As a major US city, Kansas City offers a full range of accommodation to suit all tastes and budgets. The city is uniquely split between two states, and since Kansas City, Missouri is where its central core sits, accommodation tends to be more pricey here than in the suburbs of Kansas City, Kansas.
A variety of food and beverages are available from concessions points around the stadium.
There are 5 primary entrances into the stadium, which all open 90 minutes prior to kick-off (except for the UMB Field Club, which can be accessed 2 hours prior):

Communication boards are available at both First Aid stations on the concourse. These boards can aid engagement between kids, parents, caregivers, stadium associates, and between fans speaking different languages.
Eight hearing-impaired headphone sets are located at Guest Services, which can be found along the main concourse at sections 101 and 132.
Manually operated mobility aids (such as canes and walkers) and wheelchairs – both manually operated and electric – are permitted in all areas of the venue, although electric wheelchairs are only permitted where necessary to accommodate the attendee.

Wheelchairs can be provided when guests request them. Guests can go to the Fan Service kiosks at 101 and 132, as well as the concierge desks within the premium tower. Canes are allowed. Electric wheelchairs are not permitted unless necessary to accommodate an attendee.
