But how will you get there? This all-day event takes place at UBS Arena—the home of the New York Islanders of the National Hockey League—in Elmont, New York. This year’s dates have yet to be announced. The location is adjacent to New York City limits, just west of Queens. Here’s how to snag a great deal on a rental for your day at Summer Jam.
How to Get a Cheap Car Rental for Summer Jam
Book early. The best time to book your rental car is soon as you know you’re heading to Summer Jam, since some rental agencies may run out of vehicles. Unlike airline tickets, rental car reservations can usually be canceled without a penalty. The best strategy is to ask AutoSlash for a quote early on, and then keep checking to see if prices go down.
Track your reservation. It’s a huge time suck to constantly monitor for lower rates but, luckily, AutoSlash can to do this for you at no extra cost. After you book your car, ask AutoSlash to track your reservation. We’ll let you know if there’s a price drop so you can rebook at the lower rate.
Make the most of a weekend rate. Since Summer Jam takes place on a Sunday, you may be able to take advantage of a good one-day rate or attractive weekend promo rates but you should always read the fine print. Follow these tips to ensure you understand how to get the most bang for your buck on a promo rate.

Check both on and off airport. Are you flying into LaGuardia or JFK? Renting at a neighborhood location can often save money, but off-airport rates aren’t always cheaper, so it pays to check both.
