If you are lucky enough to have tickets, here are a few tips to make it a great night!

~ Get a hotel in DeKalb Co. – it’ll make getting to and from the Egyptian Theatre that much easier!

~ DeKalb Co. has great dining options, including many within walking distance of the Theatre. Come early, beat the traffic and have a great dinner!

~ If you’re just driving in for the concert, ARRIVE EARLY! The show is sold-out, there is going to be traffic getting into Downtown DeKalb. There is also no opener. Home Free will take the stage at 8pm.

~ How to avoid some of the traffic if you’re driving in on I-88:

• Use the Peace Road exit, go north on Peace Road and turn west on IL-38/Lincoln Hwy. This will take you to downtown DeKalb.
