Are firearms prohibited at SteelStacks PNC Plaza in Bethlehem, PA?

[aferr1973]

Does anyone know if firearms will be prohibited at SteelStacks PNC Plaza in Bethlehem, PA? I will be attending a concert in the summer there with my wife and I was planning on CC hoping it will be allowed there. I tried searching online for a prohibited items list but could not find such a list for SteelStacks PNC Plaza in Bethlehem.

Update as of Saturday, August 6th:

Weapons are NOT allowed at Musikfest. I found it posted on the Musikfest website under the Official 'fest rules link on the right side of the page:

http://www.musikfest.org/rules/

I have the same question, going to see The Machine tonight at the Musikfest cafe venue and would like to CC.

Anyone? I am more concerned if I will be subject to patdown or wand rather than violating a policy.

Artsquest, a community, non-profit organization is the owner on the deed to Steels Stacks.

Thanks, I know artsquest owns it, I can't find anything on their website about prohibited items (cameras, etc).

I am more interested to know whether I will be subject to a patdown or wand when I enter. It would suck to not be able to attend after I pay admission.

Hopefully someone can chime in before 4:30 when I head up there. I hate being unarmed if not necessary.

btw I carry a Ruger LCR in an IWB holster, conceals very well unless I get wanded or a patdown.

Just got back, disappointing but spent time with my baby. Smoke machines set off fire alarms and shut power down to the stage. Only got 30 minutes of music



Oh no problem CC to Musikfest Cafe. Likely no problems in other surrounding venues from the looks of it. Fantastic venue, be prepared for added surcharges

Guess they never got around to doing a technical rehearsal. :-)

Thanks for the report. I plan to go regularly and am currently awaiting my LTCF.

Not to sidetrack the thread, but..

I saw them at the "Crow Bar" in State College 13 years ago. ...great show!

Looks like the question answered itself, but to be clear I think you'll have more of an issue with first amendment rights than second at SteelStacks.

Frankly, I say avoid that place like the plague.

I've CC'd to the Frank Banko Alehouse movie theatres a couple of times, I can't find any signs saying "No Firearms", no metal detectors at the doors, and truthfully, they are pretty understaffed inside.
No problems.

I'd be hard pressed to go back frankly. $7 per ticket surcharge at the box office? Which they also applied to my BOGO free ticket offer I had.

Unless it was the first show they ever had, the idea of the smoke machines triggering the alarm system which in turn cut off the power to the stage is ridiculous. They should have a manual override for that part of the complex. I emailed my thoughts to them.
