Know Before You Go
Bag Policy
American Airlines Center allows bags no larger than 14"×14"×6", plus wristlets, clutches, or wallets up to 4.5"×6.5" at all entrances. Clear bags are encouraged (not required) and speed up entry. No backpacks. Every guest passes a metal detector and visual inspection — confirm at americanairlinescenter.com.
Cashless Venue
American Airlines Center is a cashless building. Bring a major credit card or mobile pay for concessions, merch, and parking; cash-to-card kiosks are available on-site if you only have cash.
Parking Fills Fast
On-site garages and lots (Lexus Garage, lettered lots, valet) open about two hours before the show at roughly $10–$30, and premium lots sell out for big events. Hiring QTS eliminates parking entirely and lets your driver stage nearby.
All Ages & Family
This is generally an all-ages show; check americanairlinescenter.com for any age or lap-child rules, and keep younger fans close in the Victory Park crowds.
Tickets
Ticket prices vary, especially on the resale market, and fraudulent listings are common. Buy only through official channels — Ticketmaster and Live Nation. QTS does not sell event tickets; we handle your ride to and from the arena.
Arrive Early for Security
Metal detectors and bag checks at every entrance, plus a full house arriving at once. Arrive early — lines build fast. Hiring QTS means you arrive on a schedule, not circling Victory Park for a space.
Why Book QTS for the sombr Concert
American Airlines Center sits in Victory Park, wedged between I-35E (Stemmons Freeway), the Dallas North Tollway, and Woodall Rodgers — a tight, high-traffic pocket just north of downtown Dallas. On event nights, garages fill early and the exit crawls. Rideshare prices surge 3–5x the moment thousands of guests request a pickup at once.
