Blue Bombers Game Day: Plan the Journey as Well as the Football
Leave time for stadium travel, entry and the trip home.
Blue Bombers home games bring Winnipeg fans to Princess Auto Stadium through the football season. The match is the centre of the outing, but transportation and entry can determine how relaxed the day feels.
Choose your route before game day
Review current transit, park-and-ride or parking information for your specific game. The City provides guidance for football travel, including connections along the BLUE rapid transit line. Check the current fare and service details rather than assuming a ticket includes transportation.
Work backwards from kickoff
Allow time to arrive in the area, reach the correct gate and find your seats. If friends are meeting separately, agree on an outside meeting point or meet at the seats rather than waiting in a busy entrance without a plan.
Pack according to the stadium rules
Check the club’s current bag, food and entry policies before leaving. An outdoor stadium visit may require different clothing as the season moves from summer into fall. Keep your ticket ready and avoid bringing items that require a trip back to the car.
For newcomers, ask an experienced friend to explain a few basics during pauses rather than trying to study every rule beforehand. Keep the return journey flexible after the crowd leaves. The schedule, special transportation and stadium policies can change, so use the official game information for the date you are attending rather than a general fan post from an earlier season.
