GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium Guide

NFL · Kansas City · 76,416 capacity

Last updated: 5/16/2026

GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium is one of the loudest venues in professional sports, a 76,000-seat open-air stadium in the Truman Sports Complex that Chiefs fans have turned into a game-day pilgrimage site. There's no rail to the stadium — the free RideKC 47-Broadway bus is the transit option — but the Ford Tailgate District and surrounding lots create a pre-game atmosphere that starts five hours before kickoff. Advance parking purchase is required (no cash at toll booths), and staying near the Country Club Plaza or downtown puts you within a 15-minute drive.
