Match Day Guide

Game day at SoFi Stadium

Everything fans actually stress-Google before their trip to Los Angeles.

Gates open

2 hours before kickoff

Recommended arrival

90 minutes before kickoff — LA traffic is unforgiving on match days

Payments

Cashless venue — cards & tap-to-pay only

Bag policy

Clear plastic bags only, max 30 × 15 × 30 cm (12 × 6 × 12 in). Small clutch (no larger than a hand) also allowed.

Parking

$60–100 on-site, must pre-book via SoFi Stadium app — drive-up parking sells out

Best transit

LA Metro K Line to Downtown Inglewood, then 15 min walk or shuttle. Rideshare drop-off at designated lots only — expect 40+ min surge after match.

Insider notes

  • SoFi has a translucent roof — daytime games can be very bright
  • Stadium is in Inglewood, not central LA — plan 45+ min from downtown
  • Mandatory cashless across all concessions
Prohibited items (FIFA standard)
  • Outside food and drinks
  • Glass and metal containers
  • Weapons (incl. pocket knives) and fireworks
  • Professional cameras (lens >75mm) and tripods
  • Drones
  • Banners larger than 2 × 1 m or any with political messaging
  • Selfie sticks
  • Laser pointers
Practice Stadium
Dignity Health Sports Park (Carson)
Home of the LA Galaxy, this 27,000-seat soccer-specific stadium in Carson is a prime team training base. 15 minutes from SoFi Stadium.
Getting There

Fly into LAX or Burbank. LA Metro C Line connects to SoFi Stadium area. Rideshare is popular but expect traffic. Stadium is in Inglewood, near the Forum.

Local Tips

  • Rent a car or use rideshare — LA is spread out and public transit is limited
  • Visit the beach cities (Santa Monica, Venice) for the SoCal vibe
  • Eat tacos from street vendors in East LA for the best Mexican food outside Mexico
  • Plan for warm, dry weather in June/July — sunscreen is essential
