Wave FC “A-Z Guide”

Need a lift from the parking lot to the stadium? 

Snapdragon’s shuttle can take approximately 15 minutes to navigate the lot. If you attend an event, you can always use the stadium’s shuttle service. Text the shuttle text line at 619-393-5705 or call Unified Command (only active during events) at 619-564-7911.

Please provide an accurate location and description when texting to request a shuttle. Please note that using the text line does not guarantee faster service, as it usually depends on demand. (Shuttle Route Map above).

You can also park or meet at the Sirens Tailgate in the Yellow Lot and ask for a Sirens Officer (identifiable by name tags) to arrange on-site transportation.
