This web site can help you figure this out:

Use the Dimensional Field of View Calculator to see that your images will range from 30x45 feet to 45x68 feet. People will be pretty small in the image, but you will likely capture the full stage.

Thanks jc, the venue just says nothing longer than 6 inches, so I know my P900 won't pass.

Just a question from a newbie, I have a D5600 with a 50mm f1.8 and will be in the balcony 1st row, could decent pics be possible? The stage will be about 100-150 ft away.

Are you telling me that is not real?

I am a professional auto technician, have been for 47 years. And yes the cars of today are built so much better than yesteryear that they do not require the major services like they used to. On average, they do not break down very often. When they do it is usually very expensive. What they are trying to sell you is not required by Toyota or any car manufacturer. It is called survival. The technicians for the most part (at least in my case) have years of training, my toolbox consists of about $100,000 worth of tools at today's prices, and I have a family to support on dwindling customer base (hint, they build them better). I work for a dealer and I am of the old school. I recommend what is needed and the advisors tack on the rest. I am one of the higher paid and only get 15% of the labor charged.
Your throttle body does need cleaning from time to time because it does build up gunk on the throttle blade. Your brake fluid is in a closed system, but brake fluid will break down over time and will absorb moisture when the cap is off (sometimes I find a cap not on correctly). Some customers put the wrong type of fluid in the brake system that can do a lot of damage. Your differentials need fluid changing every so often only if you tow quite often (more the just a small trailer with a lawnmower). Your manufacturer has written in your owners manual what is necessary to maintain your vehicle for warranty purpose.
Have you ever known a Professional Photographer do a photoshoot for bare minimum cost? He should because you have a camera, you can do the same thing he does, and it only cost you the gas getting somewhere. Why in most cases do you go to a doctor, just take 2 aspirin and go see him/her in a few weeks, maybe. Why call an electrician, plumber, painter, roofer, the list goes on. Why can't you do it all yourself? HomeDepot can show you how if you don't know how allready.
I am not saying that a dealer in most cases is not a rip, you have a choice. You have a choice to not go to someone that knows your car better than anyone else (with the best parts), or you have the choice to just say NO to those extra items.

One big thing I have heard is just don't update the printer firmware. I heard that if you do that you cannot use aftermarket cartridges anymore. True or not, I don't know.

I like #3 because I can see the wave and get to see him in the action.

For a measly $80-100K you can get the Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye. Does 0-60 in 3.7, top speed 203mph. a lot more affordable.
