questions about the Newark stop of the XG World Tour 2026

Hi everyone!

My friend and I are more casual fans of XG and were looking to attend the Newark stop of their world tour this year. However, both of us are completely new to the concertgoing experience, so we have a few questions that I was hoping some more experienced fans might be able to answer.

Firstly: neither of us own any XG merch 😭 I do have a lightstick that I was thinking about bringing, but it’s an SKZ lightstick, so some part of me is hesitant as I don’t want to offend the fandom. Would it be considered acceptable/okay for me to bring it along even though it’s not really affiliated with the group?

The two of us also wanted to know a little more about the venue as we’re unfamiliar with the layout. How long do lines for entry tend to be at Prudential Center, and what does the parking situation look like? I know there’s some options really close to the venue, but would we have to arrive really early to get those spots or are there enough openings that I don’t have to search elsewhere?

Thank you so much in advance! Hope to see you all there in a few months; I’m really looking forward to meeting other ALPHAZ (and see XG live, of course)!
