AT&T Stadium in Arlington is the FIFA World Cup 2026 host venue for the Dallas market. If you're staying in Plano, here's exactly how to get there — and what to expect on match days.
Distance & Drive Time
From Four Points by Sheraton Plano (6624 Communications Pkwy), AT&T Stadium is approximately 34 miles and 35 minutes without traffic. On match days, factor in significantly more time — major events at AT&T Stadium can add 30–60 minutes to travel times across the entire I-30 corridor.
Option 1: Rideshare (Recommended)
Uber and Lyft are the most practical options for most fans. Benefits:
- No parking fees or congestion at the stadium
- Drop-off close to the main entrances
- Can book in advance through both apps
- Flexible on departure timing post-match
Important: On FIFA match days, surge pricing will be significant. Pre-book where possible, or lock in a price before heading toward the stadium. Expect 45–60+ minute ride times on busy match days.
Option 2: Drive & Park
If you prefer to drive, AT&T Stadium has extensive parking surrounding the venue. The recommended route from Plano:
- Head south on the Dallas North Tollway
- Take I-30 West toward Fort Worth
- Exit at AT&T Way or Collins Street in Arlington
- Follow event parking signage to available lots
Allow at least 2 hours before kickoff for travel and parking. Post-match traffic on I-30 can be significant — plan for an extended exit time.
Option 3: DART + TRE Rail
DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) connects to the Trinity Railway Express (TRE), which runs between Dallas and Fort Worth with a stop at CentrePort/DFW Airport — near AT&T Stadium. From Plano:
- Take DART Red or Orange Line south to Dallas
- Transfer to TRE at Union Station
- Exit at CentrePort/DFW (requires shuttle or rideshare for last mile to stadium)
FIFA typically runs enhanced transit for major tournaments — check DART and TRE websites closer to match dates for special event schedules and stadium connector services.
Match Day Tips
- Leave at least 2–3 hours before kickoff regardless of transport method
- Pre-book rideshare when possible — don't try to hail at peak times
- Check AT&T Stadium's official bag policy before arrival (clear bag required)
- The hotel's lobby bar is a great pre-match gathering point before heading out
- Post-match: consider waiting 30–45 minutes at a nearby restaurant before heading back to avoid peak congestion
