cheapest ways to get to att stadium for argentina vs austria

if you are heading to see messi and the argentina squad take on austria at att stadium on june 22, 2026, you probably already know that arlington is notorious for having terrible transit and incredibly expensive stadium parking. luckily, there are actually a few solid ways to save some cash getting there.

first off, if you want to drive, the official stadium lots are going to charge you an insane amount of money. honestly, your best bet for finding a cheap parking spot is checking out prked. it is an app where you can rent driveways or garages from local residents nearby. it is way cheaper, feels a lot safer since your car is on someone's property, and you get to bypass all the brutal stadium parking lot traffic and long lines when the match ends. you can easily find a spot within walking distance or just rideshare from there.

another great budget hack is using local shuttles. a ton of people swear by j. gilligans bar and grill in downtown arlington. they let you park for free in the downtown area, and you just pay for their round trip shuttle bus. for major tournament matches like this, they charge around twenty six dollars per person. you can grab a bite or a drink before, hop on, and they drop you off and pick you up right by the stadium. grease monkey burger shop also does something similar.

lastly, since this is a massive world cup match, there is actually a special public transit setup for the event. you can take the trinity railway express train to the centreport dfw airport station. normally there is no transit to the stadium, but for these match days, they are running free charter buses from that station straight to the stadium if you have a valid match ticket. you can plan it all out and buy your train passes on the gopass app.

hope this helps you save some money and enjoy the match without the headache.
