How to get to Estadio BBVA for the World Cup

Updated 2026 Stadiums Reader Q&A
Quick answer

The best way to get to Estadio BBVA on match day is public transit. Metrorrey Line 2 reaches the stadium via Sendero station and shuttle. Allow 2–3 hours from your accommodation to your seat to account for security and crowds.

Estadio BBVA hosts up to 53,500 fans on match day — that volume changes how transit, traffic and rideshare behave for several hours before and after kickoff. Planning your route in advance is the difference between a relaxed pre-match and a stressful arrival.

Public transit

Metrorrey Line 2 reaches the stadium via Sendero station and shuttle. Buy fares in advance on the local transit app where possible to avoid queues at machines. Some host cities provide free transit on match day with a valid ticket QR code.

By rideshare

Uber, Lyft and (in Mexico) Didi all operate, but surge pricing is heavy. Drop-offs are at clearly marked zones outside the security perimeter. Pickups can take 20–40 minutes post-match — booking before final whistle locks in lower rates.

By bike or scooter

Many host cities provide bike valet at major venues, including Estadio BBVA. Check the FIFA app's match-day travel section for designated parking. Cycling avoids the worst traffic and is one of the fastest options if you live within a few kilometres.

By car

Parking is limited and expensive (see our parking guide for Estadio BBVA). If you must drive, pre-book a slot and arrive at least 3 hours before kickoff.

Walking distance from major hubs

If you are staying within central Monterrey, Estadio BBVA is typically 20–45 minutes by transit. Walking from the nearest hub to the gate is 5–15 minutes depending on entry assignment.
