Shuttle

Free S11 World Cup Shuttle from K Line stations and LAX

Rideshare

Designated rideshare drop zones on Prairie Ave

Rideshare vehicles use designated drop-off zones on Prairie Avenue and surrounding streets. Post-match surge pricing in Inglewood can be very high. The free shuttle back to a K Line station is strongly recommended.

Walk

Do NOT walk from Downtown Inglewood Station

Downtown Inglewood K Line Station is 1.5 miles from SoFi Stadium with no safe walking route -- the path crosses a highway. Always use the free S11 shuttle.

Rainfall
Minimal. June and July are part of Southern California's dry season. Rain is rare but marine layer (coastal fog) is common in the mornings.

Inglewood gets full afternoon sun with minimal cloud cover. SoFi Stadium has a translucent roof that provides shade from rain but not heat. The open sides mean warm afternoon games can feel hot on lower-tier seats facing west. Sunscreen, water, and light clothing are essential. Evenings cool down quickly after sunset.
