Hundreds of noise complaints from MetLife Stadium concert

SECAUCUS – Because of excessive noise levels from the Electric Daisy Carnival held at MetLife Stadium over this past Memorial Day Weekend, the town of Secaucus has issued summonses for 31 complaints of noise in excess of allowable limits to MetLife Stadium, Insomniac, Inc. (the event promoter), and The New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority. Additionally, Mayor Michael Gonnelli sent a letter to Brad Mayne, President of MetLife Stadium, demanding a plan to eliminate disturbances to the residents of Secaucus in the future.
MetLife Stadium’s website indicates that there is another concert scheduled for this weekend.
Mayor Gonnelli stated, “It wasn’t like there was noise coming from MetLife for a few minutes. This ruckus went on for hours and I literally received more than 100 complaints from residents. We understand that MetLife Stadium is next door but that doesn’t mean it can spew noise indiscriminately that affects our neighborhoods.”
