulated while playing arena shows as the frontman of legendary glam rock band Queen.”
Lambert was runner-up on the eighth season of “American Idol” in 2009, finishing second to Kris Allen. He went on to have a gold, No. 3 hit album with his debut “For Your Entertainment” that year – more than doubling sales of Allen’s self-titled debut.
