What we know about Bill Snyder Family Stadium

Where visiting fans stay

From a specialist guide
  • Aggieville and downtown Manhattan. Drive or rideshare. Stay near the bars; Aggieville is the town's nightlife district next to campus.
  • Topeka. Drive, about 50 miles. A fallback when Manhattan rooms are gone.

Around the stadium

From a specialist guide
Aggieville, six blocks of bars and restaurants by campus and the oldest shopping district in Kansas, is the place before and after the game. It sits south of the stadium, a drive or long walk away.

Getting in from the airport

From a specialist guide
Kansas City (MCI) is the nearest big airport. Drive I-70 west; Manhattan sits about 9 miles north of the interstate and 50 miles past Topeka.

Getting to the stadium

Checked at the source
Drive and park to East and west stadium lots (permit only).

Tailgating

Checked at the source
The east and west stadium lots open 5 hours before kickoff and are the main tailgate. They are for Ahearn Fund members with a permit on display. The North and South Goss Family Tailgate Terraces on the west side are open to every ticket holder from 2 hours before kickoff to the end of the third quarter, selling food, beer, wine and margaritas. The southeast corner of the stadium opens to all fans 2 hours before kickoff, with food, beer, wine and margaritas. K-State lists premium tailgate packages through REVELxp and Tailgate Guys on its game-day page. K-State asks its fans to treat visitors with courtesy and respect, and enforces it.

  • Cashless: Fully cashless: tickets, concessions, parking and the Rally House stores take cards only.

After the final whistle
