What to Expect on Game Day
The Salute to Service game is a celebration of the heroes and first responders who keep our communities safe and strong every single day. Beyond the football, there are two extra reasons to arrive early with the kids.
The Brick Kids Zone
Opens 2 hours before kickoff and is FREE for families. A great way to get the little ones excited before the action starts. Learn more at goelks.com/kidszone.
Pre-Game Flyover
There will be a pre-game flyover as part of the Salute to Service festivities. A genuinely cool moment for kids and grown-ups alike, so make sure you are in your seats before kickoff.
The best way to experience Elks football is being there when it happens. With tickets at these prices, this is one of the most affordable family nights out you will find this summer in Edmonton. Grab select seats for $20 adults and $10 youth, head out early for the Brick Kids Zone, and watch the flyover before the Elks and Redblacks take the field.
Skip the Parking Stress with Park & Ride
Heading to a game with kids means the last thing you want is to be circling for parking. ETS runs dedicated non-stop shuttle service to Commonwealth Stadium for every Elks home game, and for the July 9 game shuttles start at 5 PM (2 hours before kickoff). Drop the car, skip the chaos, and enjoy the ride.
Park & Ride Lots for the July 9 Game
Ticket to Ride
If you buy your game ticket in advance, your Elks ticket is valid fare on LRT, Park & Ride buses, and regular ETS service for 2 hours before the game, during the game, and 2 hours after. No extra transit ticket needed!
You can also take the Capital Line LRT to Stadium Station directly. Multi-car trains run on game days. Note that a residential parking ban is in effect around the stadium from 2 hours before kickoff until the game ends, so Park & Ride really is your smoothest option.
