WILMINGTON ââ An estimated 3,200 cars are expected to steer into downtown next weekend for three consecutive concerts at the City of Wilmingtonâs new $38-million flagship Riverfront Park, a Live Nation-managed amphitheater. Parking has been top-of-mind for many concertgoers, eager to take advantage of seeing live music along downtownâs Riverwalk.
Within the 15-minute walking vicinity of the newly opened venue, there are just over 2,360 places to park vehicles. That doesnât mean 800 late birds wonât be able to find a spot, but it does mean they should wear comfortable shoes because theyâre in for a walk.
