Why hourly service fits BMO Stadium
BMO Stadium is the home of LAFC and a regular stop for concerts, set inside Exposition Park a short walk from the Expo Park/USC Metro station. Match days and show nights bring heavy traffic on Figueroa Street, limited on-site parking and a crowd that leaves together. For matches and stadium concerts, hourly service of typically 5 to 8 hours is strongly recommended over a one-way pickup, because a timed pickup is easy to miss once the gates empty. With hourly service the chauffeur and vehicle stay with you from the first pickup to your door.
Official rideshare drop-off and pickup
BMO Stadium's Getting Here page places a designated rideshare pickup and drop-off location at the corner of Figueroa Street and MLK Jr. Boulevard, entered via Figueroa Street, and tells riders to meet their vehicle at the top of the designated area. Recent event pages describe the same area as Green Lot, right outside the Southeast BMO Gates from the Figueroa Street entrance, and LAFC's matchday guide also places the rideshare lot right outside the Southeast Entrance.
The exact spot can move from one event to the next, so the stadium points guests to the Parking and Transportation section of each event page. The stadium does not publish a separate rule for limousines or chauffeured cars, so plan for your chauffeur to use the rideshare area unless the vehicle holds a parking pass. Agree before the match whether you will meet at the top of the rideshare area or at another point your chauffeur suggests.
Timing your arrival
LAFC strongly recommends arriving at the stadium two hours before kickoff, and warns that arriving 30 minutes early means heavy traffic on Figueroa and a scramble for parking. For concerts, each event page lists parking, door and start times, and recent pages have asked guests to arrive early to speed up entry. BMO Stadium has a clear bag policy, so plan what you carry before you leave the car, since non-clear bags, including small clutches, are not allowed.
- One clear bag up to 12 by 6 by 12 inches, or a one-gallon clear storage bag
- Non-clear bags, including small clutches, are not allowed
- Check your event page for the current rideshare lot
- Share the chauffeur's details and tracking link with your group
After the final whistle or encore
When a match or concert ends, the Southeast gates and the Figueroa Street side of Exposition Park fill at once with fans heading to the rideshare area, the general lots and the Metro. With hourly service your chauffeur holds nearby and comes to the meeting point when you are walking out, rather than queuing on Figueroa during the busiest minutes. Message your chauffeur as you leave your seat, say which gate you are using, and follow the live tracking link to the vehicle.
Parking and transit around Exposition Park
Stadium parking includes the Gold Lot and the Expo Park general lots, entered via 39th Street and Figueroa or MLK Jr. Boulevard and Hoover Street, and the stadium recommends buying a parking pass before you arrive. LAFC sells passes for its north and southwest lots, and they often sell out before matchday. The Metro E Line stops at Expo Park/USC, about a 10-minute walk, and the J Line stops at 37th St/USC. A chauffeur removes the parking question entirely and keeps your group together after the match.
Vehicles for supporter groups
A Comfort Sedan or Executive Sedan carries up to 3 passengers, which suits a couple or two friends. A Luxury SUV carries up to 7 passengers and the Escalade Elite up to 6, a good fit for a family with season tickets. For a supporter group or a company outing, the Mercedes Sprinter Van carries up to 16 passengers, so everyone arrives and leaves together from one meeting point. Capacities are maximums, and an equivalent vehicle may be substituted for the class shown.
Coming from LAX, Santa Monica or Downtown
BMO Stadium is about 15 miles from LAX via I-105 and I-110, typically 25 to 60 minutes depending on traffic, so visitors can be met at LAX and taken to a hotel first. From Downtown Los Angeles the stadium is about 5 miles via I-110, usually 10 to 25 minutes, and from Santa Monica about 15 miles, mostly on I-10, usually 25 to 60 minutes depending on traffic. For a hotel downtown, our LAX to Downtown LA route covers the first leg, and Crypto.com Arena is a short drive north.
