I’ve always wondered this. Whenever I see a touring band, comedian, etc., I’ve always wondered how they are ushered from the venue when the streets are bustling with traffic because everyone else is leaving, and how they’re able to keep their stay location(s) a secret from the general public. Do they have food delivered? Do they stay holed up the entire time?
Thank you in advance for a breakdown of how this works!
Edit: I can’t respond to each reply but just wanted to thank you all for the responses!

It’s pretty straight forward.
Long-distance tavel is private, either on a bus or a private jet.
Getting around town is usually in a sprinter van as it blends in and they usually have several people with them, so they need more space than a regular car.
Getting in and out of venues is easy. They all have private entrances that are far from where fans enter the venue. Also, they will get to the venue really early and leave really late – so there really aren’t many people around at those times.
For accommodations, they will book rooms at a big hotel under fake names or under a company name. All of these hotels work with them to maintain privacy – don’t talk about it with other customers, use private or employee entrances, use service elevators, etc. In some cases, the celeb will rent out a home if they are staying a few days. When Lady Gaga was in Houston to perform at the Super Bowl a few years ago, she rented a big home down the street from my parents. She and all her people were there for about 5 days.
Food depends on how much hassle they want to go through. Ordering in is always super easy. They can go out as well, but that usually entails going to a restaurant with a reservation so they can sit in a private room, private table, or a table in the corner. It also depends on where you are. LA and NY are easier because they are used to dealing with celebrities.
