At a Glance
The essentials before you book anything — capacity, the best seats, premium tiers, parking, and where to stay for a Dallas Cowboys game or any major event at AT&T Stadium.
The Experience
Opened in 2009 and home of the Dallas Cowboys, AT&T Stadium pairs a retractable roof and full climate control with one of the largest column-free interiors and video boards in the world — built to host everything from NFL Sundays to Super Bowls, Final Fours, and world title fights.
The Stadium
- A retractable roof and huge end-zone glass doors — opened in good weather, closed to manage summer heat or winter cold
- Full climate control throughout the seating bowl and concourses, regardless of the conditions outside
- The iconic center-hung video board is among the largest in the world, with clear replay visibility from every level
- The 300 Level mezzanine offers the best value-to-experience ratio in the building — strong angles and excellent board views
- Field Level Suites sit within feet of the action — the highest-impact group experience available
- A clear-bag policy is enforced at every gate; confirm the specific event’s requirements before arriving
Arrive Ready
- 90 minutes early minimum — parking, the outdoor walk in, and security all add to entry time for big games
- No direct rail service — rideshare, car, or private transport are the practical options from Dallas or Fort Worth
- Pre-purchase parking online well in advance; the closest lots sell out for Cowboys games and marquee events
- Parking, rideshare zones, and walking routes are outdoors, so plan for Texas heat early in the season
- Globe Life Field (Texas Rangers) is adjacent — an easy same-trip combination for baseball fans
Events at AT&T Stadium
AT&T Stadium is the year-round home of the Dallas Cowboys and one of the busiest major-event venues in the country — hosting college football, the biggest concert tours, championship boxing, and marquee international events.
Dallas Cowboys Football
- Home of the Cowboys since 2009 — a full slate of preseason and regular-season home games from August through the playoffs
- The Cowboys host a nationally televised game at AT&T Stadium every Thanksgiving, one of the NFL’s signature traditions
- NFC East rivalry games against the Eagles, Giants, and Commanders bring the loudest, highest-demand atmospheres
- Playoff football, when the Cowboys host, is the hardest ticket of the year — plan well ahead
Concerts & Major Events
- Super Bowl XLV (2011), the NCAA Men’s Final Four (2014), and record-setting WrestleMania crowds
- The biggest global concert tours regularly play the stadium, using the full end-zone-door stage configuration
- Championship boxing, the CONCACAF Gold Cup, and international soccer friendlies
- A FIFA World Cup 2026 host venue — nine matches including a semifinal (see the World Cup section below)
A College Football Hub
AT&T Stadium hosts the annual Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic, the Big 12 Championship Game, and marquee neutral-site kickoff games each season. These draw huge national crowds and are among the best-value football tickets at the venue outside of Cowboys Sundays.
Where to Sit
For Cowboys and college football, the lower-level sideline between the 20s is the premium choice, while the 300 Level mezzanine is the value pick with a full-field view. For concerts, the floor and lower sideline are closest to the stage. Full breakdown in the seating section below.
Arlington & DFW
The stadium anchors the Arlington Entertainment District alongside Globe Life Field and Six Flags Over Texas, midway between Dallas and Fort Worth. A game here pairs naturally with a Rangers game, Uptown Dallas dining, or Fort Worth’s Stockyards — plan at least two days for a full trip.
Tell us your game or event — a Cowboys Sunday, a Thanksgiving game, a concert, or the Cotton Bowl — and we’ll confirm availability and build the full Dallas–Fort Worth package.

World Cup 2026 at AT&T Stadium
AT&T Stadium was one of the Dallas host venues for the FIFA World Cup 2026, staging nine matches across the group stage and knockout rounds — including a semifinal on July 14, 2026, one of only two in the tournament.
9 Matches, Incl. a Semifinal
Five group-stage matches, two Round of 32 fixtures, a Round of 16 fixture, and a semifinal on July 14 — one of the marquee venues of the tournament thanks to the climate-controlled roof and 80,000-plus capacity.
How World Cup Seating Worked
World Cup tickets were sold in FIFA price categories by location: Category 1 was lower-bowl longside (sideline), Category 2 the corners and upper sideline, and Category 3 behind-goal and upper bowl. For soccer, longside sideline seats gave the best full-pitch view.
Dallas & the DFW Metroplex
Dallas–Fort Worth was one of the tournament’s busiest host regions. For the full city breakdown, see our World Cup 2026 Dallas travel guide, which covers the wider region in depth.
Looking ahead, AT&T Stadium continues as the home of the Dallas Cowboys and a year-round host of college football, concerts, and major events. For current tickets and premium access to any of them, reach out any time.
AT&T Stadium — Common Questions
The questions fans ask most, plainly answered.
The best seats at AT&T Stadium for a Cowboys game are the lower-level (100s) sideline sections between the 20-yard lines — the closest, most balanced view of the field with the loudest atmosphere. The Sideline Club adds wider seats and premium concourse access. If value matters, the 300 Level mezzanine sideline is the standout: a full-field view and excellent video-board sightlines at a fraction of lower-bowl pricing.
Parking at AT&T Stadium is sold in tiers by proximity to the gates — the closest premium lots cost the most, general lots farther out cost less. Prices rise sharply for Cowboys games and marquee events, and the best lots sell out, so pre-purchase online in advance. Premium and VIP parking is often bundled with suite and club packages, which is one reason groups upgrade.
AT&T Stadium enforces a clear-bag policy. Permitted bags are clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC up to 12 by 6 by 12 inches, or a small clutch about the size of your hand. Backpacks, large purses, and non-clear bags are not allowed at the gates. Entry is by mobile ticket only. Policies can vary by event, so confirm the specific event’s rules before you travel.
Gates typically open about two hours before kickoff for Cowboys games, and earlier for premium and club ticket holders. Plan to arrive at least 90 minutes early to allow for parking, the outdoor walk in, and security. There is no direct rail service, so build extra time into both your arrival and your exit, especially for rideshare after the game.
Yes — AT&T Stadium has a retractable roof and is fully climate-controlled, so every seat is covered and the interior stays comfortable no matter the weather. The roof and the giant end-zone doors may be opened for pleasant conditions or closed for heat or cold. The only outdoor exposure is in the parking lots and on the walk in, so plan for Texas heat early in the season.
Yes. AT&T Stadium was a Dallas host venue for the FIFA World Cup 2026, staging nine matches across the group stage and knockout rounds, including a semifinal on July 14, 2026 — one of only two semifinals in the tournament. The climate-controlled roof and 80,000-plus capacity made it one of the tournament’s marquee venues.
