Very nice venue with great seats anywhere you choose! Been here for a few concerts and a couple Lions game (one being in a suite which was an amazing experience in itself!). The stadium packs a lot of people and depending on the event, it can get really busy so get their early! Plenty of parking nearby, but my opinion is to choose somewhere else that isn't a Ford Field lot or garage. They're either full pretty early, especially for tailgaters at a game, or they're simply very expensive. Food and drink throughout the venue is very good. As you can expect, the prices are high but that's the nature of going to an arena/stadium. For a Lions game, they do some fun tents and other activities in the street in front of the arena that faces Comerica Park. read more

Why 4 stars? Because there were some really unique and cool aspects to this stadium. --- --- --- I don't think there are more unique concourses in sports than Ford Field - at least not the stadiums I've been to. They do a really great job at making most of them not feel like you're just in another generic sports venue. The cobblestone streets are probably the leading factor, but there's just a lot going on here that says you're definitely in Ford Field and nowhere else. The negative about the concourses? They are far too small for the sellout crowds the Lions have. I love to walk the entire lower and upper concourse in a new stadium I'm visiting so that I can see everything. Here, this took me the better part of an hour just because I was essentially in rush hour traffic the whole time. Within the actual game itself, it's kind of a nice change of pace that there isn't an emcee screaming in your face about t-shirt tosses and other in-game entertainment during every whistle. That's a thing in live sports these days, but I actually liked the very throw back feel here. The fans knew to be pin-drop quiet durinng the Lions possessions and insanely loud when the defense was on the field. I appreciated that aspect too. Other than the concourses being way too narrow, this was a great place to watch a game. read more

They make you feel welcome as soon as you enter the building. Many restaurant options. Parking is tough. Don't wing it. The parking structure is $60. I suggest parking further away (financial district), taking the people mover to the station closest to Ford Field. read more

Ford Field - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

The Ford Field is a really good venue for concerts, Lions games, of course as well as other event. They have a good setup and lots of jumbo screens for an event. I went here for a large work event with some unveiling of products a few years ago. A lot of run up to the start of the event. I have only been here once for a Lions game. It's intense to be here for a Lions game, the vibe is very different for a game than an event, but I think it's got to be a similar atmosphere as a Lions game. Every time I am in this field, it's got a really nice open air feeling and it never feels stuffy inside at all. read more

It's an okay place to see a football game, I've been here for a couple of bowl games so it wasn't anywhere near sold out. The sound system is hearing damaging loud, so I suggest hearing protection. There's no radio reception and the scoreboard, while very sharp and visible at either endzone, didn't give any useful statistics except once at the end of the second quarter. Security on the way in is slow and poorly organized. They check tickets first, those ushers aren't very helpful, it's a DIY process to get your phone screen scanned by a machine that doesn't readily fit the whole phone screen. Make sure you have your tickets up on the screen just before you get in the door. Then the security scan machines are BEFORE the two security personnel and the one supervisor, so you walk through all your metal in pockets and then set off the machine, go back after putting your phone into the tray being held by one security person, then when the machine goes off again, put the rest of your metal into the tray, walk back through, and then the security person holding the tray awkardly gives you back your belongings one at a time while people behind you glare at you for being a slow old man with a lot of keys. Why not put the one with the tray BEFORE the scanner? On a very serious note, if someone has a gun, you don't want to keep having them walk through the scanner. You want to deny them entry immediately. Not a good system. They did catch my empty plastic bag (it was raining, I wanted it to protect my purple tophat for the walk back to the hotel) and made me discard it. I was walking with a cane that day, they made me hobble back out and through the scanner to make sure it wasn't the cane causing the beeps. Kind of mean, but hey, they are going to get old one day and then they might realize how humiliating it is to treat people who have difficulty walking like that. Concession lines are long at half time, it's a football stadium, they really need to be ready for the surges at the restrooms and concessions in the middle of the game. Seats are a little tight, during Winter when everyone has big coats, it feels even more cramped. I wanted to get a souvenir, maybe a game day shirt or a Lions sweatshirt but the merchandise store isn't in an obvious place near the main entrance, and I couldn't find a worker to direct me at the end of the game when they got real scarce so I decided to get my souvenir at Meijer's Thrifty Acres on the way back. The location is great, right across from Tiger Stadium, there are a number of hotels within an easy walk, and after the game Lafayette Coney Dogs is a 9 minute walk. read more

Ford Field - Lions game - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

I'm a season ticket holder so I've been going to all the Lions games. I've also come here for other events over the years. I like Ford Field, but don't love it. It's a great venue, but it has a few flaws. Since the Lions sell out all the games now, it is a madhouse inside. You can barely move through the concourse to get around. And in a twist, the lines for the men's bathrooms are seriously OUT OF CONTROL. They are sometimes 75 deep, not kidding. That's on the 2nd level, 1st level is better. Not sure if they didn't plan for maximum capacity when they built it, but it is busting at the seams on game day. Food and drinks are of course overpriced, but there are plenty of options. Again, the lines can be pretty bad. So you either just go with it, or eat and drink before you get here. But you're there for 4 hours, so eventually you break down and buy something. I love the 'drink of the game' on gameday, so you know I'm always getting one of those. Getting in has been smoother this year it seems, they move you along pretty quickly with not a lot of waiting outside. Seats are comfortable, I'm in section 240, I'm happy with my view even if it's not a sideline seat or club seats. I couldn't afford them anyways. Parking is a nightmare. You can pre buy your parking on Parkwhiz or take your chances driving around looking for something. NOT recommended. You'll pay more and be farther away. Expect to pay anywhere from $25 - $100 (as you get closer). So - wear good shoes because you'll be walking pretty far. I can't compare to other urban stadiums, but I enjoy coming here for the games. read more

When you think of the motor city, you think Detroit. What a beautiful city. What is equally beautiful is "Ford Field" home of the Detroit Lions. This visit however was like no other. I met so many NFL family's. Let me take it from the top, outside of the stadium I ran into the parent of James Hudson, they were really nice and took photo with us. It was incredible. Outside the stadium there is a lot to do. Games and bars all over. It was worth going early. Inside at our seats I noticed a guy very familiar. May brother walked over and asked was he Joe Ruback. He said yes and we got photos. In case you don't know, he is the second most famous Giants fan. I of course am first, and he mingles with all the team. Next, I saw a gentleman who looked like Abdul Carter's father. So we asked, and yes it was. We got photos with him. This was turning out to be awesome. Last these group of woman sat behind us. It turns out, I was wearing her son's jersey.It turned out to be Brian Burns mom. Once people found out, they rushed for photos so she didn't want to take any more. But I took a photo of her. This was the best day, well, we lost, but it was still great! I really enjoyed "Ford Field." read more

Ford Field - Lions stadium - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Ford Field is such a great place to experience a Lions game. It gets SO loud and the fans are always so excited. I've been there for several Lions games now and most recently for the last preseason game against the Steelers. The atmosphere was just as electric as it is during the regular season. I received an email before the game with arrival time info, which was helpful as we didn't want to miss kickoff. We had time to get food before we got to our seats, but prepare for delays especially if you're driving in the area. (Sidenote: One great thing about Ford Field/Detroit in general on game and event days is that they are so good about directing traffic, which really helps with congestion.) There are lots of options for food and beverages inside Ford Field, and even though it's not as shiny and new as other places, it's still clean and comfortable. I don't think there's really a bad seat in the arena and they offer standing room only tickets that are usually a bit cheaper. I'm so excited for this season - GO LIONS!!!!!!! read more

We came to Ford Field for a college bowl game. There is tons of parking around the field and it's an easy walk from any of them. Getting in was easy and efficient. The stadium itself is beautiful. It's well laid out. Lots of food options at affordable pricing. I really liked the grab and go drink options. That was nice and the self-checkout worked great. Our seats were in the end zone and great. Great views all the way down the field. I really liked the brick area of the stadium that I'm sure is to resemble downtown Detroit. It was pretty and had a lot of great food options that seemed local. I also appreciate that they had vegan and gluten-free options. They were listed on the website too, which made it super easy to find. Overall we had a good experience. read more

Great time at the Lions game tonight! Great seats from StubHub. I appreciated the email from the Lions organization that was sent to me ahead of time, recommending coming early to avoid long wait times. The game stated at 8:15pm. I arrived at 7pm and it was easy breezy. Plenty of entrances and security moves quickly. You'll need to bring a clear bag for your belongings, no larger than 12x6x12. Very nice stadium. It's huge, but every seat seems like a great seat. Lots of fun entertainment in between quarters and time outs. There is such a fun vibe and a lot of energy. Bathrooms are plentiful and clean, and lots of food and beverage options. Many parking options around downtown. Downtown is very walkable so I recommend parking further way to save money and enjoy the walk Go Lions! read more

I groove on down to Ford Field with Nick. We are going to see The Weeknd it will be sick. We go through security and the detectors don't beep. Damone gives us black wristbands they don't feel cheap. Nick gets a fruity alcoholic beverage and I get Coke zero. A hot Latina walks by and I say, "yo quiero" The Weeknds fans are dressed sharply and sexy. Everyone here is so beautiful and no one looks messy. We find our way to section 124, seats 9 and 10. We flop our asses on the seats and feel quite zen. Four beautiful women sit next to us on my left. I introduce myself to Cleo, she has black hair and zest. Nick gets up to go take a wizz and the music's playing loud. The ladies next to me take a selfie and are proud. A black woman with silver hoop earrings sits front of me. I introduce myself. She is from Charlotte and not messy. She's classy with style and has purpose in life. She went into sports and put behind all her strife. Her name is LaShonda but she goes by Shonnie. She came on a plane and smelled like Armani. The Weeknd comes out and the crowd begins to roar. He's wearing a pretty black sparkly garment I haven't seen before. He begins to sing and the lights are dancing blue, red and white. I feel the bass beat in my body and the lights are bright. His production value is the best I've seen in a while. The crowds energy rolls like thunder and flows like the Nile. Starboy comes on and I'm dancing from my soul. I feel connected to the music and I lose control. I'm grooving hard and Nick's recording me. I'm so blessed with what God's awarding me. My face started to go numb and the next song started to play. It was "Can't Feel My Face" and I began to pray. I asked God to bring more music like this my way. I pulled out my phone to capture some of this beauty. I was still singing, dancing and shaking my booty. The crowd is vibing so high and singing their hearts out. I'm waving my other arm to the music and it's groove. If you're looking for a great night out I'd say Ovidio approves. I put my phone away to enjoy the rest of this magical show. The Weeknd moved on the stage with empirical glow. Ford Field is a special place in Detroit's community. I love how the power of music can bring unity. Thank you to all the souls that coordinated this production. It brought love, joy, soul and meaning through its conduction. read more

Seamless game day experience at Ford Field! SUCH a great place for football. My brother and I arrived at about 11:15 for a 1pm game, and had barely a line to get in despite being a sellout game. We perused the lower level, and then made our way down to the field as we had pregame sideline field access. Security for that was super simple since we had passes, and we were able to hang on the field until about 12:30 when we were escorted off. We each got food from a different stall (I got HonCho - it was solid for stadium food), and easily met up and ate at a hightop before heading to our seats. We didn't leave our seats for the entire game and had a ton of fun. The halftime show was awesome, the stadium was pretty clean (even the bathrooms), and the Lions won! read more

Good food a little pricey, but good food. I love the atmosphere and the surroundings and the staff were great fairly clean.

The field is great and now you can use your cellphone while in the stadium. We were at the bowl game this year and had a great time . The food and drink prices are high but they're what you would expect considering it home if the Detroit Lions. read more

Well, another NFL stadium to check off the list. This one in the motor city known as Ford Field in downtown Detroit where the Lions matched up against the Dolphins before Halloween. Say what you want about the team; yes the Lions are lovable losers and fans have pretty much given up hope with all their poor performances, bad coaching, and incompetent front offices. However this new regime led by GM Brad Holmes and HC Dan Campbell are doing what they can to right the ship and it seems to catch on as the fanbase was quite loud, supportive, and enthusiastic about this version of the Lions. And I was impressed with their performance in the 1st half as they got the win..... if the game had ended after the 1st half. 2nd half was more about the Dolphins and their entertaining offense of Tua Fast Tua Furious making a comeback and snatching the win. Ahh, enough about the game recap; the stadium itself. Well it's quite clean, pleasant spacing, and plenty of leg room with the seats (a welcome aspect considering my tightness at Little Caesars Arena). Restrooms were clean for an NFL game, something we take for granted but should appreciate. That's for the men's restrooms; the women's restrooms looked clean as well although I saw a woman come out with her hands held in the air palms down with a disgusted look on her face. Biohazard coming through? (Shrug). Also lots of concessions and drink areas for people to get their grub and thirst on. Beer is priced a bit cheaper than other stadiums which is probably a good thing since the Lions over the years have turned fans into alcoholics. Our seats were Section 128, Row 28; priced around $260 a piece; a hefty price for a hosting team with a losing record (maybe I was inebriated upon purchasing them) but nevertheless, I enjoyed the game day experience with my pops. I wouldn't mind attending a game or event here again; maybe the Lions will be a playoff contender by then. Look out for the Lions, they are on their way up! read more

Who knew sitting at the top looked so good. Thoroughly enjoyed my seat and Lions Game. Section 347 is alright w/me.

As far as large stadium/venues go, Ford Field is pretty great. Not really a bad seat in the house. Plenty of refreshment stands to supply your drinks and eats. In some cases, they have limited selection self checkout lines that move things along pretty quickly. If I were to strike one thing, it would be parking. Unfortunately though, this is due to geographic location and not really the fault of Ford Field. Whereas there is plenty of parking, ALWAYS be prepared for a very slow crawl to get out of downtown Detroit and getting home. You're pretty good once you get out and hit the highway, but up to that point, it's painful. Parking notes - The closer you park the the stadium, the longer it'll take to get away from it. Hit the bathroom before you leave. You will be in the car for a while. So when your significant other says, "I'll just go when I get home", shove them into the nearest bathroom before you leave. Would I go back? Yes. I'm not a Michigan native, but it is convenient and sometimes the only option for a concert or event that I want to go to. It's a nice venue and well kept up. read more

I'm here at the Detroit Supercross 2024 and have a few observations to share. The vibe is always cool. I've been here many times in regular seats and in their suites. People who work the events ways seem to be happy and courteous. Food and drinks are absurdly over priced. Good quality but very expensive. I don't know how families can affotd professional events any more. The layout is easy to find your way around. Signs are everywhere. Seats are the usual baseball stadium style. Cramped even for a small person. Suite seats are the way to go if you're lucky enough to score some. Climate control is decent for motorccyles indoors. Air quality can be a bit smoggy after the bikes have been running a while which could pose issues for anyone sensitive to smoggy air. Sound system is much better than some of the more aged facilities still around. Restrooms are the usual public facilities, needing to be tidied up a bit more because well, let's face it, people are slobs. Parking in the general are is plenty but plan on forking out around $65 or more if you want to park in the closer lots. Use the parking app called Park Whiz which has excellent customer service and a great cancellation policy. Add some time to account for downtown traffic on the side streets in Detroit. Most of all, preare to enjoy the venue and the events at Ford Field! read more

We flew in from NY for the Metallica concert on 11/12. It was my first time in Detroit. This stadium is very nice, clean, well lit, plenty of concessions and bathrooms. We rotated between the 'Snake Pit' and the friends and family room which was housed in the Miller Tap suite on level 5 with a private bar and ample seating. I may be swayed because we got the VIP treatment but I have been to a lot of concerts and stadiums and this one is run well. I liked that you can order drinks via walk through concessions and my slice of Little Cesar's pizza was really good. I would return to this venue for any event. read more

I have only ever been to Ford Field for a football game so my review will be based on this venue as a football arena. Ok, just so we are clear I'm not rating the Lions team themselves or their ability (or inability) to win a game... I'm afraid my rating would be much lower! The area approaching the stadium is safe and clean and tons of fun in game day. Lots of tailgating, music and enthusiasm is in the air. The parking is plentiful and I think the local economy gets a boost because people come down early and hang out afterwards. The one drawback is the line to get in. They do have multiple entry points which is super helpful but the process of electronic tickets and someone who isn't smart phone savvy aren't a good mixture for crowds. Once inside it's clean and the staff are friendly in my experience. There are plenty of bathrooms and they are also clean. Concession stand lines move quickly and the food is average stadium food, one area they could improve on, imo. I've sat in both the lower level and the upper level and don't really think there's a terrible seat in the stadium. I will say concession vendors don't appear to frequent the upper level very much. All in all, it's a fun day. I'd say it's a family friendly venue but do keep in mind that sometimes alcohol and a losing home team don't mix. But I have never really seen it become a problem. And like most Lions fans I still hold out hope that some day we will actually have a winning team.... read more

I don't quite know how/where to review the VIP tailgate party so I'm going to do it here. To be honest I almost hesitate to review it because I don't want it to get too crowded! We have been coming to the Lions games together for many years. We have had season tickets and have jumped around the city experiencing new things before and after the game. Well today I was excited to try the Bullseye entertainment VIP tailgate party. Located in the old pump social building this place is enormous and super fun. I was surprised pump social closed as it was always a go to for us if everyone was too crowded. The tickets were $80 each and $99 if you wanted game tickets. The tickets were for upper level. This included all you can eat and drink!! Like seriously! You can't beat that! Doors open at 10 and you better get out at 1 or they are going to kick you out. Lol. We had an absolute blast! Parking is next door and is $30. Not bad. Ford field is only a few blocks away. They had the darts and pool tables open. No bowling though. There was a dj who played a ton of music that we enjoyed. They had just about everything drink wise. I started the morning off with a mimosa then switched over to apple crown and Vernors. He had jack and diet. I ended up noticing that they had dirty blonde so switched to that or I would be dead by now. Lol. The drinks were all high quality liquor and very generous pours. You can't get shots because people couldn't handle them. So we got shots on the rocks lol. Make sure you bring cash because these bartenders deserve fat tips! The food was set up in two different rooms. There was a huge variety and it was all you can eat. Like seriously! It was amazing. We met some incredible people and we really had an incredible time there. We will likely be back for the last home game of the season and we are hoping that they do this for the Tigers game. I mean what a fun time!!! read more
