Arrive 2–3 hours early. Security lines at Kansas City Stadium have been long all tournament; parking lots open well before kickoff.
Drive or pre-book a transfer. The stadium is roughly 35–45 minutes from KCI Airport and 20 minutes from downtown. Rideshare surge after the final whistle is brutal.
Bag policy is strict. Clear bags only — leave backpacks at the hotel.
Hydrate. July in Missouri is hot and humid, and an 8:30 PM kickoff means a long day of tailgating.
