On gamedays, North Stadium Drive, South Stadium Drive and West Stadium Drive (next to Tiger Stadium) will be closed to all vehicular traffic.
There are 5 reserved parking zones around the stadium, each including many different parking lots, all of which require visitors to purchase a permit in advance. Some of these have accommodations for particular vehicles:
There are also free parking areas, which fill up quickly on gamedays. For any of these free parking lots, try to arrive before noon for evening kickoffs, especially for conference games:

Ride-shares and taxis are available in Baton Rouge, but watch out for surge pricing during gamedays and remember that the roads closest to the stadium will be inaccessible except to parking permit holders. Visitors who cannot walk comfortably may prefer to take the Touchdown Express shuttle, which can drop passengers off much closer to the stadium.
Although Baton Rouge is the capital of Louisiana, it is much less touristy than the likes of Lafayette and New Orleans, making it much more affordable too. While Downtown is home to some swanky and stylish hotels with high price tags, there’s plenty of mid-range and budget options in and around the centre too.
Visitors may bring 1 factory-sealed, 32-ounce or smaller water bottle into the stadium. Any other outside food and drinks are prohibited, unless they are required for medical reasons, in which case they will be inspected at the entry gates.
There are many concession stands throughout Tiger Stadium, on all concourse levels. Cajun Corner offers local classics like jambalaya, boudin balls, catfish baskets, and alligator sausage po'boys. Just outside the stadium, Beignet Box provides delicious, fresh sugar beignets to rival Café du Monde. Tiger Classics are available on every concourse if you are hungry for hot dogs, cheeseburgers, nachos or pretzels, and well known favourites are supplied by Papa John's Pizza and Chick-fil-A.
Tickets can only be scanned once, so re-entry is not possible.
Most gates open 2 hours before kickoff, but club and suite entrances will be open starting 3 hours before the game.
