History
Opened in 2003, Lincoln Financial Field replaced Veterans Stadium. It has hosted Super Bowl events, Taylor Swift concerts, Penn Relays, and CONCACAF matches. The Eagles won their first Super Bowl LII championship in 2018, cementing the stadium's place in Philadelphia sports lore.
Getting there
Take I-95 or Broad Street to Pattison Avenue. On-site lots (Lots A–P) require pre-purchased permits; they sell out fast. Expect heavy post-match gridlock. Overflow parking exists along Hartranft Street and surrounding blocks. Arrive 90+ minutes early.
Uber/Lyft designated drop-off is on Pattison Avenue near Lot K. Post-match surges are significant — fares can triple. Walk several blocks away toward Broad Street or wait 45–60 minutes for more reasonable pricing.
Take the SEPTA Broad Street Line (orange) to AT&T Station (Pattison) — a direct ~15-minute ride from City Hall Station. Trains run frequently on match days. The stadium is a 5-minute walk from the station exit. Highly recommended over driving.

Most fans stay in Center City Philadelphia (Rittenhouse Square, Old City, Midtown Village) for walkable dining and nightlife. South Philadelphia offers budget options closer to the stadium. University City near 30th Street Station suits transit-focused travelers. Book months ahead for World Cup dates.
