Map: Ford Field and the listed hotels
Getting to Ford Field
Detroit People Mover to Broadway Station
The free elevated Detroit People Mover loop has a Broadway Station that sits around one block from Ford Field, making it a convenient option for big event nights. Visitors should allow extra time after an event as the station tends to get very busy immediately once a game or show ends.
QLine streetcar stop on Woodward Avenue
The free QLine streetcar runs along Woodward Avenue and has a Montcalm Street stop about a six minute walk from Ford Field. It also links the stadium area to Midtown and Greektown for pre or post event travel.
Official Ford Field parking facilities
Ford Field's own parking facilities are the Parking Deck on St Antoine Street plus Lots 4, 5 and 6, all operated by ABM Parking Services and allocated on a first come first served basis. Access to these facilities generally opens four hours before kickoff and tailgating or re entry is not permitted in them.
Dedicated rideshare drop off and pick up area
Ford Field designates a rideshare and guest drop off and pick up zone on Brush Street, reached by entering the southbound service drive from Mack Avenue, with post event pick up staging beginning later in the evening. Independent guides likewise describe the main rideshare corridor as being along Brush Street near the stadium gates.
No rail link from Detroit Metro Airport
There is no direct train or light rail connection between Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport and downtown Detroit. The SMART FAST Michigan Route 261 bus is the main public transit option, running roughly hourly to a stop near downtown, with the journey taking about an hour or more.
Gate opening times
Ford Field gates typically open two hours before kickoff for Detroit Lions home games, though this can vary for other events. Parking lots and tailgate areas open earlier, generally around four hours before kickoff.
Street closures affect drop off points
The Detroit Lions note that due to street closures and traffic routing on game day, drop off and pick up locations near Ford Field are limited, and fans are advised to check the team's game day page for current closures. On major event days such as the Thanksgiving game, some transit services like the QLine can be suspended entirely because of Woodward Avenue closures.
