A bit of a throwback, Merriweather is a treat, especially when the weather is ideal. Under the roof is best. Plenty of food and drink vendors. It feels like a park turned into concert venue .

Kristine Untalan

Ticket booth on the South entrance opens at 5p, so don't feel like you have to trek on the side of the (dangerous) gravel road to get to the North box office . Also, pregaming while in line is a MUST!

Catia DaSilva

Great for graduation, but my tip goes to the girls! Don't wear heels. It's a long walk and hills and downhills! :(

Morgan Chase

Without a doubt, "The Pit" is the best place to enjoy a show here. It's never too crowded and the acoustics are EPIC. Ticket price is fairly comparable as well .

Danielle???? Ann

Bring in 5$ footling subs to avoid the $15 chicken tenders . You can bring water too of any size, so I suggest bringing a gallon. Especially in 85 degree weather in October! It's great !

Amanda Hoffman

Parking lot B, which is at the Mall , puts you by the back entrance. I’ve never waited in a line there and it is so much closer to the lawn and seats than the main entrance.

Kendy Chibi

Best opened live concert in MD. Make sure you eat or plan in advance before because food can be expensive . Allowed water, one bottle.

Dion Barela

Yay for Florence and the Machine! Such a beautiful venue with great ambiance. I'm coming back! #promise

Helene Horowitz

Be sure to sign up for the 9:30 Club Friends with Benefits program! And eat at Cody’s BBQ if it’s open.

Adam W

Best outdoor venue I've been to...absolutely love this place. The atmosphere here can't be beat

Leslie Kon

Lawn seating sucks, pay the extra $ for actual seats, unless u prefer ppl trampling all over ur shit & ass cracks in ur face while sitting down by the late comers. Move your MF'n ass out of my way!

Ayanna

Excellent venue for live music and good times with friends and family!

Alex Robertson

Amazing summer venue

Beth Lacey Gill

If you're seated in the pavilion , keep your ticket super handy. They'll ask you for it a bunch when you're getting seated.

Josh Higgins

Great outdoor concert venue . Buy seats and you get a great view !

Charlie Phelan

Great venue to hear live music !

Fordcast Tour

This is the best outdoor concert space in Maryland! Make sure you arrive early to snag a good seat on the lawn!

Jenna

I like the seats in the pavilion . I m not fond of the lawn. I n my experience I can't see anything from there.

Robert Durham

I haven't been here in two years but the forest stage is awesome....shaded viewing area...bonus!

Sylvie Williams

Don't spend money on the pavilion seats. The lawn is sloped and you can get great seats at the top.

Shaneia Stewart

If you get a chance.. MUST ATTEND the Jazz Fest.. Charlie Wilson was AMAZING.. and KC & The sunshine band too!

Fordcast Tour

The @FordcastTour will be at @MerriweatherPP on 8/12 in full-force showing off the new Focus & giving you the chance to win some killer prizes (including tix to the show!). Make sure to stop by!

Lawn seats are fun - great outdoor venue!

Lawn seats are fab because you vet the chance to move around and see all the beautiful people!!

Don’t forget to get a free parking pass when ordering tix to get an assigned lot. Do NOT pay for parking ! These are scammers.

Lawn Seats are totally where it's at if you want a chill relaxing space. Don't forget your water, blankets and food!

???? Chrissy ????

This is probably one of my favorite venues

Carrie L.

Good seats under the pavilion , parking sucks.

Bob Vanasse

If this place weren't in the middle of nowhere it would be awesome. If they moved it to Rock Creek Park it would be perfect.

Ararara

Check if your show allows you to bring lawn chairs before arriving to the venue

Mark Leonard

Great place to tailgate! Great place to see a show!

Angie Harmon

Buy a shot. The teenagers at the bars don't know how much that is so they pour 3-4 at a time.

The Virgin Mobile House

For our Swarm Special, the "Special Guest" is someone who’s already playing the Festival ;) Check in from anywhere inside Merriweather, but @ FreeFest !

Aaron Watford

Don't miss this event ever and always get your tickets online.

William Smink

When the shows over stick arround or just take your time walking to your car cause its gonna take at least 20-30 min to get out of the parking lot

Mykl Wu

It's all about the pregame. Also they're not that strict about bottles of water coming in. It ain't the TSA.

Barbie Cooley

Vans Warped Tour is a must every summer!!!

Maggie MacG

No bad seats on the lawn. Fun venue.

Tonyala Scott-wyndham

the outdoor seating needs to be updated. and many of the greenery cut down

Alex Caico

Great venue!

Theo Bell

Great concert venue ! Queen/Adam Lambert this evening.
