Premium and Reserved Parking

With Premium Lot parking, am I required to use the dedicated Premium Lot entrance on Royals Way (just north of Gate 6)?

No, you may access Premium Lot parking from any gate. However, for those Premium Lot customers accessing the Complex from the west side of Kauffman, we do encourage you to use the Premium Lot entrance on Royals Way¡ªit's designed to provide the quickest access.

Parking for Guests with disabilities

How is the drop-off process for guest with disabilities handled?

The Royals encourage vehicles dropping off a guest to enter the complex through either Gates 3 or 4 and to let the traffic directors know they wish to drop-off a guest. The car will be directed to Gate D and can drop off at the curb. We also have golf carts that are able to pick up passengers and take them closer to the gates.

Has the number of disabled parking spaces changed since the new plan was implemented?

The Royals remain committed to the needs of our guests, especially those who may need a little extra help getting around the ballpark, and exceed the number of disabled parking spaces required by the ADA. In addition, there is an increased number of shuttles available to help transport guests to the Stadium gates, and Royals staff is present at all gates to assist guests.

How can I get assistance from the parking lot to the stadium?

The courtesy golf cart shuttles will operate for each of the Royals 81 home games, shuttling guests needing assistance from the Truman Sports Complex parking lots to the Kauffman Stadium gates. Prior to and during the game, Guest Ambassadors provide shuttle service for guests from the parking lots. Please let your nearest parking attendant know if you are in need of golf cart assistance, or guests may call the Gameday Assistance Hotline (816-504-4040, option #5) once parked. After the event, cart shuttles pick up guests requiring assistance from all Gates (A, B, C, D, and E) to the parking lots. All cart shuttles will drop off on the perimeter of the parking lots. Courtesy cart pick up locations are available at all Gates and will transport guests with disabilities to their vehicles.
