Up to 140 private boats moor in Husky Harbor next to the stadium. You can also drop anchor in the bay without a permit. Shuttle boats run from 2 hours before kickoff to 1 hour after the game, $10 per person for the return. No dinghies. Argosy Cruises, Anchor Bay Charters and Waterways Cruises run charters.

Free pregame area at Husky Stadium with entertainment and food trucks, opening 2 hours before kickoff. You need a game ticket to enter, and the stadium has no re-entry.

Getting in

Checked at the source
  • Bag policy: One clear plastic, vinyl or PVC bag up to 12 x 6 x 12 inches or a one-gallon clear resealable bag, plus one small clutch up to 4.5 x 6.5 inches. No backpacks, purses, diaper bags, camera cases or fanny packs.
  • Cashless: Concessions and the Husky Ticket Office take cards only.

After the final whistle

Checked at the source
Link light rail from University of Washington station is the easy way out, but platforms get crowded and you may wait to board after the game. King County Metro adds service after games, with first stops on Montlake Boulevard: Bay 3 for Route 44, Bay 5 for Routes 65, 72 and 75, and Bay 1 for Route 542. Metro staff are on site after every game.

One thing to avoid

From a specialist guide
Don't leave your car overnight: overnight parking is not allowed for Husky football games, and unattended cars face towing.
