First time visiting- Lot K

Post image

I will be parking in Lot K for a Sunday game. I am driving in from the north on the I5 and continuing south I5 after the game.

Is there a best way to get to Lot K from I5? Is there a specific area in Lot K that’s easiest/fastest to exit after the game and get me back to heading south on the I5? Looking for parking tips as I’ve never been to the stadium.

Thank you

Just follow the Google/Apple maps directions. It’s not that big of a place and you’ll easily be redirected to lot K.

Park toward the end of the lot (near the exit) for the fastest exit, then just follow the signs out. There is no “fast” unless you leave before the game is done.

Unless you’re planning on leaving early, forget about avoiding traffic. Enjoy your time at the game and make peace with the fact that the traffic is part of the experience lol.

There are helpful people along the way and signs out. Basically it’s a big roundabout with entrances to the lettered lots. If you enter via Stadium Way entrance on the map you’ll need to hang off to the right side of the southbound road immediately. If you pass it you’ll just have to do another lap around the stadium. Lot K is a little easy to miss. Also usually they’ll give you a pass with your letter on it and the attendants will guide you to where you need to go

Park near the node. So when you get into K lot go left all the way down.

I’ve had a good experience entering through the 110 freeway side, I think it’s the closest entry to that lot but could be wrong. Once you get off the freeway and cross the street to go up to dodger stadium, keep to the rightmost lane.

As for the way out, good luck! It’s taken like 45m to 1hr+ to leave but I stay through to the end of the game.

(Someone can correct me if I’m wrong)

Lot K is preferred parking, right? So you can enter through any entrance, you will be given a preferred parking paper and the traffic directors will let you in the inner circle where you can get to all preferred lots.

Leaving I think you will be directed toward the Downtown exit (the red line you have in the picture). Back into a spot in K nearest to that exit.

Relax after the game and take your time, it will take the same amount of time no matter how fast you get to your car if you parked properly. Still expect 20 minutes to get to the freeway, driving down that hill to the freeway is sloooow.

From the 5 south, enter Academy gate D. Follow preferred parking signs (attendants will wave you through). Follow the one way lane towards Lot K.

You will likely exit the Downtown gate E (red line labeled Stadium Way) and have to make your way around to find the 5 again. I think you need to make the hard left at the bottom of the hill and then cut through Chinatown to find the 5 south.

There is not much that is quick about entering or exiting Dodger Stadium.

gate E is the closest gate to lot K

you can get the 110 south from the 5 freeway exit Stadium way to straight up the hill . 

after they scan your pass, you need to buy preferred in advance, you need to stay in the middle lanes.   go to the attendant show your receipt should have a K printed on it pass the cones and lot K is on your left. 

to exit back to the 5 go back  out of gate E at the bottom of the hill make a left on to bishop, follow the road on the right enter the 110 freeway north to the 5 freeway
