Estimates for ~12 mi / ~15 min at Tourch's fixed rates (no surge). Match-day traffic adds time, not surge multipliers. Final fare is confirmed at booking.

Where to get picked up

There’s no rideshare drop-off on stadium property — all TNC pickups route to the Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment zone next door, then a ~1-mile walk to the gates. Expect heavy surge and long post-match waits, especially after the Final; pre-book in the app before you leave your seat.

Transit alternative

NJ Transit runs a dedicated match-day train: New York Penn Station → Secaucus Junction → direct stadium train, ~20–30 minutes, $98 round-trip in the NJ Transit app (FIFA ticket holders only, capped at 40,000/match). A $20 round-trip shuttle bus also runs from Port Authority and a few NYC/NJ points.

Match-day traffic

Don’t drive — there’s no spectator parking (the nearest option is American Dream mall at ~$225). All traffic funnels through NJ Turnpike Exit 16W and Route 3, which trap drivers 60–90+ minutes post-match; Final-day egress will be far worse.
