Skip the 7 train crush, avoid rideshare surge pricing, and leave 60,000 other festival-goers behind — your chauffeur is waiting.
Governors Ball is New York City's premier outdoor music festival, drawing approximately 60,000 fans per day to Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in Queens — the same area as Citi Field and the USTA Tennis Center. The 2026 edition runs Friday through Sunday, approximately June 5-7, featuring dozens of artists across multiple stages.
The post-festival exodus is the real transportation challenge. When 60,000 people leave simultaneously between 10 PM and midnight, the Mets-Willets Point 7 train platform becomes overwhelmed with 30-45 minute waits just to board. Rideshare apps impose surge pricing of 3-5x normal rates, and the pickup staging area becomes chaotic as thousands compete for limited vehicles. There is no general parking at the festival site.
True North VIP solves the exit problem. Your vetted chauffeur is pre-positioned at a designated meeting point away from the main bottleneck — on Northern Blvd or 37th Avenue rather than in the congestion zone. You walk a few minutes past the crowd, text your chauffeur, and you're in a climate-controlled vehicle heading home while everyone else is still standing on the 7 train platform.
Three days of live music in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park — here's what you need to know for transportation planning.
Approximately June 5-7, 2026 (Friday through Sunday). Gates open around noon each day. Headlining performances run until approximately 10 PM.
Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, Queens — near the Citi Field / Mets-Willets Point area. The festival occupies a large outdoor footprint within the park.
Approximately 60,000 attendees per day across multiple stages. Saturday headliner night typically draws the largest crowd.
There is no general parking at the festival site. Attendees rely on the 7 train, rideshare, or professional car service. This is a transportation-dependent event.

Early June outdoor festival — rain is possible and changes the exit dynamic significantly. Car service means you are not standing in a muddy rideshare queue.
