Riley Green is scheduled to perform live at Rockefeller Plaza on Friday, Sept. 4 as part of the Citi Concert Series on TODAY, with check-in opening at 5:15 a.m. and the concert concluding at 9:30 a.m.
The set will take place on TODAY Plaza at Rockefeller Center, 35 West 48th Street between 5th and 6th avenues, New York, NY 10112. A limited number of Fan Passes are available by advance request; guests who receive those passes will be notified by email approximately one week before the concert date. A valid photo ID is required for each individual in a party.
For fans who don’t secure a Fan Pass, there is still a route into the crowd: you can join the general admission line on the morning of the concert, but admission from that line depends on available space. TODAY notes concerts generally happen rain or shine, so anyone hoping to gain entry without a pass should be prepared to arrive early and for the possibility that capacity will already be met.
The immediate stakes are practical. Check-in at 5:15 a.m. establishes how early the production expects attendees to arrive; the 9:30 a.m. end time frames Green’s appearance within the morning broadcast. Those two times are the concrete boundaries fans need to plan around if they want to be in the plaza rather than watching at home.
Tickets and passes operate on two tracks: the named Fan Passes distributed in advance, and whatever space remains for general admission. Organizers have not published the number of Fan Passes or the expected turnout, so the only guaranteed notice for successful applicants is the email alert roughly one week before the show. That lack of a published cap is the single practical uncertainty fans must absorb when weighing whether to camp out in the general line.
Fans heading to Rockefeller Plaza should carry a valid photo ID for each person in their party and allow time for security processing. The address for planning and transit is 35 West 48th Street between 5th and 6th avenues. Because the concert is part of the Citi Concert Series on TODAY and staged outdoors on TODAY Plaza, weather will not cancel the broadcast; organizers intend to proceed rain or shine.
If you want context on Green’s current run of appearances, he remains listed on the Rock The South bill despite that festival’s postponement to Oct. 1–4, Jason Aldean and Green among the headliners ( Recent coverage of Green includes his acceptance of a Hitmaker Award from Clint Black ( and a new single with a Toby Keith cameo, featured in a summer piece about tour nerves and new music ( Those items track alongside the TODAY appearance but do not change the practical attendance details for Sept. 4.
The clearest move for anyone who wants to attend is simple: request a Fan Pass in advance and watch your email roughly one week before Sept. 4, or plan to arrive early the morning of the show and join the general admission line understanding that entry is not guaranteed. Organizers have not disclosed how many Fan Passes will be issued or how many people will ultimately be admitted from the general line, so treating either outcome as possible is the only reliable plan.
