The NFL is already setting up the NFL Experience on the west side of the University of Phoenix Stadium. It has been amazing to watch it come together everyday. (Above is a picture of the NFL Experience I took yesterday.) Read more about the NFL Experience here.
The interactive park will cover nearly 850,000 square feet. It opens Saturday, Jan. 26, runs Jan. 27, goes quiet Jan. 28 and 29, is open half a day for an invitation-only children’s half day Jan. 30, and reopens to the general public Jan. 31-Feb. 2. On game day, Feb. 3, it’s open to Super Bowl XLII ticket holders only.
Admission is $17.50 for adults and $12.50 for ages 12 and younger. They can be purchased by calling (866) TIX-4NFL or online at www.superbowl.com. The stadium is located east of Loop 101 at Maryland Avenue in Glendale.
Parking will be available to the north of the stadium at Westgate City Center and will cost $10 for regular passenger vehicles.
