Florence + the Machine moves concert at Xfinity Mobile Arena to Atlantic City over conflict with Flyers playoff game<\/a><\/p>\nUpgraded spaces are available in the north and south parking lots and can be purchased on Ticketmaster. There is also addition parking available for\u00a0Mann Members.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In an email to ticket holders, the Mann said the change will help the venue maintain its seasonal parking area and support “improvements to the overall patron experience.” This month, the venue plans to make updates to its lighting and signage in the parking lots. Additional upgrades are planned for the future, but it did not offer specifics on what those were or a timeline.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For people who have already purchased tickets\u00a0to shows this season, the Mann said it sent a one-time code to redeem a free parking pass as a thank you for purchasing tickets early.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A representative from the Mann said the change is a return to pre-COVID-19 policy, when the venue used to charge the same amount to park at shows. The free parking was meant as a thank you for patrons who returned to live shows in 2021, and the venue was able to extend it through 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, parking will be free at two events this season, the\u00a0Voices of Hope show on June 23 and the\u00a0Milestone Mashup event on Aug. 22.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In October, health care company\u00a0Highmark Blue Shield and the Mann Center announced a 12-year partnership, which included updates ahead of the 2026 season.\u00a0The venue said the upgrades include a 40,000-square-foot plaza with a main entry canopy, welcome center, digital installations and wayfinding, a new ticket office and restrooms, and increased ADA accessibility. The changes also include a new outdoor bar and seating area.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Several SEPTA routes pass through Fairmount Park as an additional travel option. It also operates a\u00a0Highmark Mann Loop bus<\/a>, which starts at\u00a0Locust Street and Rittenhouse Square and makes four additional stops in Center City before dropping passengers at the venue.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After five years of free parking for concertgoers, the Mann Center for Performing Arts will reinstate its fee…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":171169,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[20157,53633,7865,69,71,70],"class_list":["post-171168","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-philadelphia","tag-concerts","tag-mann-center","tag-music","tag-philadelphia","tag-philadelphia-headlines","tag-philadelphia-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171168","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=171168"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171168\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/171169"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=171168"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=171168"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=171168"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
