San Francisco, CA, Candlestick Park, Aug. 14, 2014 - ARCHIVE
-
I've been wanted to visit SF again so this seems too good to miss! Anyone know of a good hotel close to the venue for a reasonable price? So do fan club tickets go on pre-sale on Monday? I'm traveling down south this weekend so this might be tricky.

Does anyone know what the closest hotel to Candlestick Park might be? Thank You.

It is not located in a decent part of the city, no nearby restaurants. The parking will be atrocious , so hopefully there will be special transportation set up for the event. I can't wait!!

Now comes the hardest and scariest part. Trying to get tickets!
Desperate for decent tickets for this. My sister-in-law to be loves the Stick, and I want the 4 of us to be able to sit together not in the nose bleeds. Fingers crossed!

I think Candlestick is close to downtown so I'm thinking staying in downtown close to water and just bus/cab to this...
-
I will be flying there, going to the concert, and flying back. I have to do this economically, which means I'd be flying into Oakland. Any Californians know how long would it take to cab from Oakland to Candlestick?

It's about a 30min drive more or less - cabbing it is probably your best bet (or UBER etc.) So question: is there no Macca.com pre-sale for this show, AmEx only?

Even with the chilly August Candlestick nighttime weather, this will be a magical night. I would think media coverage that night for the show will be pretty heavy, too. I would think there'll be some kind of special MUNI bus transportation from downtown San Francisco to the show (a Magical Mystery Tour?), and maybe Sam Trans if you're staying near the San Francisco Airport (SFO).

Hi Harley, How are you? I'll be going to this concert. I passed on the Outside Lands concert last year, but this Candlestick McCartney show is one I'm not going to miss. Hope to meet you and other boardies in person at the concert. Obviously, it's going to be a very special night. I'm glad I'll finally get to hear a few of the NEW songs performed live too. That album is sooo good. Marshall

A few thoughts from a San Franciscan. FWIW, I have no desire at all to see a concert in Candlestick after seeing Paul a few years ago in the vastly superior AT&T Park. 1: Candlestick is a cold, drafty hellhole. The Giants were basically tricked into picking the site by clever real estate guys who showed the site to them in the morning, before the wind kicks up. 2: Transportation and parking are difficult and, as noted, nearby amenities are scarce. For those coming to town, the nearest/most accessible hotels are probably ones near San Francisco International Airport. Getting there from hotels near downtown and major tourist areas will not be fun. 3: Someone asked about a cab ride from Oakland Airport to Candlestick. In light traffic it could be an hour or even a couple minutes less. But depending on when your flight arrives, you could catch rush hour traffic and that time could more than double easily. Even a minor accident on the Bay Bridge can screw things up spectacularly. You might take BART into SF and catch a cab for the last few miles. In any case, allow a large margin of error! I gotta say, much as I love Paul, this is one venue where I have zero desire to see him. There's a reason they're tearing the thing down.
