Parking 

Parking lots around Huskie Stadium open several hours before kickoff, providing plenty of time for tailgating and pregame festivities. Fans are encouraged to purchase parking passes in advance, as spaces fill quickly for significant matchups. Tailgating is a cherished part of NIU game day, with fans grilling, playing music, and celebrating before the game begins. 

Public Transit 

DeKalb's Huskie Bus Line offers routes connecting the stadium to key locations across campus and downtown. For out-of-town visitors, Metra trains connect nearby towns to the DeKalb area, with shuttle services available to the stadium on game days. 

Rideshare & Drop-Off 

Uber and Lyft are readily available in DeKalb. The designated rideshare and drop-off zones near Stadium Drive make it easy to get to and from the venue. Due to postgame crowds, fans should plan for slight delays and consider scheduling pickups ahead of time. 

 

Arrival Recommendations 

For the best experience, arrive at least 90 minutes before kickoff. Stadium gates typically open two hours before game time, allowing plenty of time to park, clear security, and enjoy pregame entertainment.

For rivalry games and conference matchups, allow extra time for parking and entry, as attendance is often at capacity.

Game day at NIU is more than just football—it's a community event. Fans often gather hours before kickoff for tailgating around the stadium, complete with music, grilling, and friendly competition. Arrive early to join the fun and connect with fellow Huskies fans. 

If you're visiting from out of town, consider exploring nearby attractions such as Downtown DeKalbHopkins Park, or the Egyptian Theatre before the game.

Plan with your group by setting a meeting point in case cell service slows down due to game-day crowds.
