For other select events, adjustments to this policy may be in place. Please see the nearest gate event team member for more information.
 

Guests in the Miller Lite MVP Club and Corona Beach Club may leave and re-enter their ticketed locations only when the individual’s ticket is scanned. Suite guests must also obtain a pass to return to the suite floors when visiting the general seating areas. All premium seating guests must present their tickets when re-entering the club or suite level.

Recycling

The EPA has certified MetLife Stadium as the “greenest” NFL stadium. MetLife Stadium encourages all guests to reduce, reuse and recycle. The recycling program at MetLife Stadium includes recycling containers in all parking lots, all security checkpoint locations, as well as along all Stadium concourses and in all premium areas. Please check the signage on the recycling containers to help our guests in recycling the proper items such as plastic, glass and aluminum.  In addition, MetLife Stadium has a robust Parking Lot Recycling Program.  Our tailgate patrol hands out blue bags in the parking lots for fans to deposit their recyclable materials.  While fans are enjoying the event, our team collects the bags, leaving the parking lots clear before fans exit the Stadium.  Please help keep MetLife Stadium beautiful and protect our future!

Reverse ATMs (Automatic Teller Machines)

MetLife Stadium is now a cash-free venue for all concession and retail locations. Cash is not accepted at concession stands or retail locations. For guests who bring cash to the stadium, reverse ATMs are available onsite to load cash onto a prepaid Visa debit card valid for in-stadium purchases. This service is free of charge to guests. The Visa debit card has no expiration date and can be used anywhere a Visa debit card is accepted. Reverse ATMs are located in MetLife West Hall and sections 118, 128, 149, 220a, 245, 322, and 347.

Rideshare

A designated Rideshare Zone is located in Lot E off of West Peripheral Road, right outside of the Verizon Gate. When you request a ride from a rideshare service such as Lyft or Uber at MetLife Stadium, your pickup location will default to a pin in the pickup zone. Once you place your request, head to the Rideshare Zone in Lot E and look out for a call or text from your driver to let you know which row they are parked in. Be advised that rideshare surge pricing is often in effect after the game and larger crowds will result in longer than usual wait times (potentially over an hour wait) for a car to arrive and considerably higher prices than what you paid coming to the Stadium. You may want to consider using mass transit, especially if you are traveling to NYC. Please make sure your phone is charged and ready to go if you’re planning to use one of these services!

Risk

Guests are at their own risk with respect to the dangers incidental to football games and other events whether occurring prior to, during, or after the actual game or event. MetLife Stadium, the teams and our promoters are not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged property.

S

Scalping

Scalping is defined as the resale of tickets for more than 20% over face value or $3 over face value, whichever is greater. Scalping of tickets is not permitted on MetLife Sports Complex or the roadways that service the property. Please report any potential scalping activity to the nearest Safety Services Representative or New Jersey State Police.

Search Procedures

To ensure the highest level of safety and security, all guests will be subject to a courteous screening by Safety Services team members prior to entering the Stadium.   Guests are required to remove all metal objects from their pockets and bags, including cellphones, and place them on the security table. Guests will carry their bag and any other hand-carried items through the metal detector and collect their metal objects once the walk-through scan is complete. 

Additionally, all vehicles are subject to inspection prior to entering the MetLife Sports Complex and all bags will be inspected prior to entering the Stadium. Ticket holders who refuse to allow their vehicles to be inspected will be denied entry into the Sports Complex and those who refuse to be screened or have their bags inspected will be denied entry into the Stadium. By having a ticket, the ticket holder consents to such inspections and waives any and all related claims against MetLife Stadium, the New York Jets and the New York Football Giants. Alcohol, weapons, or any items that the Safety Services team deems dangerous will be confiscated. Illegal items will be turned over to the New Jersey State Police.

Sensory Inclusion

MetLife Stadium has partnered with Kulture City in an effort to provide a more inclusive and comfortable experience for our guests with sensory processing needs. Our team members are trained and certified to recognize opportunities to assist these guests in their enjoyment of our events. There are two sensory pods designed to reduce sensory overload available in the stadium, and we also offer sensory bags containing noise-cancelling headphones, fidget toys and weighted lap pads among other resources for checkout at any Guest Service Booth or Concierge Desk located through the Stadium.
