Traffic Advisory: BTS Merchandise Sales
Just how big is the K-Pop band BTS? Big enough to shut down an entire road - for their merchandise.
Starting Wednesday, April 22 at 6:00 A.M., Tampa Bay Boulevard will be closed in front of Raymond James Stadium as crews set up a massive BTS merchandise tent. A day later, on Thursday, April 23, thousands of fans are expected to start visiting the site daily to shop ahead of the band’s world tour performances.
Drivers should prepare for delays in the area. Traffic signage will be posted and security will be on site.
BTS will be performing at Raymond James Stadium on:
- Saturday, April 25th @ 8 PM
- Sunday, April 26th @ 8 PM
- Tuesday, April 28th @ 8 PM
Tampa Bay Boulevard will also be closed on Monday, April 27th for additional merchandise sales and will re-open at 6PM on Wednesday, April 29th.
