St. Paul & the Broken Bones at Brooklyn Paramount: Rain Expected — Pack Smart for 49°F
Saturday, April 25 at 6:00 PM ET | Brooklyn Paramount, Brooklyn, NY
Rain is coming to Brooklyn on concert day, and you’ll want to plan accordingly. The National Weather Service is calling for light rain throughout the afternoon and evening, with a 90% chance of precipitation and temperatures hovering around 49°F (dropping to 44°F as the day goes on). East winds at 12-15 mph will add a wind-chill factor, so this won’t be a “light jacket” kind of event.
What to Expect Weather-Wise
Expect steady rain—not a downpour, but consistent enough that you’ll need real rain protection. The forecast calls for 0.5 to 0.75 inches of new rainfall, so puddles will definitely form around the venue. The wind won’t knock you over, but combined with the rain, it’ll make conditions feel colder than 49°F.
What to Wear
Layer up. Start with a long-sleeve shirt or thermal base layer, then add a St. Paul and the Broken Bones hoodie to rep your fandom while staying warm. Over that, you’ll absolutely need a packable rain jacket—it’s lightweight, easy to stuff in a bag, and won’t bulk up your outfit. Avoid cotton; opt for moisture-wicking fabrics that dry quickly.
For your feet, waterproof hiking boots are your best bet. Sneakers will be soaked within minutes, and wet feet make for a miserable concert experience. Waterproof boots keep you dry and give you solid footing on slick pavement.
Grab a St. Paul and the Broken Bones hat to keep rain off your face and help you see the stage better. Plus, it’s perfect merch to remember the night.
Rain Gear & Practical Items
Bring a compact travel umbrella—it’s small enough to fit in a bag but makes a real difference. Just be mindful of other concertgoers when you’re in the crowd.
Pack a clear stadium bag to keep your essentials dry and meet venue requirements. Inside, stash a portable phone charger so your battery doesn’t die before the final encore. Add a fanny pack crossbody for hands-free access to your phone, wallet, and keys without worrying about them getting soaked.
If you want to add some fun to the rainy evening, LED light up bracelets are weather-resistant and create an awesome visual effect in the crowd—rain or shine.
Pro Tips for Concert Day
Arrive early. Rain causes congestion, and people move slower on wet pavement. Aim to get to Brooklyn Paramount by 5:15 PM ET to avoid last-minute stress.
Check the venue’s bag policy. The clear stadium bag helps, but verify what’s allowed beforehand.
Protect your hearing. Even in the rain, concert ear plugs high fidelity let you enjoy St. Paul and the Broken Bones’ incredible sound without damaging your ears. You can still hear every note clearly.
Wear merch that matters. A St. Paul and the Broken Bones t-shirt under your hoodie is a great way to show your support while staying dry and warm.
Final Thoughts
Rain doesn’t cancel the vibe—it just changes how you experience it. With the right gear and preparation, you’ll be comfortable enough to focus on the music. St. Paul and the Broken Bones deliver soul, energy, and unforgettable performances; a little rain won’t dim that.
Get out there, stay dry, and enjoy the show.
