What’s harder to find than a leftover brat at a Wisconsin cookout?
An affordable Lambeau Field parking pass.
The following figures are all you need to see to understand why it’s so difficult to get one:
- 81,441 (number of seats at Lambeau Field)
- 3,000 (vehicle capacity)
And if those numbers don’t do the trick, here’s a visual representation:
To put it another way, even if every vehicle that enters the lot had 10 people, you’d still have 50,000 fans looking for alternative transportation or parking.
To be sure, this is a classic case of supply vs. demand, and boy, is demand kicking butt. In other words, if this was an NFL game, demand would be favored by 17 points.
Parking rates rise around Lambeau Field.
So what??
So, this – a Green Bay Packers parking pass on the secondary market will put a serious dent in your wallet.
That is, the aggregate median price across 12 ticket sites for the cheapest available space is $213.45, prior to the start of the regular season. Namely, that figure is third highest, and while it’s a far cry from New England’s $319, it’s still 82% above average.
Again, $213 represents a low-end listing for a team-sanctioned parking spot. To demonstrate how ridiculous Lambeau Field parking costs can get, let’s examine one ticket site’s prices for the Packers home opener on 9/18/22. (includes service fees):
- Cheapest price – $231
- Average price – $463
- Most expensive – $880
These figures are from a reputable reseller that just happens to have the lowest prices for official parking at Lambeau Field in 2022. In other words, if you think 200 bucks is bad, you could do much, much worse.
By and large, finding reasonably priced parking for Packers games can be polarizing. On the one hand, you have the 3rd-highest median costs. On the other, there are numerous opportunities to save, and save BIG…

Ok… so if you’re considering your options:
You can’t beat free, so get there early!! How early? If you’re not there hours before kickoff, they’ll be gone in a flash.
Residential parking is cheap, so you also need to arrive early. Take into consideration the uncertainty involved, since you can’t reserve a spot.
You can reserve a space at the Resch Center, but those go really fast.
If you need guaranteed parking, you can get it here at spots that are cheaper and just as close as Resch Center. There are also spaces that, while a bit more expensive, is still about half of what most online brokers charge.
