State Farm Stadium: Glendale's Retractable Marvel

Getting There

• Public Transport

  While the light rail doesn't directly reach State Farm Stadium, you can take the Valley Metro Rail to the Desert Sky Transit Center at 79th Avenue and McDowell Road. From there, use the connecting bus services like Route 70 (Glendale Ave) or Route 17 (McDowell Rd). On game days, shuttle services often run directly from the transit center to the stadium. A single bus fare is typically $2.

• Rideshare

  Utilize rideshare services like Uber or Lyft for a convenient way to reach State Farm Stadium. The designated drop-off and pick-up zone is located at the Black Lot, south of the stadium across Bethany Home Road/Cardinals Way. After events, consider walking towards Westgate Entertainment District or the Tanger Outlets parking lot to potentially reduce wait times due to increased demand. A short trip from Westgate to the stadium typically costs around $10-$15, but prices may surge during peak times.

• Driving

  State Farm Stadium is located off the Arizona Loop 101 Freeway, between Cardinals Way and Glendale Avenue. For general parking (blue lots), access is available via Glendale Avenue or Cardinals Way. Preferred parking (red lot) can be accessed by entering at Maryland Avenue and 95th Avenue. From the south, exit Loop 101 at Cardinals Way; from the north, exit at Glendale Avenue, turning west to 99th Avenue, and east onto Maryland Avenue. General parking can range from $15-$40 depending on the event. Note that the stadium is cashless, and only credit cards are accepted for parking payments.
