Bad Bunny brings the World's Hottest Tour to Chase Field in Phoenix on Wednesday, Sept. 28.

Here's everything you should know if you plan to see the world's most-streamed artist of the past two years at Chase Field — from parking information to details on the venue's clear bag policy and what to expect from the concert itself.

How early should I arrive at Chase Field?

Doors open at 5 p.m. Live Nation, the concert's promoter, is encouraging fans to show up as early as possible to avoid potential delays at the gates as you get closer to show time. Deorro takes the stage at 7 p.m., followed by Bad Bunny.

The estimated attendance for this sold-out show is approximately 43,000 attendees.

Downtown Phoenix Inc says it's expecting concert traffic to start around 3 p.m. with a critical mass of concertgoers expected from an hour to two-and-a-half hours before show time.

Heavy vehicular and pedestrian traffic is also expected when the concert ends at around 11 p.m.

How to take the light rail to the Bad Bunny concert

Valley Metro trains run every 15-20 minutes with a drop off steps from Chase Field at the Third Street/Washington or Third Street/Jefferson stations.

You can buy your fare at any light rail station using cash, credit or debit card — or purchase a pass in advance to avoid lines at the vending machines.

What if I can't or don't want to go through a metal detector?

Fans who do not prefer to go through the metal detector have the option of a pat-down search.

If a medical implant sets off the metal detector, the person will be subject to a follow-up screening that may include a hand wand or light pat-down search.

Gates A, C, E, J and K and the Bridge Entrance will have lanes available for those who cannot go through a metal detector because of a mobility device.

Guests using these lanes will be subject to a light pat-down or hand wand, as well as inspection of the mobility device.

I'm driving to the Bad Bunny concert. What's the best route to take?

Chase Field is at 401 E. Jefferson St., Phoenix. It is bounded by Seventh Street to the east, Fourth Street to the west, Jefferson Street to the north, and the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks to the south.

There are multiple construction projects taking place on both the freeways and surface streets to and from Chase Field, so plan extra time to get there if you are arriving by car.

For example, Fourth Street will be closed by noon.

The Weeknd's Phoenix concert was an epic, post-apocalyptic hellscape. Why that was awesome

If you're coming from the Southeast Valley

Take Interstate 10 west, then use the right three lanes to I-17 at the split. Exit to the right on Seventh Street, then turn left at the light on Lincoln Street. Or, continue north on Seventh Street to Jefferson Street, then turn right to access parking facilities east of Seventh Street.

A word to the wise: Left turns from Seventh Street westbound onto Washington Street are prohibited.

To avoid congestion, continue on I-17 to the Seventh Avenue exit, go right on Seventh Avenue and then right at Lincoln or Jefferson streets.

If you're coming from Scottsdale or east Mesa

Take Loop 202 west to I-10 and exit via the Fifth Avenue HOV lane or Seventh Avenue. Turn left on Fillmore, Van Buren (accessible from Fifth Avenue only) or Jefferson streets.

Use I-17 to the Jefferson Street exit, then turn left and continue eastbound.

If you're coming from the Northeast Valley

Take State Route 51 (Piestewa Freeway) to I-10 east, exit at Washington Street and turn right. Or take I-10 west to the Seventh Street exit and turn left.

To avoid congestion, continue on I-10 to Seventh Avenue or the Fifth Avenue HOV exit. Turn left on Fillmore, Van Buren (accessible from Fifth Avenue only) or Jefferson streets.

If you're coming from North Central Phoenix

Due to heavy traffic, Seventh Street is the least-preferred option.
