Protecting Outdoor Concerts Act of 2025
This bill requires the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to create temporary flight restrictions (TFRs) for outdoor concerts or music festivals with at least 30,000 daily attendees. The TFRs would limit both manned aircraft and drones in designated airspace around these events to protect safety on the ground and in the air. The FAA must follow existing rules used for major sporting events and drone regulations when establishing these restrictions. The law mandates this change within one year of enactment, applying specifically to large-scale outdoor music gatherings. It does not affect smaller events or alter general aviation rules outside of these designated temporary zones.
