Michael Jackson Tribute in Arlington, TX

The arena is at 600 S. Center St., on the east side of the University of Texas at Arlington campus. From the downtown Arlington area near City Hall, the trip is under a mile and generally only a few minutes by car. From the Entertainment District near the major stadiums, the venue is roughly three miles away and commonly around a ten-minute drive when local traffic is moving.

Local drivers can approach on Center Street. Those coming from north Arlington can use I-30, exit Center Street and travel south about two miles. From south Arlington, the official I-20 route exits at Cooper Street, continues north to UTA Boulevard, turns right and then turns right again onto South Center Street.

Arlington residents can target a 5:55-6:10 PM arrival, leaving time to park before doors open at 6:30 PM. The performance is scheduled for 7:30-10:30 PM. Although the mileage is small, traffic around UTA, downtown streets and other local activities can affect the final approach, so avoid treating the door time as the parking time.

Fans already in downtown Arlington may find that a rideshare or walk is more convenient than moving a car, depending on their exact location and mobility needs. Guests arriving from north or south Arlington should enter the full street address in navigation rather than relying on a generic College Park District destination.

Three parking garages are adjacent to College Park Center, immediately north of the building. The venue states that parking rates vary by event. Check the official parking information and follow signs on arrival; do not assume a garage is free or reuse a rate from a basketball game or another concert.

Because local guests have the shortest return, they can let the first wave of garage traffic clear after 10:30 PM if desired. People using rideshare should choose a clear pickup point away from moving traffic and confirm it in the app. Those walking back downtown should remain on lit public routes and follow any event-day pedestrian direction.

Arlington does not have a rail stop at College Park Center. The city operates app-based transportation programs, including Arlington Express, and service areas or operating hours can change. Check the City of Arlington’s current transportation information and book through the authorized app or phone channel if the service covers both your origin and the needed time.

The return matters as much as the arrival because the show is scheduled to end at 10:30 PM. Confirm that a city service is available after the performance; otherwise arrange rideshare, a designated driver or a pickup. TRE serves the wider region but its nearest stations still require a separate road connection into Arlington.
