Getting there
Transport
Arrowhead is part of the Truman Sports Complex just off I-70 east of downtown, surrounded by acres of parking that fuel one of the NFL's premier tailgating scenes; arrive early and expect slow exits. There is limited transit, so most fans drive or rideshare to designated lots.
The area
The stadium shares the Truman Sports Complex with Kauffman Stadium, home of the Royals, in a parking-lot campus rather than a walkable district. Downtown Kansas City, the Power & Light District and the Chiefs' urban energy are a short drive west.
