Oakland Coliseum Tickets & Events

A storied East Bay sports landmark at the Coliseum Complex, Oakland Coliseum has hosted baseball, football, soccer, stadium concerts, and community events since opening in 1966. Oakland Coliseum tickets connect fans with a multi-purpose venue known for its circular bowl, its towering “Mount Davis” expansion, and decades of Oakland sports and concert history.

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 Oakland Coliseum

Oakland Coliseum, officially the Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum, opened in 1966 at 7000 Coliseum Way in Oakland, California. The venue underwent a major 1995–1996 renovation to accommodate the returning Raiders, adding the large outfield/end-zone seating structure known as “Mount Davis.” It has historically been jointly owned by the City of Oakland and Alameda County through the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority, with ownership interests shifting in recent years and the African American Sports and Entertainment Group among parties involved in acquiring the site.

The venue was designed as a dual-configuration stadium, serving as both a baseball park and a football stadium across its history. Capacity varies by configuration, with approximately 46,000–47,000 seats for baseball and expanded setups of roughly 56,000–63,000 for football, while concerts and soccer events use their own field-and-stands arrangements. The Coliseum sits within the broader Coliseum Complex alongside Oakland Arena, making the site one of Oakland’s best-known live-event destinations.

Oakland Coliseum is closely tied to Oakland Athletics dynasties, Oakland Raiders Super Bowl-era teams, and more recent Oakland Roots SC matches. It has also hosted stadium-scale concert tours, including acts such as the Rolling Stones and U2. Its circular bowl design and the defining Mount Davis structure remain two of the most recognizable features of the venue.

Location & Transportation

Oakland Coliseum is located at 7000 Coliseum Way, Oakland, CA 94621 — in East Oakland within the Coliseum Complex, adjacent to Oakland Arena and just off Interstate 880.

Transit: Oakland Coliseum is exceptionally transit-accessible for a stadium. The Coliseum BART station connects directly to the venue via a pedestrian bridge, with service across the Bay Area including downtown Oakland, San Francisco, and Oakland International Airport via the BART-to-OAK connector. Amtrak’s Coliseum station is also nearby, giving fans another rail option for event travel.

Driving and Parking: The venue is located just off Interstate 880, also known as the Nimitz Freeway. Extensive on-site surface parking lots serve the Coliseum Complex, and parking is paid with pricing that varies by event. Lots typically fill closer to event start, and roadways near I-880 can become congested as arrival time approaches.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are available on-site. After large events, pickup can involve waits and designated staging areas, so building in extra time after the show or game can make departure smoother.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is concentrated near Oakland International Airport and along the I-880 corridor. Downtown Oakland and the broader East Bay also offer hotel options within a short drive or BART ride of the venue.

Venue Navigation

Oakland Coliseum has a large circular bowl layout with multiple levels, stadium gates around the venue, and a major pedestrian connection from BART. Understanding your gate, level, and arrival path before event day helps you move through the complex more efficiently.

Entrances and Access: Primary pedestrian access is via the BART pedestrian bridge, which connects Coliseum station directly to the stadium plaza. Additional gate entrances ring the bowl from the parking lots, giving drivers and rideshare users multiple access points around the venue.

Seating Levels: The bowl is organized into a lower field/plaza level, a middle club level with club seating and luxury suites, and an upper deck. The Mount Davis structure forms the large third-deck seating area in the outfield or end-zone portion of the stadium, depending on the event configuration.

Accessibility: ADA-accessible seating and services are available throughout the venue, consistent with major professional stadium standards.

Getting to Your Section: Concourse signage and venue staff direct guests to sections. Because Oakland Coliseum is a large multi-level venue, checking your level and gate before arriving can reduce extra walking, especially when entering from the BART pedestrian bridge or from the surface parking lots.

Dining Options

Inside Oakland Coliseum

Oakland Coliseum offers standard stadium concessions, including ballpark fare, with alcohol available. Club and suite levels have historically offered premium food service, giving premium-seat and suite guests elevated hospitality options. Lines can build close to event start and during peak breaks, so arriving early can help if you want food before the main action begins.

Outside the Venue — East Oakland

The immediate area around the Coliseum is industrial and commercial, with limited walkable dining. A wider range of restaurants can be found in nearby Oakland districts such as Fruitvale and downtown Oakland, including Jack London Square, which are accessible by a short drive or BART ride.

Security & Policies

Oakland Coliseum 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: Major-event stadium bag policies typically restrict bag size and may require clear bags. Small clutch-size bags are generally permitted, and requirements can vary by event and promoter.

Commonly Prohibited Items: Commonly restricted items include weapons, outside food and beverages, professional cameras, drones, laser pointers, and oversized bags.

Re-Entry: Re-entry is typically not permitted once you have exited. Event-specific re-entry rules are shown on the event listing.

Entry Procedures: Expect security screening, including bag checks and metal detection, along with digital or mobile ticket verification at the gates. Arriving with a compliant bag and pre-downloaded tickets helps speed entry.

Oakland Coliseum Seating Guide

Oakland Coliseum seating is shaped by its circular bowl and event-specific configurations, which can convert between baseball, football, soccer, and concert layouts. Knowing how the lower bowl, club level, upper deck, and Mount Davis areas relate to the field or stage helps you choose seats that fit your budget and viewing preferences.

Best Seats at Oakland Coliseum

• Best value: Upper-deck and outfield/Mount Davis sections are typically the most affordable areas, offering a broad view of the venue and strong value for fans who want to be in the building at a lower price point.
• Closest to the action: Field-level and lower-bowl sections nearest the diamond, sideline, or stage put you closest to the field or performance area.
• Best overall experience: Lower-bowl seats along the infield or midfield and club-level seating offer some of the strongest sightlines, with club areas adding enhanced amenities.
• Premium and suite options: Club seating and the venue’s 140-plus luxury suites serve premium and group buyers who want added comfort, service, and privacy.
• For groups: Large group areas can be accommodated in the expansive upper and outfield sections, especially when contiguous seats are selected early for in-demand events.
• General admission: Some concerts and events offer GA field or floor configurations, while sports seating is typically reserved.

Getting Ready for Your Oakland Coliseum Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at an open-air stadium with a large complex, multiple gates, and a direct BART pedestrian bridge.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Mobile service can be congested during large events. 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. BART is the most efficient arrival method, and early arrival helps on large-event days when parking lots and roadways near I-880 congest close to start time.
• Wear the right footwear. Oakland Coliseum has a large bowl with stairs and significant walking across the complex and from BART, so comfortable shoes are recommended.
• Dress in layers. The open-air stadium is subject to Bay Area evening cooling and wind, especially for night events.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. If you are driving, allow extra time for paid parking, lot entry, and traffic near I-880. If you are using BART, factor in the walk across the pedestrian bridge and crowds after the event.
• Know your entrance. Your gate and level help determine the easiest route through this large multi-entrance venue, especially when arriving from the BART pedestrian bridge.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
