State Farm Stadium

We had an amazing time at State Farm Stadium to see the 49ERS and Cardinals play in the NFL. We appreciate all of the staff who worked inside and outside. They truly deserve to be recognized for their dedication and helpfulness. We were in section 449 and we had a great view of the field. The parking was very good and they had plenty of space as well as handicap parking. The stadium is great for adults and children. They also offer a variety of snacks and drinks.

Great football stadium and easy to access there. Various restaurants in the stadium. The good thing is, the traffic after the game is the most headache for me to leave a parking, however, State Farm Stadium has multiple parking lots around the stadium, therefore, I faced only a small traffic when I left the parking lot after the game. Of course, I could enjoy watching the game and also I was comfortable less traffic in the parking lot.

I was really impressed with how nice this stadium is. Access was super easy and entry was easy as well. As a 49ers fan I absolutely would love to come back for a game

Went for a drone light show. Venue was great, show was blah...continuos violin music played, drones weren't synced to the music...they landes every 4 or 5 minutes, reloaded? then took off again. Good beginner's show.

The stadium is beautiful, but man the walk to where ride share is was crazy! Hopefully they are working on better options. The staff was cool, which i appreciated especially since I flew in for the game, very accommodating.

We had a great time at the drone show. I do suggest getting there early so you can get a good spot. Getting out of the venue was a bit tough. The exits were choked off so only a few people could get out at a time.

Always love to enjoy a good Cardinals game. I went to 3 games this year. Each game was a lost unfortunately but alway a fun time.

Got hooked up w some tickets. Ended up in Section 105 row 36 great seats. Close to entrance and exit. Parked in black lot short walk to stadium. Purchase parking pass on seat geek in advance. The gentlemen at parking told us Handicap was full but it was not. Parents had to walk further.

I live in Las Vegas but I traveled to Glendale to watch my guys in teal and gold (aka Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars) take on the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium on 11/23/25. Out of all 30 football stadiums in America, this is the second one I've visited so far, the first being Allegiant Stadium back up in Vegas. I decided to take my friend and former coworker with me to the game; she and her son moved to Glendale last summer and they have State Farm Stadium literally in their backyard. Since this is a review for State Farm Stadium, I'm not going to talk too much about the Jaguars, as I do not want to push the buttons of Cardinals fans. And yes, I did watch the Jaguars play in Vegas three weeks ago. I had a groupie phase that dissolved a long, long time ago, but I followed them to Glendale so I could watch them, specifically Trevor, play one more time this season. We arrived at the stadium about an hour before doors opened, so we spent that time walking around, figuring out our recommended gate entrance, and watching other football games that were on. I found some really good seats just above the visiting team sideline at a reasonable price. Maybe it's just me or I'm used to the seats at Allegiant Stadium being crazy expensive. We sat in section 125, row 31 in seats 21 and 22 with an awesome view of the field. Their retractable roof was closed during this game because of the rain they had over the weekend. State Farm Stadium is a tad smaller than Allegiant Stadium, but still a good size. One mind blowing thing that they did before the game began is that they bought back every former Arizona Cardinals cheerleader dating back to 1984. Just seeing them come out endlessly was wild and I thought that it wasn't going to stop. I stayed at a hotel right across the street from the stadium, which saved me money by not parking onsite or parking at my hotel because I didn't have a car. I can't remember how much it was to park at the stadium, but it was $30 to park at my hotel. We sat next to a Cardinals season ticket holder, who recommended to us a really good food stand that was behind our section, called Pork on a Fork. He said that they have an excellent nacho brisket dish, and he was correct! My friend and I shared this and although the cheese was something (a little on the spicy side), it was delicious. I also had two Sunday Margarita drinks and I wish I had more. I didn't have to worry about driving, but I did had a flight to catch back home the next day. Our seats were behind Hyundai Gate 2, making entering and exiting very easy and simple. We stayed the entire game, which was sent into overtime and it ended up being a very close one. After this game, I went back to my hotel and traveled home the next day happy with a Jaguars win.

Morgan Wallen Concert I came recently for the Morgan Wallen concert, and while the performance itself was incredible, the overall venue experience was a major letdown. Layout & Concessions Let me start by saying the layout of this venue is chaotic at best. It took almost an hour just to get a bottle of water, and with so many people packed into one place, that's just not acceptable especially for families with small children or anyone with mobility or accessibility needs. There simply aren't enough concession options or staff to handle large crowds efficiently. Sound System The sound quality left a lot to be desired. I understand it's a massive stadium, but even still, the audio clarity was inconsistent and muffled, which took away from parts of the experience. Rideshare Nightmare The rideshare setup was the absolute worst part of the night. * Staff were giving mixed information, we were told there were shuttles to take us to the rideshare area, only to find out there weren't any. * Uber's designated pickup point wasn't aligned with the venue's location, so rides were getting canceled, and you couldn't adjust your pickup location within the app. * The Uber system crashed for 3-4 hours, and hundreds of people were left stranded outside the venue--families with kids, elderly guests, out-of-town visitors--no staff or help in sight. After hours of confusion and walking, a kind staffer on a golf cart was able to take us partway to the far east side of the stadium. My young child and I still had to walk nearly a mile just to get far enough from the crowds to (hopefully) catch a ride. We didn't get back to our hotel until 2 a.m. Even local law enforcement on site were frustrated, saying the situation was completely mismanaged. Comparison to AT&T Stadium (Dallas) To put this in perspective: I've been to AT&T Stadium in Dallas, which is just as massive--if not bigger. I attended a sellout event there with tens of thousands of people, and the difference was night and day. The rideshare setup was smooth, communication from staff was clear, and I was back at my hotel within 20-30 minutes of the concert ending. They had shuttles, signage, crowd control, and coordination--everything that was missing at State Farm Stadium. Final Thoughts I absolutely loved the concert, but I will think twice before returning to this venue, especially with a child or anyone who needs accommodations. The disorganization, lack of transportation planning, and poor crowd management made what should have been a great night incredibly stressful. Until they overhaul the rideshare logistics and improve their operations, I can't recommend State Farm Stadium for large-scale events.

Worst stadium ever!!!! First, had a clear purse except the bottom had a black strip. Security chased me down and even though they looked in find my clear purse and made me throw away the clear purse. Second, the stadium is a shot show! Plan at least 2 hours prior to your show or game and then one. You get inside plan for a wall to wall sea of people with 45 min concessions and 15 minute bathroom lines. Worst venue ever!!!!! Update... saw somebody else carry a non-clear Louis Vuitton purse. This place is not regulated, see pic below. Beyond pissed at this crappy place. Also ran out of candy at 2 places at 7pm. That's an hour in line.

Came here for a Cardinals game against Titans. This was my first time in a suite here. It was nicer than the Mortgage place, (they keep changing the name) but anywho very nice and staff was very kind. 5 stars

I don't even know what to say... clean and most importantly.... fully air-conditioned..... with Arizona's heat you absolutely need this.... no parking available in the area on the day I was there.... Plenty of food vendors inside...

State Farm Stadium Fact: This stadium is considered an architectural icon for the region and was named by Business Week as one of the ten "most impressive" sports facilities on the globe due to the combination of its retractable roof and roll-in natural grass field. Did you know that the oldest known stadium is the Stadium at Olympia in Greece, built around 776 BC? Now you know. I love this stadium. This stadium is nineteen years-old and hosts a multitude of events from concerts, the Cardinal games, three Super Bowls, Wrestlemania, and even hard seltzer festivals. They boast 14,000 on-site parking spaces, 88 executive suites, has the capacity for 63,400 (expandable to 72,200; standing room to 78,600) people. It's a marvel whenever I catch a concert or watch a Cardinals game here. I love it! I simply adore Glendale's State Farm Stadium.

Awesome first experience watching our team the 9ers play against the home state cardinals! 49ers for the win!!!! staff was friendly . Event was clean til after the game. Beautiful big stadium

Extremely poorly managed. As a small framed woman, I found the seating to be extremely packed and I am not large... think airplane seating tightness. Packed in like sardines. Parking and off/on-ramps do not move. Avoid. Way too big of a venue to be so poorly operated. Came here last night for Kendrick Lamar / Sza.

I have been to SFS enough times to remember the traffic, but not enough to remember... how bad the traffic is. I married to a St Louis Rams family who then became the LA Rams, and maaaan, the games are way more fun now. And the wins almost feel like they're guaranteed! We booked tickets that due to the current fires in California, the Cardinals allowed the Rams to take home tonight. We were assigned parking, but getting in was confusing since the city closed MANY streets down which of in return caused a lot of traffic. Once we were in though, it was pretty easy to get into parking and get checked in. The facility was clean, the restrooms were very well maintained, and the event staff was awesome!!

Came for a preseason game. There were definitely more chiefs fans than cardinals. Parking was a bit chaotic and took quite a bit of time to get in (get there early!). Compared to diamondbacks stadium, there seem to be less food options and people tend to not eat much during the game compared to baseball. Staff were nice and helpful to answer questions. Hope the bird gang have a good upcoming year!

I used to enjoy the monster jam and motor cross events so much here. I enjoyed some food locations even though the prices are outrageous. The parking is a nightmare as well. Just a crap show to exit after an event. But after recent public celebration of Charlie Kirk's death from "LOLA'S TACOS" owner (Lola Olivares), I hope this stadium will take a stance. She publicly despises and wishes death on a group of individuals who have a different political belief than her. How does this ensure the safety of that said group of individuals eating her food in the stadium? She has THREE locations within the stadium. Who knows if her workers feel the same way of not, but now this should be investigated by the stadium owners. No mater what you believe or don't believe, this is completely unacceptable and unethical. I would never feel safe eating there, nor should anyone else. If they see you wearing conservative gear or Charlie Kirk gear they may tamper with food. I guess there's a memorial scheduled for 9/21/25. The same people she wishes death on will be there, and may not know about this. She will take their money while wishing them death, which absolutely ludicrous. STATE FARM STADIUM OWNERS: PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS.

Had a fun time at the Bears vs Cardinals game here at the stadium. Great food venue's to choose from. The women's restrooms are really nice. I appreciated the fact that the exterior of the stalls are red in color, but the interior of the stall is yellow. Helped me to know which stall was open. Seats are what you would expect at a stadium. It was nice to see the dome open and watch the rain pour down onto the field. Shortly after the dome was closed. Either way, we won lol.

It's a great venue. The employees are all nice, concessions around every turn. The sections for the seating, specially at the top are a little hard to understand. Also the parking lot can become, and most times is, a disaster. Trying to get out at the end of the even is a nightmare. There is no organization whatsoever, it's just a frenzy.

I've been to State Farm several times for various concerts. We went and saw Post Malone this weekend. We bought nose bleed seats, but honestly still had a good view. The staff at the stadium were nice. The bathrooms were clean. I would say the biggest problem and thing to plan for is the parking is a mess in terms of trying to leave the stadium. Very little organization when it comes to leaving and it took us an hour to leave the parking lot. I've had this issue at every concert I've gone to. It is mostly a free for all when leaving the parking lot. We sat there and watched multiple cars and trucks fight to get out of there spots. So my point is, just plan on sitting for awhile in the parking lot.

State Farm Stadium is home to the Arizona Cardinals and the annual Fiesta Bowl. I was a Cardinals season ticket holder for many years when the Cardinals played at Sun Devil Stadium. Those were dreadful hot half empty games in a stadium not meant for NFL. This stadium eventually opened in 2006 and I kept my tickets for the first couple seasons. I gave them up because the Cardinals kept jacking up the ticket prices. The sucky thing is that the Cardinals with Larry Fitzgerald and Kurt Warner had a great season in 2008 the year after I gave up my season tickets and went to the Super Bowl. State Farm Stadium is located in Glendale and has around 63,000 seats. They can increase capacity to over 70,000 with standing room only seats. It has a retractable roof and a natural grass field that rolls in and out. The outside of the stadium was designed to represent a barrel cactus. This stadium used to be called University of Phoenix Stadium (dumb name) before State Farm got the naming rights. Even though the parking lot holds a lot of cars, it sucks trying to getting in out of here on games days. Westgate Entertainment District is next door if you want to enjoy food and entertainment before and after a game. The arena next door used to be home to the Coyotes hockey team before they left. Now they mostly host concerts. Outside of the stadium is a statue of legendary Cardinals player Pat Tillman. Tailgating is fun here with much of the activity taking place on the great lawn. It is fun to walk around and see what people are cooking up and creativity of their tailgating tents. I have Fiesta Bowl season tickets and have been to almost every Fiesta Bowl that has taken place here. I have also seen two NCAA Basketball Final Four Finals and a Mexico-U.S. International Friendly soccer game. State Farm Stadium has hosted three Super Bowls. Going to a Super Bowl is still on my bucket list, but I can't get myself to shell out the almost $2,000 price tag. State Farm Stadium has hosted many of the larger concert acts like Taylor Swift, Rolling Stones and Beyoncé. I have seen U2 on a couple of occasions in this stadium. State Farm Stadium is nearing 20 years old. Time really does fly. Even though it is a long drive from the East Valley, I have had many good times over the years tailgating in the parking lot and going to events at this stadium.

I chcked out State Farm Stadium on a Friday night to see The Weeknd in concert. While State Farm Stadium is the home of the Arizona Cardinals, they also host a lot of event. When I think of large stadiums, I think of difficult parking. And this certainly was the case here. When I got close to the stadium in Glendale, traffic was a nightmare. Since I'm allergic to paying for party (especially when you pay and then have to wait forever to leave the venue after the show), I circled around a lot in the hopes of finding free parking. I eventually found a spot a 20-minute walk or so away from the stadium. Since I don't want to give away my secret, I won't say where but I'm happy I was able to find an area where you can do so. I'd rather get my steps in then wait in a log jam to get out of a venue! Once you actually get inside State Farm Stadium, the experience is better. They have a lot of food and beverage options. I didn't have any food but I did get a tall boy beer. $19 . . . stadium prices. If you're on the upper level, finding the escalators is confusing because they're a bit hidden. The stadium itself is a cool one. They had the roof closed and the A/C wasn't great but ok. Getting out of the venue was quicker than expected so at least there's that. The difficulty became that they close down a lot of streets so it was tough to figure out how to get on the highway. Stadium tours don't have the best acoustics and you're going to deal with the masses but it's typically the only way to see the big names.

I have been here to a handful events since my last review and thankfully have had a good experience every time since then. From concerts to football games, its been a breeze . The only nightmare left is the parking situation before and after events.... We have learned to arrive super early and leave about 20 minutes prior to the event ending to avoid the parking lot madness. I always feel safe here and there is always security and police present. Employees are friendly and the stadium is clean. Great place.

Beautiful stadium. Great seats and a good game. I love the app it has clear directions for game day. I parked in the east preferred grey lot, which gave me nice access to the stadium and minimal traffic. Beware the clear bag policy. I had a clear bag with 1 piece of fabric on the side. I was denied entry, so I returned it to the car and loaded up my pockets. They have plenty of food and drink options, and the bathrooms are immaculate for a stadium. I sat in section 127 and had a great view and a great time.

Rolling Stones = 5 stars for rocking octogenarians! Sadly, Venue = 2 stars. 2 stars are for the acts they book. 1st visit to SF Stadium & the food/bev situation, plus poor crowd management detracted from the experience. The food items were plain old crap, nothing like other stadiums I've been to: stale popcorn, brand less hot dogs, stuff you couldn't get away with at a bargain movie theater. Just not impressed, especially the confusing &, at times, non existent and neglectful crowd management. Whoever was in charge of that part, it was shockingly not right. Short version: needs better food & way better security.

We come here a lot for concerts and to watch the Cardinals, even though it's an hour drive from Chandler. My boyfriend upgraded suite seats to the Casa Roja this time, and once we found it, it was such a great experience! Like a beautiful restaurant underground. The area was super clean, the food was delicious, and our seats had an amazing view. The only downsides were that a few employees didn't seem to know exactly where Casa Roja was, and getting into the stadium can be a bit confusing every single time.,Overall though, we always enjoy coming here and will keep making the trip, its worth it every time.

Recently, I attended the Copa América - México vs Ecuador match with a friend to visit State Farm Stadium for what I recall as the first time. I perhaps visited for a Cardinals game when they first opened, but that was ages ago before I was active on Yelp. The biggest advice is to arrive 1-2 hours early for your event at minimum as the parking situation with traffic is overwhelming! My friend has a handicap decal, but was flagged to go down the regular parking which resulted in more time circling the lot. I wish the parking lot attendants would be cognizant of someone pointing to the decal to direct appropriately. Due to the event having around 63,000 attendants this could be more of a large crowd overwhelming an overworked staff. Once inside, the stadium is very clean and modern. I was impressed with how easy security was and the entrance to the stadium. We had club level seats, so we had a more relaxed vibe once upstairs as there were both bars and food stations dedicated to club level ticket holders. The view was also pretty great making for a great experience! Lastly, be prepared to wait for an extended time to leave as well. Exiting didn't really have anyone directing traffic, so it's dependent on the kindness of other vehicles letting you in. Easily took us over 30 minutes to exit, so I would encourage to use the restroom before leaving as well. The traffic situation will definitely impact me from booking events as it is a headache I won't want to deal with on the regular.

I stopped by yesterday for the Morgan Wallen concert and it was amazing! Had a blast. This venue can hold up to 68k people I think - lots of people for sure! The place was nice and air conditioned except one area it was the lowest floor that was the warmest in the hallway area. It was a great time!! The security also helped me to my car and drove me with their golf cart - super awesome for that! The parking is huge by the way so pin where you park and remember it haha. The staff were amazing and friendly! The ambiance was awesome loved every bit of it. This venue is huge. It had 4-5 floors so honestly there is massive space here. I do however wish the stage was more open in the seats I was at, I got tickets pretty close to the front but with how the stage was set up it was not what I was expecting. The big screen on the sides were not as good as the main screen and that was disappointing due to the amount of money I spent on the tickets. I really thought I got good seats. Now I know for the future! It happens! I still had an amazing time!

We attended Monster Jam here last night. Paid for VIP parking, but could not get to it. Had three different parking attendants direct us into three different gates, but were told each time we could not get there from here. Finally one of the attendants suggested that we could park where we were next to, and abandon the VIP parking. $70 dollars wasted, and a very high level of frustration for my wife and I. Almost an hour spent trying to get to VIP, and ran out of time. We were almost an hour early to begin with. Really poor experience and a waste of money. All of the lot attendants were nice. Inside, I went to get food for the family. Excited to see a "Cold Beer and Cheeseburger" vendor. Beelined for it. Ordered a DoubleCheese, and it immediately came out, which means that it had been precooked and sitting. Red flag, but was in a hurry. Went to pay, and and the attendant reached over me to push the 10% tip option. I was stunned. I asked her....did you just give yourself a tip? She replied that the button she had pushed, and cancelled the tip. ( I had already seen the sales summary being displayed, and it clearly had a tip line. ) So she lied and stole from me. I would have asked for a manager, but the parking fiasco had already made us late, and the races were running already. Burger was cold and terrible. I will avoid future events at this venue. Such a shame that employees brazenly steal.

Am I a Cardinals fan now? I came here for the Patriot vs. Cardinals game, and had a wonderful experience here. Security/ticketing was quick and easy. We got through super smoothly and painlessly. Finding our seats was very easy, signage was perfectly marked. Cardinals fans are SO kind, wow. My partner was even wearing a Patriots jersey and everyone was so welcoming. We had a Cardinals fan ask if we wanted our picture taken when we walked up to the view of the stadium for the first time, the Patriots were losing in the 4th quarter and we went upstairs for a bathroom break and had not one, but two fans tell us not to leave yet even though we were losing. Drinks and food are expensive, as to be expected when you go to a stadium like this. Drinks were $13.50-$14.50 depending on what you got. Food is around the same. I got a personal pizza from the pizza place and it was delicious. Bathroom lines were long during certain times of the game, but they moved quickly. The bathrooms were always really clean. The only downside is leaving the stadium, which was organized chaos. It was expensive to find an Uber, and there were taxi drivers everywhere. Looking back, we should've waited it out and hung out for a little while before trying to find a ride. Great experience - I would come back, even though I'm not a huge sports fan!

Came for the Lions and Amon Ra St Brown :) the stadium was lively and prepare for a long walk to and from the rideshare . The food in the stadium was good also.

The game was great but the first two customer service workers i interacted with had zero customer service skills. I brought my clear purse to the game, couldnt bring it in bc it was pink and clear, okay. Then the second guy, i asked him how to get back in bc he was directing traffic. A simple, "it loops back around" would have been fine. Instead he groaned and said oh my god. This was my first irl nfl experience and i wish it was better. I made a whole yelp account just to say this. Surprised that guy has a job with that tude

I didn't plan to end up at State Farm Arena. In fact, a week ago, I didn't even know where it was. But the Rams-Vikings game, displaced by California wildfires, drew me to the sprawling desert city of Phoenix. I've seen my share of stadiums. California. Vegas. Denver. Each with its own personality, its quirks, its scars. And while State Farm Arena eventually won me over, let's not sugarcoat the start. Pre-purchased parking in the elusive green zone turned into a comedy of errors as navigation apps sent us to the wrong lot, where we were promptly dismissed without so much as a breadcrumb trail to our destination. Stadium entry wasn't much smoother. Pro tip: if you're building a state-of-the-art venue, invest in signage. Once inside, though? It was a revelation. I had club-level seats, so I can only speak to this gilded section of the arena, but let me tell you--this was football, reimagined. The space spanned nearly the entire stadium, with open bars and dining areas that felt more like a high-end food festival than a sporting venue. We started with a toast at the Veuve Clicquot Champagne Bar. Yes, a Champagne Bar in a football stadium. From there, it was freshly sliced roast beef sandwiches--so tender and flavorful they could've held their own in any reputable deli--and steak nachos so audaciously large they bordered on obscene, in the best possible way. Fans from both teams mingled in expansive, open spaces, drinks in hand, the tension of rivalry giving way to shared indulgence. The stadium seating itself? Comfortable. No cramped knees or architectural oversight. The roof, thankfully closed on this brisk evening, created a cocoon of warmth and light, making the game itself almost an afterthought. Which, given the Vikings' dismal performance, was just as well. State Farm Arena, for all its logistical hiccups, is a testament to what stadiums should be. A sanctuary for fans, food lovers, and curious onlookers alike. It's an experience, not just a game. Just fix the damn parking signs.

Sep/21/2025 the Charlie Kirk Memorial at this stadium was amazing! The parking lot had approximately 30,000 people waiting in line between 5-8 hours. They had no water stations set up and only 5-8 bathrooms available for 30,000+. People were passing out in the sun parking lot. I didn't see any security. My tax money paid for this!!!!

We were really impressed with the stadium and what a breeze it was to get in. SFS had really great communication on the event through their social media page, which we really appreciated. Plenty of food and drinks to pick from. Just wished there were a few benches or tables to sit at and eat besides your seat. Thanks, Posty was an awesome show!

My hubby's first nfl game, what a fun environment!! The seats were comfy but a bit tight. We sat in section 412, on the 45 yard line. We were able to see everything. The crowds were fun, too.

We had seats a Club level for the Final Four. I was concerned about the view in a football stadium for basketball games. But the view was actually pretty good (see photos). The club level does have some seating areas not available up higher (see photos). The concessions are pretty much the same. All in all great experience for Final Four.

Very nice, very demure, very cutesy!! I loved everything about this stadium! To top it all off we won!! They had really clean facilities, beautiful stadium to see my favorite football team. If you have never been here definitely should consider going to the State Farm arena..

I have been to the State Farm Stadium a handful of times, from Cardinals games to concerts. Security has always been smooth and secure, the bathrooms are never too bad and there are enough of them throughout the stadium that you are never searching too long. The parking lot is huge, to be expected and though it does take time to get in and out, it isn;t the worse I have experienced at a stadium of this size. Lastly, the suite's have always been nice, with friendly staff and tasty food, though not the typical visit. My most recent experience was when I went for the Eras tour - the concert was phenomenal, on a side-note! The entire production and quality from the sound to the views was great. The big loss is that the stadium ran out of water, which is really surprising to me, especially since we live in the desert, I feel that is something that should not be happening and is easily preventable. Other than being located on the opposite side of the valley to me, it's a nice stadium. As usual, expect to pay above average costs for food and beverage, but really just stack up on water or offer water refill stations if you cannot accommodate or manage the demand.

My review is two parts: one for the drive, parking, tailgating, and general AZ Cardinals experience pre-game, and two for the game, seating, access, and getaway. Our experience was Oct 19, 2025 Packers @ Cardinals. Pre-game: Does any team in the NFL present a more miserable, and confusing tailgating experience than the Cardinals? Yes, I am biased and spoiled as a Green Bay fan. The Packers wholeheartedly embrace the fans full-experience and make us all feel like family working toward a common goal of winning. The (typical) Cardinals experience makes you feel like you are always one-step away from violating some ridiculous rule and being reprimanded. Granted, both teams allow tailgating 4 hours before kickoff, but I've been to Lambeau Field as many as 5 hours early w out issue. The VERY VERY WORST OF ALL... You are NOT allowed to tailgate or stay in your tailgate and enjoy the atmosphere after the game kicks off or do any kind of celebrating after the game! What? What the hell kind of rule is that? Is it because you only win 41% of the games since 1899? You want your fans to stay away from the stadium if they don't have a ticket, then leave promptly if they do have a ticket. Disgusting. I guess unless you know how other teams are allowed to do it, you might find it normal - but it is NOT. In Green Bay, you can arrive early, have a massive party, never go into the stadium for a single game (we have friends who do that every game, every year) start tailgating all over again after the game, and you can leave the stadium lots when you are good and ready. Im sure there is a time restriction, we've just never seen it, or seen it enforced. In Wisconsin, we joke that you have until the next game to leave your tailgate party. It makes us feel important. It takes the sting out of an 18.00 beer. It makes us feel like we count in the pilgrimage for a championship. Maybe this is what being a perennial loser does to an org? "Thanks for coming and using two paychecks to bring your family, don't have too much fun, and then leave right away to minimize the experience and perhaps our liability." Maybe this is what happens when you lose so often? Or do you lose so often because this is how you function? Do you know how hard it is to lose 849 games in the NFL that is designed to take turns winning and being good? The Packers couldn't be more different in how they treat their fans, and their record, over the course of 100 plus years, not only represents that commitment to the fans and winning, but is almost exactly the opposite of the Cardinals. Green Bay has won over 800 games with only 600 losses and the Cardinals have lost 850 games while winning just 595 games (Im counting next week's loss to the Cowboys already) Do you realize that would take 15 UNDFEATED SEASONS in a row just to get back to being an team that wins only half the time??? An NFL team can hide its genuine desire to win over the course of any given season or even a decade, but when the sampling is 105 years and counting, it is indefensible. The drive from anywhere you would want to stay, East Valley, Scottsdale etc is a pain, but gets really stupid as you get to the poorly designed streets surrounding the stadium. You will find more confusing safety cones smatterings blocking off roads than is necessary and weird restricted or confusing-at-best, pathways to get to your lot. Parking personnel are not knowledgeable and don't seem to know how to advise if you get off the ideal route to your lot. Our Lot was Green F, and we arrived 18 min early and were among the first to park. We set up our RV, and half our tailgate only to be told we have to uproot and change the direction we were facing and move our vehicle. If you know RV-ing, you know how undesirable that is. This is the typical Cardinals experience that I have witnessed in the Valley for over four decades, watching this miserable organization try to give its consumers the bare minimums they need to remain supportive, only to get trampled by an organization that has had only one common denominator since 1932, well that and ZERO championships. I always warn out-of-towners they should be prepared for things to not make sense. Dysfunction will always be buoyed to underproduction and dissatisfaction. I give the pre-game experience a .5 half a star. The best parts being weather, great company, and the show of support for a team that actually cares about us... and thank goodness they can't manipulate any of that. The in-game experience was surprisingly excellent. Whoever, is in charge of ushers or guest services folk A+. Friendliness of the those greeters and service people in the building was amazing. So Un-Cardinal like to be treated so kindly. The food and timeliness of service is typical-minus w halftime lines too long and bathroom experiences (of course) confusing at best. Field, seating, and the space- excellent. Entry process excellent. 4 stars.

Love this venue, the A/C is top notch. Sadly the popcorn was stale, the corn dog was good.

Saw The Rolling Stones on their Hackney Diamonds tour at State Farm Stadium. Bought VIP Pkg which provided standing room only. Was impressed with stadium's staff and how well organized they handled the attendees as we were ushered to different staging points. Also noteworthy was 2 backup bands. Disappointed that no water fountains were available and a bottle water cost $6.00, beer $18 and mixed drinks more. With those prices why do they need Alcohol Compliance goons?

Venue for Supercross and the event was good and staff friendly. The parking- what a nightmare! It took us 27 minutes to back out of our handicap spot because I am handicap and then it took another 20 to get out onto the road to sit in traffic for even longer. There was no guidance on where to go to park for handicap, the guy was to tweaked out to listen to your question. The fact they don't have parking attendants at the end of rows to help people get out baffles me because these drivers definitely don't think they should let anyone out. Fix your parking!

Here to see Morgan Wallen, they show you a full bar but only serve certain drinks. Also parking is less than desired. You pay for parking ahead of time but still wait in long lines to get in. Not very organized, also now as we are trying to leave after the concert. We have been sitting in the same spot for 15 mins , I haven't even seen any movement. Where are the staff and the police doing overtime? There should be more organizing and planning to get people out of the parking lot.

We attended the Arizona Super Show here this past weekend. The car show & concert was well attended, & cars were displayed both (mostly) inside the arena & outside where the 94° temps were brutal. I'm dating myself here but when Oakland rappers Dru Down & Yukmouth (of the Luniz) took the stage, the 1990's version of me recalled every song lyric (& I can't even remember what I had for lunch yesterday!) So happy I got to see them perform because their songs really are a part of the soundtrack to my youth in the San Francisco Bay Area. Few complaints about the event set-up: concession stands were few & far between, & there was always a line on the arena steps to get either to or from the main floor because floor access locations were limited; this event was severely understaffed. However, the few staff members we did interact with were super friendly. Like most stadiums, State Farm Arena practices a clear-bag policy if your bag is over a certain size. Uber pick-up & drop-off area is far from the front doors so be prepared to walk a bit if you're calling a rideshare.

This review is regarding our experience after a show not the venue itself. I would only encourage they sell waters as people are leaving the stadium or have water dispensers available. We had a blast at the Morgan Wallen concert but the ride-share situation is horrendous. We took a Lyft (Uber) to the stadium and was told they must drop us off across the street. 105 degree weather! After the show we decided to stay in Westgate to get some food but every restaurant had 50-200 foot lines. We ended up walking to Raising Canes for food and wait for our Lyft 2 hours after the show ended. Prices of rides and wait times to get them were very high, $100 for a 10 mile drive. The traffic controller and Glendale City needs to work on this, as well stadium staff need to remind patrons they won't be able to find Water easily after leaving the stadium.

Awesome fan experience for Cardinals games at State Farm! Highly recommend catching a game or event here! Easy, affordable parking and food - strict clear bag policy but you can bring your own water in!

I really like The State Farm Stadium. It's a very nice place. It's very clean and well organized. The service and employees are awesome. The only negative thing I would say about it is I wish it was smaller. I definitely recommend this stadium.

I did the State Farm Stadium tour with a friend last Sunday. Mario was our tour guide and very engaging and full of cool information. The facility is gorgeous and all the information about that retractable field was so cool!! It was 111° outside that day but the tour was comfortable, not cold, and not warm at all. We definitely got our steps in, too!

This place is huge! Entry is organized, inside has lots of restrooms/consession stands (hot dog, pizza, chicken tenders and fries) and much more. Parking all around the stadium. Exiting was a little more difficult as it was a standstill for a good 30mins or so.

Excellent staff, air quality was great! Fun game, even tho my Cowboys lost! Just wish it were a little more organized with parking & wish they would sell Dallas gear as well as AZ gear

We went to the Rams/Vikings wildcard game that was moved from SoFi to Statefarm Stadium, due the the wildfires. We had a blast and we were very impressed with the hospitality shown to us. The field was fixed up to look just like SoFi , and the tribute to the fire victims was beautiful. Thank you Statefarm Stadium for hosting our team!

We went to state farm for a Luke Combs concert. Traffic getting to this stadium was crazy. So please plan for that. We did so I wasn't stressed about the bumper to bumper traffic going and leaving. Got parking in the nearest garage and walked over. Maybe 10 minute walk. Once at the gates they require you to have a clear bag. I didn't bring a bag at all so we went right through security and mediccheck and we were on our way. We have been to State Farm several times and we never had an issue. The staff has always been nice and helpful. Many places to get food and or drinks inside the stadium and surrounding outside.

Horrible job at the Charlie Kirk memorial. I waited over 4 hours to enter with no restrooms or water only to be turned away. Security moves slower that a fornicating turtle

We had a couple days of events here to case the perimeter for our master plan on game day. All weekend was pretty mellow and far from crowded. Only busy during the two concerts just outside of the stadium for a few hours. Most of the big events were in Phoenix and Scottsdale. With girls in tow and east side events being far and for adults we just kicked it here. My brother in law who just retired from the police force does not care for this area due to crime. We didn't have any issues even late on a weekend. The events were in a centralized area had detectors and scanners for weapons. Local police and S.W.A.T. were all around. I personally didn't see S.W.A.T. but a lot of employees were talking about them in the area. We parked behind Caramba's in an open lot and walked. Free parking. We left after each night right away grabbing a bite to eat and were able to hop into the car pull right onto Glendale Road. and and head home. The concession food reasonable. They definitely made their money on the drinks. They had food trucks parked outside which you could bring food into the stadium. Huge portions! Box seating had an upgraded menu and specialty drinks included. This was our first event here. We plan on coming back to compare events.
