Lincoln Financial Field Parking

Lincoln Financial Field sits right in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex, sharing huge surface lots with Citizens Bank Park and the Wells Fargo Center. Even with tens of thousands of spots available, dealing with game-day traffic, specific tailgating rules, post-game police routes, and cashless gates takes a little advance planning.

How Much Is Parking at Lincoln Financial Field? Eagles Game Parking Cost and Concert Rates

Parking prices at Lincoln Financial Field depend on the event: standard vehicles pay $50 for Eagles games, $40 for major concerts, and $30 for Temple football and other college matchups. Here is how the official Lincoln Financial Field parking prices break down:

The standard rate covers regular cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks. The venue considers anything taking up more than one standard parking space to be oversized, including RVs, limos, and party buses. No overnight parking is allowed anywhere in the sports complex lots, so all vehicles have to clear out within two hours after the event ends.

Can You Pay Cash for Parking at Lincoln Financial Field?

No, parking booths at Lincoln Financial Field do not take cash. Every toll plaza across the South Philadelphia Sports Complex is completely cashless.

You will need to pay with a credit card, debit card, or phone wallet (like Apple Pay or Google Pay). If you only have physical cash on you, there are cash-to-card reverse ATMs inside the stadium gates (including at Pepsi Plaza), but you still need an electronic payment method ready just to get your car into the lot.

Do You Need a Lincoln Financial Field Parking Pass via Ticketmaster or SpotHero?

You do not need to buy a pass ahead of time. General public parking is readily available in the shared complex lots on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you want a reserved spot, you can purchase a parking pass on Ticketmaster for specific inner stadium lots like Lot J, Lot L, and parts of Lot K. Third-party platforms also give you ways to lock down parking in advance. You can book private spots and driveways near the stadium through Prked, which ranks #1 on Trustpilot across the Parking Garage and Parking Lot categories, or look through SpotHero for nearby commercial lots.

If you are just driving up without a prepaid pass, follow the overhead digital signs to open public lots, including Lots A/B/G/H, C/D, M/N, P, and the perimeter lot by FDR Park.

What Is the Lincoln Financial Field Parking Lot Opening Time?

Stadium parking lots open exactly 4.5 hours before kickoff or the scheduled event start time.

For a 1:00 PM Eagles kickoff, gates open at 8:30 AM. For night games and concerts, try to get there three to four hours early if you want your choice of lots. Traffic starts backing up along Broad Street and Pattison Avenue well before the gates open, so getting there within the first 90 minutes gives you the best shot at a solid tailgate setup.

Which Lincoln Financial Field Tailgating Lots Allow Grills and Setups?

Tailgating is permitted in designated lots on the south side of the complex, but check the map before you park. Tailgating is strictly banned in lots north of Pattison Avenue and west of Darien Street.

                [ NORTH OF PATTISON AVE ]
     (NO TAILGATING: Lots Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Pattison Ave
     (TAILGATING ALLOWED: Lots A-H, J, K, L, M, N, P)
                [ SOUTH OF PATTISON AVE ]

• Approved Lincoln Financial Field Tailgating Lots: Lot K, Lot J, Lot L, Lots M & N, Lot P, and the general lots south of Pattison (Lots A through H) all permit tailgating. Lot K is widely known among fans as the center of the Eagles game-day scene.
• Prohibited Tailgating Zones: Lots Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, and X (north of Pattison Avenue by Citizens Bank Park and near the NovaCare Complex) do not allow tailgating. You can park there, but setting up chairs, grills, or canopies is not permitted.

Are Charcoal Grills and Tents Permitted While Tailgating?

Yes, you can bring portable grills and pop-up canopies into approved tailgating areas, provided everything stays within the lines of your parking space. You must keep an eye on your grill at all times, and hot coals need to go directly into the designated red hot-coal bins scattered throughout the islands, never on the pavement or in regular trash bins. Gear cannot block driving lanes or neighboring stalls. Bonfires and deep fryers are not allowed.

What Is the Best Parking Lot to Get Out Quickly to I-95 and I-76?

Lot P and Lots M/N give you the fastest exit to I-95, while Lots A, B, and C work best for getting toward I-76 (the Schuylkill Expressway) via Broad Street or Packer Avenue.

After big events, the Philadelphia Police Department puts mandatory one-way traffic patterns in place. Officers will direct you onto designated outbound routes, which might keep you from turning where you normally would:

• I-95 Southbound / Northbound: Lots along Darien Street and 11th Street (like Lot P and Lot N) feed directly toward I-95 on-ramps at Broad Street (Exit 17) and Packer Avenue (Exit 19).
• I-76 Westbound / Center City: Lots on the west side near Broad Street (Lots A/B/C/D) get routed north on Broad or over toward the Platt Bridge (Route 291) to connect with I-76 West.

Plan on 45 to 75 minutes just to get out of the complex after a sold-out game or major show. Backing into your space when you arrive makes it much easier to pull out once police start clearing rows.

Can You Park in Private Residential Driveways Near Lincoln Financial Field?

Renting a private driveway or parking pad from a resident just north of the complex is one of the easiest ways to dodge post-game stadium traffic.

• Closest Residential Areas: The Packer Park neighborhood, along with residential blocks on Hartranft, Curtin, Geary, and Pollock streets north of Packer Avenue, sits right across from the stadium grounds. Unlike most rowhouse neighborhoods in Philly, these blocks feature private driveways and dedicated parking pads.
• Walking Distance: The walk from Packer Park takes 10 to 15 minutes (about 0.6 to 0.9 miles) down 10th, 11th, or Broad Street directly to the stadium's North Gate. It is roughly the same distance as walking from outer stadium areas like Lot M, Lot N, or the edge of FDR Park.
• Skipping Post-Game Gridlock: Cars parked in stadium lots like Lot K, Lot J, or Lot P often sit in long police-controlled queues on Pattison Avenue and Darien Street for an hour. Private driveways sit north of all those street closures.
• Quick Highway Access: Leaving from a driveway north of Packer Avenue puts you right near Penrose Avenue and Packer Avenue for I-76 West, or Moyamensing and Oregon avenues to jump onto I-95 without waiting in stadium lines.

Booking a driveway ahead of time on Prked gets you around stadium traffic with a guaranteed spot, simple exit routes, and often a lower price than the standard $50 stadium charge. Rated 5.0/5 on Trustpilot from 750+ reviews, the platform lets you reserve a private space, check host reviews, and review arrival instructions before heading out.

What Address Should I Put in GPS for Lincoln Financial Field Parking?

Set your GPS to 1020 Pattison Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19148 instead of the administrative address at One Lincoln Financial Field Way.

The official mailing address sends navigation apps toward back service gates and secure perimeter roads that are blocked off on game days. Using 1020 Pattison Avenue keeps your map routed along the main roads leading right to the toll plazas and parking entrances.

Where Is the Lincoln Financial Field Uber Pickup and Rideshare Drop-off Location?

Rideshare drop-offs and pickups run through designated perimeter zones, mostly focused around Lot T and the corner of 10th Street & Packer Avenue near Citizens Bank Park.

Because police shut down Pattison Avenue and inner stadium roads to incoming traffic near the end of events, drivers cannot pull up to the gates.

To get an Uber or Lyft without extra hassle after the event:

1. Walk north out of the stadium toward 10th Street and Pattison Avenue.
2. Request your ride once you get near the Lot T zone or cross north of Packer Avenue.
3. For quicker pickups and lower surge pricing, walk 10 to 15 minutes north along Broad Street toward Pollock Street or Oregon Avenue before ordering.

Where Is Lincoln Financial Field ADA Parking Located?

Designated Lincoln Financial Field ADA parking spots sit in the front rows of every official lot, closest to the stadium gates and paved walkways.

These accessible spaces are first-come, first-served for vehicles displaying a valid state-issued placard or disability license plate. You will still need to pay the standard event parking fee at the entrance.

The stadium's primary ADA entryway is the North Gate, which has dedicated lanes and ramps. Drop-off zones are located along the perimeter close to the North Gate and VIP entrance lanes.

Can I Park at Live! Casino or Citizens Bank Park for an Event at the Linc?

Yes. Both Citizens Bank Park and Live! Casino Philadelphia sit right next to the stadium and are an easy walk over.

• Citizens Bank Park Lots: Whenever the Phillies are out of town or do not have a conflicting game, their lots (Lots S, T, U, V, W, and X) take Lincoln Financial Field overflow at the standard rate of $40 to $50. Tailgating is not allowed in these lots.
• Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia: Located at 900 Packer Avenue (about a 5-to-8-minute walk to the North Gate), the Live! Casino garage provides covered parking. Rates vary during major stadium events, though certain casino rewards tiers get free or discounted parking with validated play.

Public Transit Alternative: The SEPTA Broad Street Line

Taking the train is the simplest way to skip South Philly parking costs and traffic after the game.

The SEPTA Broad Street Line subway runs straight from Center City down to NRG Station (formerly Pattison Station) at Broad Street and Pattison Avenue.

• Travel Time: An express train from City Hall Station to NRG Station takes about 11 minutes.
• Walking Distance: NRG Station puts you right on the sports complex grounds, roughly 7 to 10 minutes on foot from Lincoln Financial Field.
• Frequency: SEPTA adds "Sports Express" trains before and right after major events. A one-way fare is $2.00 using SEPTA Key, a credit card, or your phone at the turnstile. You can leave your car in Center City or at a regional rail Park & Ride lot and take the subway the rest of the way in.
