The lots open up five hours before game time and close two hours after the final whistle. There are over 28k parking spaces to use throughout the MetLife Sports Complex.

Parking Experience from the Community

In 2023, I’ve gotten emails and phone calls about how expensive the parking is at MetLife Stadium. For example, a lady called me in November 2023 stating that the parking at the venue was $75 for the Monday Night Game between the LA Chargers and the New York Jets. 

 

MetLife Stadium Handicap Parking

There are ADA parking spaces available at Lots E, F, and G at the arena for fans to use for parking. Giants fans and Jets fans will need to show a valid parking pass and state-issue license plate to leave their vehicle in these parking lots. Finally, fans can use Lot C , which is adjacent to the Verizon Gate, as a pickup and drop off area.

 

Should I Take Public Transportation?

With the arena being in East Rutherford New Jersey, you have plenty of options via public transportation to get to the venue In the sports complex, fans can use the NJ Transit Rail Service that connects in Secaucus, New Jersey. Trains begin running 3.5 hours before kick-off, but it’s best to get on the train early to the game.

 

Fans out in Connecticut or New York can take the New Haven Metro-North Rail line to get to the stadium. Many bus routes bring fans to and from the game too, so look for lot K for pick ups and drop offs.

 

Finally, NFL fans can use the rideshare programs like Uber or Lyft to get to and from the game. The official pickup and drop off area at the venue is between Lot D and E.

 

Can you Tailgate for a Jets / Giants Game?

Tailgating can take place in the parking lots, but not in the parking deck near the IZOD Center. Jets fans and Giants fans can use grills in front of their vehicles to cook before the game, but no open fires. Fans can’t use deep fryers as well due to the fire hazard they bring. You also can’t fly any drones around the parking lot as well during tailgating festivities.
