Taking the Trolley to Qualcomm Stadium
The San Diego Trolley Green Line provides regularly scheduled service to Qualcomm Stadium every day from approximately 5:00 a.m. to midnight. Trolleys depart most stations every 15 minutes. Special service will be offered on Game Day with enhanced frequency over a greater service area. The Qualcomm Stadium Trolley Station is located in Section J of the parking lot, just steps away from Gate K. (Looking for Holiday Bowl Information?)
TIP: Purchase $5 Day Passes at any Trolley Station ticket machine. Select stations will also offer ticket booth sales on game day. Or use your Monthly Pass. View regular Trolley map and schedules. See more Game Day Rider Tips
Special Game Day Service:
Beginning at approximately 12:45 p.m., special enhanced Green Line service will operate between the Convention Center area and Santee, operating through Old Town, Mission Valley, and Qualcomm Stadium. Trains will depart every 15-minutes from the Convention Center area, and every 8 minutes from Old Town via Mission Valley to the stadium, and every 8 minutes from San Diego State University to the stadium until game time.
Fans can also take the Blue Line from South Bay or downtown to Old Town and transfer to a Green Line train or stadium shuttle train.
Leaving the Stadium
Expanded Green Line service to the Convention Center area will continue throughout the game until at least 10:10 p.m. from the stadium. The last train toward Santee will depart the stadium at 10:44 p.m. and the last train to SDSU will depart at 12:14 a.m.

- Travel early: Allow extra time as Trolleys will be crowded at times. At some of the more popular locations closer to the stadium, trains may arrive that are already full. Rest assured that the trains will continue to operate as often as possible providing service to all of our customers.
- Purchase a Day Pass: At the ticket kiosks or Ticket Vending Machines, purchase your Day Pass to avoid ticket lines after the game.
- Accessible Entrance Located at the Jack Murphy Statue: This will allow direct access to the station elevator and ramp ways to the boarding platforms. Passengers requiring an accessible path and their parties should use this entrance regardless of direction of travel.
- Avoid Attempting to Bypass the Line by Walking to the Next Station: Although the line may appear daunting, please be patient and allow us to move all passengers in as timely a manner as possible. Passengers choosing to walk to the Mission San Diego or Fenton Parkway stations will find that station access will be metered allowing only a limited number of passengers to enter at a time. If you must avoid the rush, please consider departing the game a little early or waiting for a while after the game to enter the line.
