Know Before You Go

Stampede-time Public Transit

With 24-hour CTrain service, extended hours on many bus routes and two Express Stampede bus routes, transit is a great way to get to Stampede Park. Take the Red Line to Erlton Stampede Station or Victoria Park Stampede Station, both of which will bring you right to the action.

Quick tip:

Use Victoria Park Stampede Station for the easiest access to the Scotiabank Saddledome, Cowboys Casino, The Big Four Roadhouse, the Monster Energy Compound, and the southwest entrance of the BMO Convention Centre.

Use the Erlton Stampede Station for the best access to GMC Stadium, the Coca-Cola Stage, Nashville North, and the Dog Bowl Arena.
