Dear all,
I just bought a ticket for Washington.
I would like to know which is the best way to go from downtown to the FedEx Field ?
by metro ? by train ? by bus ?
Do you think if it will be easy to go back downtown after the show ?
Which area do you recommend me for an hotel ?
Thank you for your help.

I use to live in this area before moving down under. There is a subway/metro station within walking distance however my buddy Chris tells me it has limited hours running and may be closed if the show runs late or if you can't get there promptly.
Not sure of any hotels in the area it is not the best area to be walking around late at night it is in a very bad area for crime.
I'd suggest getting a hotel in the city and not in the area of the concert.
This venue is kind of in the middle of nowhere compared to the stadiums in most cities.
I am sure there will be some charter buses running from downtown DC to the venue that may be the best way to get to and from.
Or, you can do like I am doing and find someone from the area who can give you a lift to and from the stadium.
Having been to concerts here before (1997 they played here when it first opened) getting out of events here is very slooooooooowwwwwwwwwww.

RiffKichards,
The Metro runs until 1am on Fridays. Barring a massive delay from the band, the concert should be over by midnight at the latest, so you should be able to make it back to the Metro by then.
I live right outside of DC in Virginia, and plan on taking the Metro, but it’s probably good to have a backup leaving the concert just in case. Especially if you’re not from the area.
Hope that additional info helps!

staying at the Courtyard, New Carrollton/Landover and wondering if anyone has advise to and from. Obviously LYFT is an option to get there, but after show its always been a mess based on my experiences in other cities. There appears to be trail service but it ends at 1am??
