Northwest Stadium

The stadium sits in Prince George's County just east of the D.C. beltway. The location provides easy access from Maryland, Virginia, and D.C., but game-day traffic on I-495 (Capital Beltway) and nearby roads can be brutal.

Driving & Parking

• Driving
  • From Northern Virginia
    Take I-495 North / I-95 North to Exit 17B (MD-202/Landover Road) toward Bladensburg. Alternatively, you can use Exit 13 or Exit 16 depending on your assigned parking permit.
  • From Montgomery County, Howard County, & Western MD
    Take I-495 South / I-95 South to Exit 22B (Baltimore-Washington Parkway). Exit onto MD-202 (Landover Road) and follow it toward the stadium grounds. You can also utilize Exit 16 (Medical Center Drive/Arena Drive).
  • From Washington, D.C
    Take New York Avenue (which becomes US-50 East) into Maryland. Take Exit 3B for MD-202 East (Landover Road) toward Upper Marlboro. Alternatively, take East Capitol Street (which becomes Central Avenue) straight toward the stadium's southern gates.
• Parking
  Most lots require pre-purchasing parking with the exception of the Gray lot on the outer edges of the complex to the northwest, which is cash only. The Redzone lot is the preferred location for tailgating. It opens an hour earlier than the standard lots (4 hours instead of 5) and offers wider parking spaces. Lot H-Burgundy is the only location tailgating is prohibited. For tailgaters needing to stock up, Giant Food has several locations in the area. Wegmans is another good option for groceries and tailgate supplies. For beverages, Woodmore Wine & Spirits , Liquor King, and Liquor City all offer extensive selections depending on the direction you're coming from.

Public Transit

• Metrorail (Blue & Silver Lines)
  Take the Blue Line or Silver Line to the Morgan Boulevard Metro Station. From the station, turn left onto Garrett Morgan Boulevard and follow the dedicated, pedestrian sidewalk one mile to the stadium.
• Commuter Rail (MARC Train)
  Fans traveling from Baltimore or further north can take the MARC Penn Line to the New Carrollton Station. From there, you must transfer to a rideshare or utilize local WMATA bus routes to bridge the final leg to the stadium grounds.

Rideshare

• The dedicated rideshare zone is in the Redzone Lot to the west of the stadium
