Parking is the part of your Arlington visit that deserves a plan. Both Globe Life Field and AT&T Stadium are surrounded by numbered lots, and prices vary based on proximity, event type and when you buy. Getting it right saves you money, stress and time.
Here is everything you need to know about parking for events in the Arlington Entertainment District.
All Globe Life Field parking is cashless. You must pay with a credit card or through the MLB Ballpark app. Cash is not accepted at the lot entry.
Prices vary by lot and distance from the stadium:
Lots M and N are the most affordable at $25. They require a 10 to 15-minute walk to the stadium.
Lots D and L are mid-tier options at $30 to $35, offering a balance between price and proximity.
Lots B, V and Q are the closest to the gates and cost $40 to $55. Lot B is located near Texas Live! and is one of the most convenient options for visitors who plan to eat or drink before the game.
Opening Day and postseason pricing is subject to change and typically runs higher.
Lot D handles buses (approximately $60) and RVs (approximately $100) on game days. Both require credit card payment. RVs and buses may park when lots open and must depart by 9:00 a.m. the next day, schedule permitting.
Lexus drivers can receive complimentary parking in the dedicated Lexus Lot W on the east side of Globe Life Field. A valid 2026 window decal from a DFW Lexus dealer is required. Once the lot reaches capacity, drivers must use a paid lot.
Parking lots open 2.5 hours before first pitch for night games and two hours before game time for afternoon games.
AT&T Stadium has more than 12,000 parking spaces across 15 numbered lots. Parking for Cowboys games and major events is significantly more expensive than Rangers game day parking.
Standard lots (Lots 10 through 15) typically range from $40 to $75 for major events.
Premium lots (Blue and Silver) often cost $100 to $150 or more. For high-demand events, resale parking passes can reach $200.
On non-event days, lots used for stadium tours are often free. Lot 6 and Lot 7 are commonly available for daily tour parking but charge event rates during games and concerts.
Third-party lots and garages within a one-mile radius offer spaces starting as low as $7 to $15 when booked in advance. Apps like SpotHero and ParkWhiz list available options and let you reserve a spot ahead of time.
Pre-purchasing parking is the single best thing you can do to simplify your game day. Buying through the MLB Ballpark app guarantees your spot and avoids the line at the entry kiosk. On high-demand days, lots fill up and gate prices can be higher than the advance rate.
If you want to skip parking altogether, rideshare is a solid option.
Rideshare pickup and drop-off for Globe Life Field is located on Chapmans Cutoff, south of the corner of Randol Mill Road and Stadium Drive. Avoid requesting rides on Randol Mill Road after games; the designated zone on Chapmans Cutoff is faster and less congested.
The official rideshare staging area for AT&T Stadium is in Lot 15. For a faster exit after events, some visitors use pickup zones along North Collins Street, away from the heaviest post-event traffic.
If you are staying at a participating hotel in the Entertainment District, the Arlington Trolley provides complimentary shuttle service to the stadiums on event days. Service typically begins 2.5 hours before game time and continues for about 30 minutes after the event.
Tailgating is permitted in most Rangers parking lots, but not in Lots A, B and T.
All tailgating setup (tents, grills, chairs) must stay in the grassy areas surrounding the lots. Parking spaces are for vehicles only. Tailgating is allowed from the time lots open until the end of the second inning, and post-game tailgating runs up to one hour after the final out.
Charcoal and gas cooking are permitted. Deep fryers, open fires and amplified sound systems are prohibited.
Regular season parking ranges from $25 (Lots M and N) to $55 (Lot B and Lot V). All parking is cashless and can be purchased in advance through the MLB Ballpark app.
