Green Bay Packers' Lambeau Field Atrium

Green Bay Packers' Lambeau Field Atrium

I was fortunate to experience a Packers football game on a crisp fall Sunday evening about ten years ago. The green & gold won over the visiting Detroit Lion that night but that was just the icing on the cake. Even with our nosebleed seats, we were at the legendary Lambeau Field, watching Brett Favre and company playing America’s Game. As much as John Madden may gush about Green Bay’s football stadium, I assure you, words and photos cannot do this place justice.

Since that time, they have done a full renovation and facelift, not only on the stadium inside, but also the exterior, creating a real year-round tourist destination here in the small market home that is the Mecca for cheeseheads around the world! It was nice to have the opportunity to make a summertime visit to Lambeau even though we were too late to take part in their stadium tour or the stroll through the Packers’ Hall of Fame. (See note below about knowing when tours are available and buying tickets for tours.)

As you approach the entrance to the five story Lambeau Field Atrium, visitors are greeted bronze sculptures memorializing Packers’ founder Curly Lambeau and legendary coach Vince Lombardi. The Atrium is also home to Curly’s Pub on the second level, a dining option that is open throughout the year and not just during football season, plus the Packer’s Pro Shop for all your Packerwear and souvenir needs.

The stadium tour is generally available seven days a week, with the exception of when the team’s playing at home, when the stadium is as you might expect . . . busy playing NFL host! Tours generally start sometime between 10:00 and 11:00 in the morning and run through late afternoon (4:00 or 5:00). You should check their web site before heading out to make sure you know what their hours are for the day you want to visit: http://www.lambeaufield.com/stadium_info/stadium_tours/times/ . Tickets are $19 if you also want to do the Hall of Fame. Otherwise, it is $11 for adults (ages 12-62) and $10 for seniors (over 62) and $8 for kids under the age of 12. They advise that tours do sell out so plan early; tickets go on sale at 9:00am.

To do the Hall of Fame only, tickets are $10 (adults 12-62), seniors (over 62) are $8 and kids under 12 are $5. If you are attending a afternoon home game, the Hall of Fame is open before the game for game day ticket holders only . . . and they must still purchase an admission ticket. For evening games (7:00pm kick-off) the Hall of Fame is also open to the general public earlier in the day. After 5:00pm, however, only game day ticket holders may purchase admission to the Hall of Fame.
