Directions
Use the following directions to reach Lambeau Field on game day.
Traffic Flow
Lombardi Avenue will be one way westbound between Ashland and Oneida before the game, then one way eastbound between Oneida and Ashland following the game. The stretch between Oneida Street and Ridge Road will be westbound before the game and close at game time.

Oneida Street between Lombardi and Potts will only be open to those with reserved Lambeau Field parking passes before and after the game. (Oneida will be closed to all through traffic.) Motorists with parking passes will be required to enter the parking lot at the north or south Oneida Street entrances. They will be required to leave via the same gate. No traffic will be allowed on Oneida Street between the two entrances.

Ridge Road will be closed to all through traffic following the game. Traffic leaving the stadium parking lot will be allowed to exit. Vehicles using the north driveway will be directed northbound on Ridge Road, while vehicles using the south exit will be directed southbound. Through traffic will resume when pedestrian traffic has cleared the area with that determination made by officers on site.

Valley View Road from Lambeau Field to Ridge Road will be open to vehicular traffic, but the road will be divided to create a pedestrian walkway.

Armed Forces Drive at Oneida Street will close three hours before kick-off. The remainder of Armed Forces Drive will be closed to vehicles one hour before game time due to the heavy volume of pedestrians. Armed Forces Drive will remain closed until pedestrian traffic clears after the game.
Parking
The Lambeau Field parking lot opens four hours prior to kickoff. The entire stadium lot is sold out to holders of season parking passes with the exception of a limited number of first come, first served parking for people with disabilities. Reserved season parking customers must enter the lot at the entrance indicated on their parking pass and follow the directions given by the parking attendants. No busses, R.V.'s or oversized vehicles are allowed in the Lambeau Field lot. For information on season parking, or to be added to the waiting list for season parking passes in the Lambeau Field lot, please contact the Packers Ticket Office at (920) 569-7501.

Additional reserved parking is also available nearby on an individual game basis. For information please call (800) 895-0071 or visit www.ticketstaronline.com.

In addition to the reserved parking options listed above, free parking is available on many residential streets bordering Ridge Road, Oneida Street, and Lombardi Avenue within walking distance of the stadium, and many private property owners in the vicinity offer parking for a fee.
Drop Off Zone - Pregame
A northbound lane of Ridge Road (on the stadium's west side) is blockaded on game day to provide a safe and convenient passenger drop off area. To access the drop off zone, vehicles must be traveling north on Ridge Road and merge with northbound traffic upon exiting. Please respect any posted time limitations and heed the instructions from officers directing traffic flow in and out of the area.

As this area will be very congested in the immediate hour(s) after the game, it will not be designated as a post-game pick up zone. Drivers should arrange to meet their passengers at an alternate location after the game.
Fan Code of Conduct
The Green Bay Packers have enhanced Lambeau Field's fan code of conduct for the 2008 season.

The fan code of conduct is designed to set clear expectations for fans and encourage a stadium environment that is enjoyable for all game attendees. Additional signage detailing the fan code of conduct will be posted in stadium parking lots, at concessions and in the concourses, and announcements will be made in-stadium.

The Packers fan code of conduct is intended to address behavior that detracts from the gameday experience. - Read the Fan Code of Conduct
