About Texas Stadium - Parking Lot

Welcome to the Texas Stadium Parking Lot page. While the original Texas Stadium (2401 East Airport Freeway, Irving, TX 75062) is a historic site with a storied past, the surrounding area remains a hub for fans and visitors exploring Dallas–Fort Worth’s rich sports and entertainment history. Although the stadium was demolished in 2010, the lot and nearby environs still anchor memories for NFL fans, local high school playoff games, and film/TV productions that utilized the site. Here, you’ll find practical details on seating history, parking, transportation, and nearby lodging and dining—plus affiliate recommendations to help you plan a smooth visit or stay in the area.

Note: If you’re researching the site for redevelopment or future events, keep an eye on local zoning updates and development plans. The 2025 discussions have considered high-intensity mixed-use development with hotels and an arena, though casino elements were removed from the plan. For now, use this page as a reference for the legacy of Texas Stadium and the surrounding district, and let us help you secure seats or access to nearby accommodations when events resume in the region.
