About Princeton Stadium Parking Lots
Princeton Stadium, the centerpiece of Princeton University’s football experience, opened in 1998 as the successor to Palmer Stadium. With a capacity of 27,800 (up to ~30,000), the stadium sits on the university campus and features a four-sided bowl design with the closest seats just about 17 feet from the field. This page provides a comprehensive guide to the venue: seating basics, parking, transit, and nearby hotel and dining options to help you secure your seats with ease.
Whether you’re attending a weekend kickoff or a midweek game, we’ve got you covered with practical tips and trusted affiliate recommendations to enhance your visit.
Princeton Stadium is part of a broader campus experience. If you’re driving, plan for parking at Stadium Drive Garage or other university lots—weekday parking requires a daily permit before 4pm, while evenings and weekends open more options. TigerTransit provides convenient shuttle access from the Stadium Drive Garage with stops along Washington Road, Nassau Street, and University Place. After the game, local hotels like Nassau Inn, Hyatt Regency Princeton, and The Westin Princeton at Forrestal Village offer comfortable stays with easy access back to campus and area amenities. We’ve highlighted affiliate partner options to help you book trusted lodging and dining near the stadium.
Note: For events with date changes or updates, we’ll reflect RESCHEDULED from its original date when applicable and treat each day of multi-day events as standalone entries.
