Northwest Stadium Tickets & Events

Home to the Washington Commanders since 1997, Northwest Stadium is a large open-air football stadium in Landover, Maryland, just east of Washington, D.C. Northwest Stadium tickets bring fans into a double-decked bowl built for NFL Sundays, stadium concerts, international soccer matches, and major special events.

This page covers everything you need to know before you go — from finding the right seats to getting there, navigating the venue, and buying with confidence.

About Northwest Stadium

Northwest Stadium opened in 1997 as Jack Kent Cooke Stadium, became FedExField in 1999, and was renamed Northwest Stadium in 2024. The stadium is located at 1600 Fedex Way in Landover, Maryland, and is owned and operated by the Washington Commanders and their ownership group. Its current configuration holds approximately 65,000 fans, with an original design that was expandable to around 90,000 before some upper-deck sections were reduced in recent years.

The venue is best known as the home of the Washington Commanders of the NFL, continuing the Washington franchise’s stadium history after its move from RFK Stadium. In addition to Commanders home games, Northwest Stadium hosts large-scale stadium concerts, international and club soccer matches, and major one-off events. Notable performers over the years have included the Rolling Stones, Kenny Chesney, U2, and Beyoncé & Jay-Z.

Set in suburban Prince George’s County and surrounded by extensive surface parking lots, Northwest Stadium is closely tied to game-day tailgating, NFL crowds, and stadium-sized live entertainment.

Location & Transportation

Northwest Stadium is located at 1600 Fedex Way, Landover, MD 20785 — in suburban Prince George’s County, just east of Washington, D.C., with access from the Capital Beltway.

Driving and Parking: Northwest Stadium is accessed via the Capital Beltway, I-495, and the Landover/Arena Drive exits. The stadium is surrounded by large surface parking lots that support major event crowds and game-day tailgating. Pre-paid parking is strongly encouraged, and lots fill well before kickoff on Commanders game days. After large events, expect significant congestion leaving the lots and getting back onto the Beltway.

Transit: The Washington Metro serves the area via the Blue and Silver lines. Morgan Boulevard and Largo Town Center, also known as Downtown Largo, are the closest stations, with each roughly a 15–20 minute walk from the stadium. Metro is a common choice for fans who want to avoid event traffic, with walking routes and shuttle patterns used on event days.

Rideshare: Designated rideshare drop-off and pickup zones are used on event days. Because Northwest Stadium is in a suburban setting and tens of thousands of guests leave at the same time, post-event waits and surge pricing are common after Commanders games, concerts, and other major events.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available around the Largo and Landover area and along the Beltway corridor. Fans looking for a wider hotel selection can also stay in Washington, D.C. proper, which is accessible by Metro, or in nearby suburbs such as Greenbelt, Hyattsville, and National Harbor.

Venue Navigation

Northwest Stadium is a large outdoor football bowl with multiple perimeter gates, surrounding parking areas, and seating spread across lower, club, suite, and upper levels. Understanding your gate, level, and section before arriving can help reduce walking time around the stadium’s large footprint.

Entrances and Access: Guests enter through multiple gated entrances positioned around the stadium perimeter. Fans are typically directed toward the gates nearest their seating section and parking area. Metro riders commonly approach the venue on foot from the Morgan Boulevard and Largo side.

Concourse Levels: The stadium uses a double-decked bowl layout with lower-level seating, club and mid-level seating, suites, and an upper deck. Concourses serve the respective seating levels, so moving efficiently starts with knowing whether your seats are in the lower level, club/mezzanine level, suite areas, or upper level.

Accessibility: Northwest Stadium provides ADA-accessible seating, accessible parking, accessible restrooms, and accessibility services throughout the stadium consistent with NFL venue standards.

Getting to Your Section: Signage and event staff help direct guests to gates, levels, and sections. Because the stadium footprint is large and the lots can place fans on different sides of the venue, checking your gate and section on your ticket before arrival helps keep the walk more direct.

Dining Options

Inside Northwest Stadium

Northwest Stadium offers a wide range of concessions, including stadium staples, regional specialties, beer, and other alcohol options. Premium and club areas offer upgraded food-and-beverage service for guests in those sections. Lines and pricing are typical for a major NFL stadium, so building in extra time before kickoff, showtime, or halftime can make the food stop easier.

Outside the Venue — Landover and the Washington, D.C. Area

Dining near Northwest Stadium is concentrated around the Largo Town Center area and along the Beltway corridor. National Harbor and Washington, D.C. offer broader dining scenes within a short drive or Metro ride. On Commanders game days, tailgating in the surrounding lots is a central part of the food experience for many fans.

Security & Policies

Northwest Stadium maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.

Bag Policy: Northwest Stadium enforces the NFL clear-bag policy. Clear plastic bags up to roughly 12" x 6" x 12" and small clutch bags are permitted, while non-clear and oversized bags are prohibited.

Commonly Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside food and beverage, large bags and backpacks, professional cameras, drones, laser pointers, selfie sticks, and similar items are typically prohibited.

Re-Entry: Re-entry is generally not permitted once a guest has exited. Re-entry rules can vary by event and are shown on the event listing.

Entry Procedures: Guests pass through security screening, including metal detection and bag checks. Mobile digital ticketing is standard for entry, and arriving with a compliant bag and pre-downloaded tickets can help speed the process at the gate.

How Much Do Tickets to Northwest Stadium Cost?

Northwest Stadium ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist or opponent, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from regular-season NFL games to major stadium concert tours.

For Washington Commanders regular-season games, tickets can start around $40 for select seats and rise to roughly $250 or more depending on the opponent and seating location. Matchups with stronger demand, better lower-level locations, and preferred dates generally cost more.

Marquee and divisional games, along with premium seats, can range from roughly $250 to $600 or more. Primetime dates, rivalry matchups, and high-demand seating areas can push prices toward the top of that range.

For stadium concerts, tickets are often priced from roughly $50 to $400 or more depending on the artist, section, and demand. Floor seating, lower-bowl seats, and major touring acts typically command higher prices than upper-level seats.

Buying earlier generally yields better seat selection and pricing, especially for high-demand opponents and major concert tours. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, prices for the best remaining sections often rise.

Northwest Stadium Seating Guide

Northwest Stadium has a double-decked bowl layout with lower-level seating, club and mezzanine areas, suites, and an upper level encircling the field. Seat choice matters because football games, concerts, and soccer matches can each place the best value and best views in different parts of the stadium.

Best Seats at Northwest Stadium

• Best value: Upper-level sections, especially in the corners and end zones, are typically the most affordable way to get inside the stadium while still taking in the full scale of the event.
• Closest to the action: Lower-bowl sideline and end-zone rows nearest the field offer the closest proximity for Commanders games, soccer matches, and stadium events.
• Best overall experience: Lower-level sideline sections along the 40–50 yard lines offer strong overall sightlines and atmosphere for football, balancing field view, crowd energy, and proximity.
• Premium and suite options: Club seats, suites, and premium hospitality areas at the mid-level provide upgraded service, additional comfort, and privacy for premium buyers and groups.
• For groups: Group seating blocks are available for larger parties, and arranging contiguous seats early is especially useful for high-demand games and major concert tours.
• General admission: Some concerts may include a GA floor, giving fans a more flexible standing-room experience near the stage when that configuration is used.

The map lets you compare sections side by side, check row depth and distance from the field or stage, and see real-time pricing for what's currently available — all before committing to a purchase.

Yes. The interactive seat map on BoxOfficeTicketSales.com shows your exact section and row placement before you buy.

Getting Ready for Your Northwest Stadium Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a large open-air stadium with major parking areas, Metro approaches, and game-day crowds.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Cell service can be congested with large crowds at Northwest Stadium. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the gate without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Lots and Metro fill well before kickoff, and Beltway congestion builds around the stadium on event days.
• Wear the right footwear. Expect long walks from parking lots and Metro stations, plus stairs inside the stadium. Comfortable shoes make a noticeable difference.
• Dress in layers. Northwest Stadium is an open-air venue exposed to heat, cold, and rain. Dress for the forecast and bring layers for late-season games.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. Metro, parking lots, and nearby roads all get busier as event time approaches, especially for Commanders games and major concerts.
• Know your entrance. Your gate, level, and section appear on your ticket, and checking them before you arrive helps you head toward the right side of the stadium from the start.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
