Minnesota Vikings at New Orleans Saints

Getting there

Walk west (lake-bound) along Poydras Street toward the stadium and Champions Square, and follow the signs marked “To the Stadium & Arena.” Doors open two hours before kickoff; use the gate named on your mobile ticket’s Personal Game Plan.

Getting back

Leave through the main entrances and walk east (river-bound) along Poydras Street back into the CBD.

There’s no re-entry once you leave the stadium’s extended perimeter. Poydras between Loyola Avenue and Carondelet Street is the rideshare zone.

Getting there

Walk out of the Quarter across Canal Street, then west along Poydras Street to the stadium, about a mile. Follow the “To the Stadium & Arena” signs from Loyola Avenue.

Getting back

Walk east along Poydras and back across Canal Street into the Quarter.

No official walking route is published. Canal and Poydras are wide, busy streets; cross with the crowd and event staff. The Royal Sonesta puts the stadium a mile from Bourbon Street.

Getting there

Board the 46 Rampart–Loyola streetcar on Rampart Street at the edge of the Quarter and ride toward Union Passenger Terminal. It runs down Loyola Avenue past Poydras Street, a short walk from the stadium. The single fare is $1.25.

Getting back

Board the streetcar back toward Canal Street and Rampart from Loyola Avenue.

RTA’s Fall 2026 timetable shows a car every 30 minutes, from about 5:45 a.m. to about midnight, and no extra game-day service is published. After the game, walking may be faster than waiting.

Getting there

Board the 12 St. Charles streetcar on St. Charles Avenue heading toward Canal Street. Get off in the CBD near Poydras Street and walk west along Poydras to the stadium, about three-quarters of a mile in a straight line. The single fare is $1.25, or $3 for a 1-Day Jazzy Pass.

Getting back

Walk back to St. Charles Avenue or Carondelet Street and ride the streetcar out toward Uptown.

RTA’s Fall 2026 timetable runs the St. Charles line every day, about every 10 minutes around midday, every 15–35 minutes early and late, and through the night at roughly half-hour gaps. No extra game-day service is published.

Getting there

Book a rideshare to the zone on Poydras Street between Loyola Avenue and Carondelet Street; drop-offs anywhere else near the stadium aren’t allowed. Walk about three blocks west along Poydras to the stadium.

Getting back

Leave through the main entrances, walk east along Poydras Street following the “Rideshare Pickup” signs, and request your ride only once you reach the zone.

The zone is geo-fenced, so request your pickup only once you’re inside it.

Getting there

Take I-10 east toward downtown, stay right to downtown at the I-610 split, and take exit 234A for Claiborne Avenue and the Superdome. Garage 1A, Lot 3, Lot 3A and Champions Garage are sold first come, first served on game days; the other garages are for season-ticket holders.

Getting back

Follow the Saints’ gameday egress traffic and parking map and any police direction when you leave the garage.

Parking passes are mobile, and the stadium is cashless, parking included. Cars in the A, B and C lanes of Garages 1, 2, 5 and 6 and the ADA lots go through a canine vehicle screening before entry.

Getting there

Take the hotel’s free airport shuttle to MSY, then board RTA’s Airport Express (202) outside Level 1 Baggage Claim, Door 2. It stops at Poydras at Freret, near the stadium, and the fare is $1.25.

Getting back

Board the Airport Express at Union Passenger Terminal, Bus Bay 2, for the airport, then call the hotel shuttle.

The bus runs daily but only about once an hour: RTA’s Fall 2026 timetable shows the last trip from the airport at 10:10 p.m. and the last from UPT at about 9:18 p.m., so it won’t work after a Monday night game. The hotel shuttle needs a reservation.
