Your Matchday Starts at Arlo Midtown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When global soccer takes over New York City, there\u2019s no better place to be than Arlo Midtown<\/strong>, perfectly positioned by Penn Station with easy access to the NJ Transit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s the best way to get to MetLife Stadium? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Public Transportation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Review the NYNJ Stadium (MetLife Stadiums) most updated rules and guidelines here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

he easiest way for hotel guests to reach MetLife Stadium is by train. NJ TRANSIT is the primary transportation provider for match days and is expected to carry the majority of fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Get to New York Penn Station<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Guests staying in Manhattan can take the subway, walk, or use a rideshare to Penn Station (34th Street). Guests staying elsewhere should make their way to Penn Station first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Take NJ TRANSIT to Secaucus Junction<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Board any NJ TRANSIT train marked for Secaucus (“SEC”). The ride from Penn Station to Secaucus Junction is approximately 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Transfer to the Stadium Shuttle Train<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

At Secaucus Junction, follow signs and staff directions to the Meadowlands Rail Line. Special match-day trains and buses will take fans directly to MetLife Stadium. The ride from Secaucus to the stadium is approximately 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4: Arrive at the Stadium<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The Meadowlands Rail Station is located just steps from MetLife Stadium, making it the most convenient public transportation option.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
