The shiny new Las Vegas Raiders Stadium is ready and as beautiful as promised. Here’s what you need to know

The Allegiant stadium Las Vegas is open and ready for the new season. As season ticket holders we got to explore and enjoy the stadium before it’s open for the new season. My custom lipstick lab is just around the corner from the Las Vegas Raiders Stadium so I got to see it through the entire construction phase over the last couple of years. The Las Vegas Raiders new stadium has so many cool aspects like having the worlds tallest 3D printed statue, the retractable windows overlooking the Vegas strip and the roll-in grass field.

I’ve been waiting to explore the Allegiant stadium ever since we got our PSL‘s* and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s always fun to explore places when they’re shiny and new and not packed full of people. Although, packed out game days are going to be a blast too. The stadium holds 65,000 people so the atmosphere is going to be incredible, especially after 2 years of waiting.

You won’t go hungry or thirsty inside the Raiders new stadium as there’s so many options. What’s cool about the Allegiant Stadium concessions is that there’s a lot of Las Vegas local restaurants like FukuBurger, BBQ Mexicana, Rollin Smoke, Graffiti Bao, and Holsteins. The prices are pretty reasonable for stadium food and drink too.

The bar with the best view is obviously the main bar that’s in front of the Al Davis Memorial torch. From here you can see both the Las Vegas strip and the entire field.

What’s a PSL*?

PSL stands for personal seat license (not pumpkin spice latte which google will bring up as the result). It’s a paid license for a specific seat in a stadium and that entitles the owner the right to buy season tickets for that seat. The PSL holder can sell their seat license if and when they no longer wish to purchase season tickets.

What you need to know before you go to Allegiant Stadium Las Vegas

A few things to know before you go to a Raiders game, event or Allegiant Stadium tour.

Parking

If you’re a season ticket holder Allegiant Stadium offers Raiders season parking passes which are good for Raiders games only. They’re accessed digitally via the official Raiders app (see below).

If you only want a single-game parking pass, they need to be pre-purchased on the SpotHero app. There is the ability to pay for parking when you get there but it’s based on availability so I wouldn’t risk chancing it. There is ADA and accessible parking which requires a valid ADA placard or a valid ADA license plate.

For PSL Holders with oversized vehicles interested in a season RV parking pass, you can email premiumservice@raiders.com.

For Suite and Loge Owners who are arriving by Limosine, you must be pre-approved for to be able to use the drop off lanes by your designated premium service representative.

What to Wear to A Raiders Game

Football games mean representing so dress up and show up since you know everyone else will be. My jacket was custom made for my Nevada State costume at Mrs United States but there’s lots of super cute women’s Raiders apparel, customizable jerseys, Mens Raiders gear and unisex options.

You won’t need sunglasses as although the roof translucent, it’s designed to protect both the players and fans from the summer heat and sun.

Women’s Raiders Apparel

I really like the one piece bathing suit I’d wear as a bodysuit with jean shorts and sneakers. Normally I’m freezing but it’s actually pretty warm in the stadium, so a t-shirt and shorts with a light jacket or tank top with leggings or jeans will be fine for the summer months. I definitely recommend wearing flats as it’s a big stadium to walk around.

Men’s Raiders Clothing

If you don’t have a favorite player, these game jerseys can be customized with whatever name you like.
