Getting To Allegiant Stadium Today: Plan Your Route, Get There Early, Five New RTC Bus Routes, Park Along Strip Corridor/Walk Hacienda To Stadium
By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com
Realtor Justin Gannon is a sports fan who has a few ideas about the best ways to get to Allegiant Stadium, the 65,000-seat stadium with only about 2,500 park spaces on the actual stadium footprint on the west side of I-15 across from Mandalay Bay.
The Raiders say there are 35,000 parking spaces within a mile of the domed venue.
Gannon, a sports buff, created a video with tips and advice on reaching the stadium, which caused complaints about traffic and parking after the first two 100-percent capacity events for a Garth Brooks concert July 10 and a Mexico vs USA soccer match Aug. 1.
The Raiders make history today when they play a game with fans in the stadium for the first time. The Raiders home games last season did not have a single fan inside Allegiant Stadium.
LVSportsBiz.com has reported on five special RTC bus routes designed to serve Raiders games.
Treasure Island Las Vegas is also launching its TI Super Fan Shuttle, a $49 roundtrip service that will transport gameday sports fans from TI to Allegiant Stadium for all Las Vegas professional football home games. The non-smoking, deluxe motorcoach features comfortable seating, wi-fi and restrooms. Pre-game shuttles depart Treasure Island from Sirens Cove Boulevard near TI’s valet area. Drop off and post-game departure take place at Procyon Street and Diablo Drive and run every 30 minutes before and after games.
You can pay $100 for a parking spot on the stadium property or pay for a spot in one of the MGM Resorts hotel properties along the Strip, and then walk on Hacienda Avenue about 15 minutes to the stadium.
Several private industrial properties on the west side of the stadium are also selling parking spaces.
