The Anthem concert travel guide

Plan both directions of your concert trip to The Anthem in Washington. Review the show’s entry arrangements and leave overnight luggage elsewhere.

Arrival option: The Anthem is on the pedestrian waterfront at 901 Wharf Street SW; L’Enfant Plaza and Waterfront Metro stations serve the area. Use the official arrival map to match the last part of your route to the entrance printed on your concert ticket. Leave time for queues and security checks.

• Official arrival information

Check the last useful Metro journey and walk back to a permitted road pickup rather than waiting on the pedestrian promenade.

Plan backwards from your last onward service and allow time to leave the venue. Check the date-specific return journey, including transfers; do not assume a service or shuttle advertised for a sports fixture also runs for your concert.

• Official arrival information

Contact The Anthem before booking if you need a wheelchair space, companion ticket, hearing support or another adjustment. Confirm the route from your station, parking space or drop-off to your ticketed area, including any lifts or stairs.

Use the venue’s current visitor information to ask about accessible entrances and assistance. A nearby station or parking space does not establish that the whole route is step-free.

• Official venue and visitor information

Check Wharf parking or a road-accessible collection point; a car cannot stop at every waterfront entrance.

Agree a permitted collection point before the show, with a backup if traffic restrictions change. Check the parking operator’s closing time, pedestrian exit and event conditions before paying.

• Official arrival information

Review the show’s entry arrangements and leave overnight luggage elsewhere.

Check the current concert page for bag restrictions, prohibited items, age rules, ticket requirements and doors time. Arrange overnight luggage storage separately; do not assume a cloakroom or bag-drop service is available. Ask the venue about medical items in advance.

• Official venue and visitor information

Compare the Wharf for the venue leg with downtown Washington and the final Metro or taxi connection.

Use the Stays tab on your CatchWorm event page to compare accommodation for your dates. Check late check-in, luggage arrangements and cancellation terms directly with the provider before booking.
