Edmonton Elks fans can use pre-purchased, game-day tickets to access Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) on their way to and from home games at Commonwealth Stadium this season. ETS Football Park & Ride starts on Friday, May 30, for the Edmonton Elks pre-season game versus the B.C Lions, and continues for home games throughout the season.
Game-day tickets can be used as fare for Park & Ride service, as well as on regular bus or LRT service for two hours before the game, during the game and two hours after the game ends.
Starting two hours before game-time, Football Park & Ride buses will operate from the following locations:
- Eaux Claires Lot: 97 Street and 157 Avenue
- Lewis Farms: 1021 Webber Greens Drive
- Note: this location has limited parking spots due to Valley Line West LRT construction
- NAIT Lots A/B and D: 109 Street and 118 Avenue
- Note: parking is $6 at these lots.
- Naki Transit Centre (St. Albert): 15520 Campbell Road
Elks fans can also take the Capital Line LRT to Stadium Station, which is located near Commonwealth Stadium. Riders on the southside of the city can take the Valley Line Southeast LRT to Churchill Station and then transfer to the Capital Line to Stadium Station. Valley Line Southeast and Capital Line trains will run at regular service frequency on Elks home game days.
Routes 2 and 101 can take riders to the Stadium Transit Centre. Route 3 will use a temporary stop near Commonwealth Stadium on 86 Street/112 Avenue, as this route detours from Stadium Transit Centre on Edmonton Elks home game days.
Know before you go to Commonwealth Stadium:
All guests are encouraged to arrive and enter Commonwealth Stadium early to go through security screening lines. Gates will open 60 minutes prior to game time. The clear bag policy is in effect.
There will also be supervised bike parking at the northeast corner of Clarke Stadium (which is located southwest of Commonwealth Stadium). Signs will guide you to the drop-off and pick-up location.
Please note that parking restrictions in neighbourhoods around the stadium will be in effect for game days. When restrictions are in place, only residents with valid parking permits can park on the streets in those areas.
