TRANSPORTATION
PARKING
Fan Parking - Football games are declared a “major event” and, therefore, residential parking bans go into effect for every home game. Parking is restricted on all signed streets from the start of the game and for the next two hours. Parking passes are issued to existing pass holders on an annual basis for those parking lots located at the stadium and in the LRT lot. Please note: We currently do not have any Reserved Parking passes available.
Accessible parking - There are 100 parking spaces available for disabled fans located in Lots B and C. These passes are issued through our Administration Office on an annual basis to existing pass holders. We currently do not have any additional parking spaces. Proof of a valid City of Edmonton disabled pass is required at time of renewal.
Drop-Off Areas – The drop-off area for wheelchair/disabled fans is at Gate 6 located on the northwest side of the stadium. For those patrons accessing the stadium from the northeast side, an elevator is located mid-way through the Gate 10 entrance and will take you to the concourse level.
Residential Parking Ban
Parking is restricted around Commonwealth Stadium and the LRT Station. Signs are posted at these locations. Any vehicle not displaying a valid residential parking permit will be tagged and towed at the owner's expense.
