SoFi Stadium parking ranges from $40-$100 prepaid on-site (zone dependent); $25-$55 off-site. Prepaid parking passes are available.
How Much Is Parking at SoFi Stadium?
On-site parking at SoFi Stadium ranges from roughly $40 to $100 per vehicle depending on the zone and event type, with pre-purchased passes always cheaper than any day-of rate.
For Rams and Chargers games, official on-site lots are zoned by color and priced accordingly. Reported zone prices for NFL games run from approximately $40 in the Yellow Zone up to $80 in the Hyundai Blue Zone, the most premium close-in option. Mid-range zones like Hyundai Orange and Hyundai Purple typically fall in the $50 range, while the Hyundai Green and Hyundai Pink Zones sit around $60. Concert and non-NFL event parking follows the same structure but typically runs $10-$20 higher per zone.
Off-site lots through the Inglewood Park & Go program and third-party platforms like SpotHero list rates in the $25-$55 range for most events, with shuttle service included. The City of Inglewood’s Best Bargain Market lot on Eucalyptus and Arbor Vitae charges $25 and includes a free shuttle to the stadium.
SoFi Stadium strongly encourages buying a parking pass before arriving. Parking prices increase on-site on the day of the event, and for NFL games, on-site parking is sold out in advance with no day-of purchase available at the gate. Always download your pass to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet before leaving home, cell service near the stadium is congested on game day and screenshots are not accepted.
SoFi Stadium Parking Lots and Maps
SoFi Stadium’s on-site parking is divided into eight color-coded zones spread across the Hollywood Park campus, each tied to specific entry gates.
The eight zones are: Hyundai Green, Hyundai Brown, Hyundai Orange, Yellow, Hyundai Pink, Red, Hyundai Purple, and Hyundai Blue. Every parking pass is zone-specific, a Green Zone pass cannot be used at a Purple Zone gate. Stadium staff will turn away any vehicle attempting to enter the wrong gate, which forces a re-route through heavy game-day traffic. Your parking pass email from ParkWhiz contains a Waze link pre-loaded with directions to your assigned entry point; use it.
For NFL games, parking zones open 4 hours before kickoff, with the exception of the Hyundai Pink Zone, which opens 5 hours before kickoff. For concerts and non-NFL events, lots open 3-4 hours before start time. All lots close approximately one hour after the event ends, confirm your closing time on your parking pass, as it may vary by event. Spaces within a zone are not pre-assigned; once inside the gate, stadium personnel direct you to an available stall. One parking pass covers one vehicle regardless of how many passengers are inside.
The Hollywood Park campus address is 1001 Stadium Drive, Inglewood, CA 90301. Drivers should use their zone-specific Waze link rather than a generic map app, since multiple entry gates exist and arriving at the wrong one wastes significant time.
Preferred and Premium Parking at SoFi Stadium
The Hyundai Blue Zone and Hyundai Brown Zone represent the closest and most premium on-site parking at SoFi Stadium, priced at the top of the range for Rams and Chargers games.
Hyundai Brown Zone is the most convenient option for fans entering through Entries 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 12, the gates that put you closest to the main stadium approach. Hyundai Blue Zone serves Entries 7 and 8 on the opposite side of the campus. Both zones fill earliest and are frequently sold out before event day for high-demand games. Season ticket members can access season-long parking packages, though those packages routinely sell out and are not available for individual game resale or transfer.
For VIPs, suite holders, and credential holders, the Red Zone and select Purple Zone inventory may be available by arrangement through the stadium. The Hyundai Orange Zone serves Entries 10, 11, and 12 and is the designated zone for ADA drop-off, making it a practical option for guests with mobility needs even if the Brown Zone is unavailable.
For any premium on-site zone, purchase through the official SoFi Stadium ParkWhiz portal or your team’s account manager. Third-party resale platforms like SeatGeek also list parking passes, though prices fluctuate. For playoff games or high-profile events, expect prices to rise well above regular-season rates.
Free Parking Near SoFi Stadium
There is no free street parking available for events within the Hollywood Park footprint, and the City of Inglewood prohibits event parking in residential neighborhoods throughout the city, violators risk ticketing or towing at owner’s expense.
The closest no-cost option for most fans is to park free on weekends at Norwalk Metro Station, then ride the Metro C Line to the LAX/Metro Transit Center and board the free SoFi Stadium Shuttle (Bus Bay 8). The total cost is $1.75 each way for Metro fare, a fraction of on-site parking prices. GTrans Line 7X operates Sundays from Harbor Gateway Transit Center for a $4 round-trip fare, and drivers can park free at the transit center before boarding. Torrance Transit and Culver CityBus Line 99 Express both offer round-trip service to the stadium area for approximately $2-$4.
For fans who prefer to drive and park off-site, the Inglewood Park & Go program run by the City of Inglewood and LAZ Parking provides over 4,000 additional parking spaces at multiple remote lots with shuttle service to the Intermodal Transit Facility next to SoFi Stadium. Shuttle buses run every 15 minutes before the event and begin return service starting at the end of the third quarter, running for 90 minutes after the game ends. Parking and shuttle passes are separate purchases and must be booked in advance at inglewoodparkgo.com, drive-up and walk-up rates are higher.
Can You Tailgate at SoFi Stadium?
Tailgating at SoFi Stadium is permitted only in the Hyundai Pink Zone, and only for fans who have purchased a designated tailgating pass, it is prohibited in every other zone.
The Pink Zone, which includes Lots I, J, P, and Q, opens 5 hours before kickoff, a full hour earlier than all other zones, specifically to accommodate pregame activities. Tailgating ends at kickoff; no tailgating is permitted after the game. Only propane and natural gas grills are permitted. Fire lanes and driveways must remain clear at all times, and only one parking permit is available per vehicle. Oversized vehicles including RVs and buses require an RV/Bus pass for Hyundai Lot P specifically; those passes are sold on a season-long basis and are not available for individual game transfer or resale.
Tailgating is offered only for select events, not all concerts or non-NFL events qualify. Always check the event-specific parking map before purchasing to confirm whether tailgating is permitted for your game. Violations, including tailgating in a non-authorized zone, can result in ejection from the property without a refund. For the full written policy, see sofistadium.com/plan-your-visit/nfl-tailgating-policies.
World Cup 2026 fans: tailgating is not permitted on FIFA match days. See the World Cup 2026 section below for complete details.
ADA and Handicap Parking at SoFi Stadium
SoFi Stadium provides licensed ADA parking stalls in every color zone for all events, including NFL games and concerts, available on a first-come, first-served basis.
To use an ADA stall, a vehicle must display a valid, state-issued ADA parking placard or license plate and must also possess a valid parking pass for the event. Displaying a placard alone is not sufficient, a standard zone parking pass is still required. ADA parking questions can be directed to parking@hollywoodparkca.com. To park as close as possible, arrive when parking gates first open. SoFi Stadium honors any state-issued placard for vehicles that fit within a standard 9-foot by 18-foot stall without impeding adjacent vehicles. Oversized vehicles such as RVs and limousines displaying disabled placards are not eligible for ADA stalls.
For guests who need drop-off rather than self-parking, ADA drop-off and pick-up is available north of the stadium on Kareem Court, the same location used for rideshare. Use address 3178 Pincay Dr, Inglewood, CA 90305. Drivers must access Kareem Court via northbound Prairie Ave turning east onto Arbor Vitae St, then onto District Dr, dropping off between Champions Way and Touchdown Dr, and exiting via westbound Touchdown Dr. Mobility Ambassadors are stationed at accessibility podiums inside Entries 4, 8, and 10 and can arrange wheelchair escorts from the entry to seats, ambassadors cannot bring wheelchairs into the parking lots. For off-site accessible travel, SoFi Stadium also supports Paratransit bookings; all Metro shuttles from the LAX/Metro Transit Center are wheelchair and mobility device accessible.
Uber and Lyft Drop-Off at SoFi Stadium
The official rideshare drop-off and pick-up zone at SoFi Stadium is on Kareem Court, north of the stadium, accessed via Pincay Drive.
When booking an Uber or Lyft, use 3178 Pincay Dr, Inglewood, CA 90305 as your destination. Drivers must access Kareem Court via westbound Pincay Drive and follow traffic control officer directions. Pick-up after the game is at the same location, the intersection of Kareem Court and Manchester Boulevard. Expect significant congestion and wait times after the final whistle; approximately 74,000 fans exit simultaneously, and rideshare apps routinely show 30-minute-to-over-one-hour waits with surge pricing of 3-5x normal rates following major events at SoFi.
Taxi service via Yellow Cab is also available at Kareem Ct. To pre-arrange a Yellow Cab, download the Yellow Cab mobile app or contact dispatch with your name, a callback number, and your requested pick-up time. The first available driver will be dispatched to the Kareem Ct. taxi location.
For post-game rideshare, one practical alternative is walking approximately 20 minutes to the Downtown Inglewood Metro station to catch the K Line, it avoids the surge entirely. If you must use rideshare, request your car before the final whistle so a driver is en route before the full crush of fans exits.
Public Transit to SoFi Stadium
Public transit is the most reliable way to reach SoFi Stadium on game day, with Metro rail, multiple bus routes, and a free dedicated shuttle all converging at the LAX/Metro Transit Center.
The primary Metro route is the C Line (Green) or K Line (Crenshaw), both of which stop at LAX/Metro Transit Center Station. From there, board the free SoFi Stadium Shuttle at Bus Bay 8, it runs every 3-5 minutes starting approximately 3 hours before kickoff and continues for about 90 minutes after the game ends. This is the official Metro connection for both NFL and World Cup events and replaced the Hawthorne/Lennox Station connection for the 2025/2026 NFL season. Single-ride Metro fare is $1.75 with a TAP card. From Downtown Los Angeles, the journey takes roughly 35-45 minutes.
Fans coming from Long Beach can board the C Line from Downtown Long Beach. The Westchester/Veterans Metro K Line station is approximately a 15-minute walk from SoFi Stadium for those who prefer to skip the shuttle. LAX International Airport offers free shuttles to the LAX/Metro Transit Center, making it especially convenient for out-of-town visitors flying into LA for a game or match.
Additional bus options include: GTrans Line 7X from Harbor Gateway Transit Center (Sundays, $4 round trip); Culver CityBus Line 99 Express ($2 round trip); and Torrance Transit from the Mary K. Giordano Regional Transit Center ($4 round trip). Several Metro Bus lines including 102, 109, 117, and 611 also serve the stadium area. Bike parking is available throughout the Hollywood Park district, bring your own lock.
World Cup 2026 Parking at SoFi Stadium
Parking for FIFA World Cup 2026 at SoFi Stadium operates under a completely different system than Rams or Chargers games, and fans who arrive expecting a normal game-day experience will face serious logistical and financial surprises. Read this section before you make any plans.
SoFi Stadium is known as Los Angeles Stadium for the duration of FIFA World Cup 2026, a sponsorship-blackout requirement that applies to all official FIFA communications, wayfinding, and match-day materials. The venue hosts 8 matches spanning from June 12 to July 10, 2026, covering the group stage, Round of 32, and a Quarterfinal. This is one of the largest World Cup hosting commitments among all 16 host cities, and match-day crowd levels, estimated at roughly 180,000 fans flowing in and out of the Inglewood area across the full event window, far exceed even the biggest Rams or Chargers game days. Officials have stated plainly that traffic near the stadium on match days will be severe, and that limited parking supply makes driving a costly logistical challenge.
FIFA has designated JustPark as its official parking vendor for Los Angeles Stadium. Official FIFA lot passes are priced between $250 and $300 depending on the match, and the closest available FIFA-designated parking involves approximately a 22-minute walk to the stadium entrance. Only one parking pass per customer per match is permitted through the official FIFA system, and the email address used to purchase parking must match the email address associated with your match ticket, passes can be cancelled for mismatches. Advance purchase is mandatory: same-day parking is not available. On secondary markets, prices escalate steeply, with some lots within a mile of the stadium listed at $700 or more, and select onsite-adjacent spaces reaching four figures.
Metro’s Park & Ride program is the most practical and economical driving option for World Cup 2026. Metro operates direct service to every World Cup match at Los Angeles Stadium (SoFi) for $1.75 each way. Reserved Park & Ride packages through SpotHero include a parking spot plus round-trip transit for up to three passengers, with early-bird prices ranging from approximately $55 to $101 depending on the location and match. The farther from the stadium, the lower the parking cost. Regular transit parking at Metro stations is also available on a first-come, first-served basis at standard Metro rates. All Metro trains, buses, and shuttles are wheelchair and mobility device accessible.
For World Cup 2026 match days, tailgating is not permitted anywhere in the Hollywood Park campus or FIFA security perimeter. This is a firm FIFA policy, the fan culture experience is centered at designated FIFA Fan Festival locations away from the stadium. The FIFA Fan Festival for Los Angeles runs June 11-15 at LA Memorial Coliseum, accessible via Metro E Line’s Expo Park/USC station. Ten additional World Cup Fan Zones are spread across LA County, including Union Station, for fans without match tickets to watch games on large screens.
ADA and mobility access for World Cup 2026 is handled differently than regular-season events. FIFA’s Accessible Mobility planning for Los Angeles Stadium is coordinated through official FIFA channels rather than the standard SoFi Stadium ADA parking process. All Metro World Cup shuttles are confirmed accessible. Fans requiring accessible transportation should review FIFA’s official accessibility guidance and LA Metro’s World Cup accessibility planning well in advance of their match date, and should not assume standard SoFi ADA parking procedures will apply.
The single most important World Cup 2026 parking tip: take Metro. The C or K Line to LAX/Metro Transit Center, then the free SoFi Stadium Shuttle, costs $1.75 each way and bypasses I-405, which experiences among the worst traffic delays in the United States within three hours of kickoff on major event days. Even if you have secured a parking pass, plan to arrive at least three hours before kickoff to account for road closures and the extended FIFA security perimeter that exceeds what fans encounter at NFL games.
SoFi Stadium Parking Tips
These tips apply year-round for Rams, Chargers, and concert events. World Cup 2026-specific tips are called out separately at the end.
For regular-season events: Buy your zone pass through ParkWhiz or Ticketmaster before the event, no day-of NFL parking is sold at the gate, and concerts frequently sell out in advance too. Save your parking pass to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet before leaving home; cell service near SoFi is congested on game day and screenshots are rejected at the gate. Your pass is gate-specific, go to the wrong entry and you will be turned around. Use the Waze link in your ParkWhiz confirmation email for gate-accurate navigation. Arrive when parking lots open (4 hours before kickoff for most zones, 5 hours for the Pink Zone) to avoid the worst traffic. All parking lots close approximately one hour after the event, do not plan to wait out traffic inside the lot for hours after the game. Rideshare pick-up on Kareem Court gets extremely congested post-game; if you use rideshare, request the car before the final whistle or walk 20 minutes to the Downtown Inglewood Metro K Line station instead.
For World Cup 2026 at Los Angeles Stadium: Book your parking or transit pass immediately after buying match tickets, FIFA official lots via JustPark and Metro Park & Ride spots sell out well before match day. Understand that official FIFA lot prices start at $250; Metro Park & Ride at $55-$101 is dramatically cheaper and logistically easier. Do not attempt to find day-of parking, none exists in the official system. Plan to arrive at least 3 hours before kickoff; I-405 and I-105 near SoFi gridlock starting 2-3 hours before big matches. Tailgating is not allowed anywhere on the campus on FIFA match days, leave the grill at home. Verify your parking confirmation email matches the email on your FIFA match ticket or your pass may be cancelled. For post-match departure, Metro is again your best option, rideshare surge pricing after 74,000 fans exit simultaneously makes Uber and Lyft expensive and slow.
