Take Caltrain or VTA to the stadium
The stadium is in Santa Clara, not SF. From San Francisco, take Caltrain south then VTA light rail, or drive ~45 min. There's no direct BART line to the stadium.
Skip stadium parking on match days
Stadium lots are pricey and gridlocked after matches. Transit or rideshare drop-offs are far less painful — plan the return trip before you arrive.
Stay where the action is, commute to the game
Santa Clara/San Jose hotels are closest to the stadium; SF puts you near the Chase Center and downtown fan zones. Most nightlife and fan zones are in SF and San Jose.
Three airports serve the region
SFO, San Jose (SJC) and Oakland (OAK) all feed the Bay. SJC is closest to the stadium; SFO connects via BART and Caltrain.
