Football Ride

Avoid traffic congestion and parking chaos. Ride the comfortable, climate-controlled AATA shuttle bus.

It's easy, convenient, and fun. Park your car at one of 17 Ann Arbor locations. Then hop on the AATA Football Ride. You'll be delivered, warm and dry, to Michigan Stadium. After the game, the Football Ride takes you back to your car. Just $1.00 each way ($2 round trip) for tickets to ride the Football Ride Shuttle.

The Football Ride runs approximately every 20 minutes beginning two hours before game time with the last shuttles leaving 30 minutes before game time. Shuttles run approximately one hour after the game. Drop-offs and return pick-ups are at Gate 2 at Michigan Stadium along Stadium Boulevard.

Football Ride tickets may be purchased at any of the hotel sites, by mail or in person at AATA's main office:

    2700 S. Industrial Hwy.
    Ann Arbor, MI 48104
