COVID-19 PROTOCOLS

Organizers have asked that those who attend get vaccinated. Legally they cannot ask for proof of vaccination to enter the venue, but they've strongly encouraged the jab in order to follow health guidelines.

"LAN needs every event goer to do their part and most of all, be respectful of others and do the right thing," reads a statement posted on the festival's website. "The current health situation makes for a challenging backdrop for the 11th edition of LAN. Of course, we would love for everyone to attend the festival this year and continue the great year end traditions that make the event special to so many, however, we understand that some will be hesitant. We ask that those who attend do so because they are willing to follow our health guidelines – not because it’s mandated, but because it’s the right thing to do."

LAN organizers are also asking attendees to bring their own mask, but if you forget, they'll have a supply at the gates.

HOW TO GET TO LIGHTS ALL NIGHT 2021

Lights All Night is located at the Dallas Market Hall just outside of downtown Dallas. If you are traveling from downtown Dallas and driving, you can take the Stemmons Freeway via I-35E N. If you are planning on staying at one of the many hotels located nearest to the Dallas Market Hall, most are situated within walking distance of the venue.

Lights All Night Address:

2200 N Stemmons Fwy, Dallas, TX 75207

ARRIVAL

Doors open at 6PM. Upon arrival, there will be a security checkpoint just like any other  major concert of music festival. This year Lights All Night has expanded its entryway to include more lanes and more metal detectors to get you in faster. You can expect to wait approximately 30-45 minutes inline.

Peak times for arrival on both days will be from around 9PM to midnight, so we recommend arriving about 90 minutes prior to your first desired artist's set time to account for traffic and the event's security process. The fest will conclude at 2AM.

PARKING

If you plan on parking your car at the venue, there is a $25 per night parking fee, which is credit card only. If you are planning on taking an Uber, you can use the code LAN21 for $5 off your ride.
