Planning your trip to Lambeau Field – Green Bay, Wisconisin
Where is Lambeau Field located?
Lambeau Field is located in Green Bay, Wisconsin and is one of the most historic venues in all of professional sports. Opening in 1957, Lambeau Field was the first stadium built exclusively for an NFL franchise. Green Bay is located about 2 hours north of Milwaukee.
Attending a game at Lambeau Field and "The Frozen Tundra":
Lambeau Field provides one of the greatest home-field advantages for the Green Bay Packers and yes, it's cold. Temperatures average around freezing, 32 degrees fahrenheit, for most of the NFL regular season. For Packer Backers, this weather is tolerable, but for a visiting fan, especially from a warm-weather city, the sub-zero wind chills and snow can be unbearable.
Where to sit in the stadium:
Attending a Green Bay Packers game for many is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Your Packers tickets are an important part of your Packers Weekend. The stadium's most notable sections to sit in are the endzones where after a touchdown, Packers players do the "Lambeau Leap" up into the first rows of fans.
The most affordable Packers tickets are in the upper rows in the end zones and corners. The most expensive and hard-to-get tickets are on the Lower Sidelines. There are few obstructions at Lambeu Field making for a great fan experience from nearly every seat.
Historic moments at Lambeau Field:
Nicknamed “the frozen tundra” for the “Ice Bowl” which was played in 1967 vs. the Dallas Cowboys, the harsh conditions make Lambeau Field one of the toughest places to play for visiting teams. In 2007, Lambeau Field was voted “best game day atmosphere” on the NFL. In addition, Lambeau Field became the longest occupied stadium in the NFL, passing up Wrigley Field, the longtime home of the Chicago Bears. The Packers continue to be one of the most popular franchises as they have sold out every game at Lambeau Field since 1960, and have almost 80,000 names on their season ticket wait list.
