NRG Stadium

NRG Stadium is located in NRG Park in southwest Houston, about 10 miles from downtown. George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) is roughly 28 miles north, and William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) is about 10 miles east and more convenient for the stadium. The METRORail Red Line runs from downtown to the NRG Park/Fannin South station, directly adjacent to the stadium complex. METRO also runs express shuttle buses on event days from various park-and-ride lots. NRG Park offers extensive on-site parking, but lots fill early and traffic on Kirby Drive and South Main can be heavy. Rideshare staging is at the Yellow Lot off Holly Hall Street.

The Museum District and Rice Village (about 10 minutes north) form Houston's cultural core, with the Menil Collection, Museum of Fine Arts, diverse restaurants, and craft beer bars along Bissonnet and Rice Boulevard. Midtown Houston (about 15 minutes north) is a nightlife hotspot with rooftop lounges, cocktail bars, and late-night taquerias along Bagby and Main Streets. EaDo (East Downtown) near BBVA Stadium is Houston's emerging entertainment district with breweries, food halls, and live music venues along Navigation Boulevard.

NRG Stadium enforces a clear bag policy for all events. Clear bags must be 12" x 6" x 12" or smaller, made of plastic, vinyl, or PVC. One-gallon clear zip-seal bags are accepted. Small non-clear clutch purses (4.5" x 6.5" or smaller) are also allowed. Prohibited items include all backpacks, coolers, camera bags with extra lenses, and any non-clear bag exceeding the clutch dimensions. Medically necessary items and diaper bags are permitted with screening. NRG Park provides a bag check service outside the stadium gates for a nominal fee.
