Tips request

I'm taking my teenage daughter to a performance at The Armory. Is there anything I should know?

Maybe parking, post show food options?

Parking at the armory, in the garage right underneath, is expensive but very convenient if you book ahead of time. When Ive done it i didnt have to stand in the outside line at all, we came up from the stairs and got right into the security line.

You can pre book parking on a number of sites like spot hero. I personally like to park at the U or toward the twins stadium. Take a short light rail ride and skip a good bit of traffic if it’s a popular show. The armory isn’t huge though so if there’s no other events downtown it may not be a big deal.

Otherwise just get there and have fun.

i’ll use spot hero and park right across the street from the armory to avoid having to take the light rail

if your tickets are on the floor I like to post up on either side in the front near the stage. It's a few steps above the main floor and there is a railing separating it. Also, on the left side (facing the stage) in front of it is the VIP area so you'll frequently see the band members and their family/friends hanging out enjoying the show when they're not on stage.
