What to Expect at Arrowhead Stadium on Match Days

This isn’t your typical KC game day – it will be unlike anything we’ve hosted before. Here are some differences you’ll notice:

  • Limited Stadium Parking: Several of the parking lots will be used by FIFA for hospitality, security, and event operations.
  • Transportation Options: Fans will arrive at the stadium via park-and-ride bus service, rideshare, or designated park-and-walk routes. For many visitors, this will be their first time at the stadium.

Planning Together

We’re still in the planning phase and your input will help shape the experience. Over the next year, this Community Hub will be updated regularly with information about:

  • Community meeting announcements
  • Input surveys
  • Traffic and transportation plans
  • Local business opportunities
  • Resident support resources
