The sold-out Mumford & Sons concert at Ogren Park at Allegiance Field the evening of Aug. 11 will draw thousands of fans to Missoula’s civic stadium. The City of Missoula and concert promoter Logjam Presents have worked together to plan for public safety and transportation during the concert weekend.
Here’s the schedule of what’s open and closed when:
- The Ogren Park/Silver Park parking lots will be closed Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 10 and 11, to accommodate the bands’ large vehicles.
- The Silver Park boat ramp will not be accessible to other vehicles from 11pm Friday until 7am Monday, so the ramp will not be usable by floaters needing to pick up rafts.
- Wyoming Street from California Street to Orange Street and Hickory Street from 1st Street to Cregg Lane will be closed on Sunday, Aug. 11 to allow foot traffic to and from the concert.
- McCormick Park and Currents Aquatics Center will be open Aug. 11 vehicle access to McCormick Park will be via Orange Street and Cregg Lane only, and vehicles headed to these destinations will allowed to pass.
- Silver Park users may access the park on foot or by bicycle via the Riverfront Trail.
- The Riverfront Trail adjacent to Ogren Park and Silver Park will be open.
Log jam Presents contracted with the City of Missoula last year to promote concerts at Ogren Park at Allegiance Field. Each concert will be unique in its required traffic configurations and accommodations for performers, and City and Logjam staff members will work together concert by concert to ensure public enjoyment, financial support of the civic stadium and the least possible impact on the non-concert-going public.
Concert goers are encouraged to visit the Mumford & Sons event page at logjampresents.com to learn more about the entry process, prohibited items and best practices prior to their arrival at the event. In addition, Logjam Presents will have an information desk open from 11am-5p0m at the Top Hat in downtown Missoula on Sunday, Aug. 11.
