Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Bowers Stadium

620 Bowers Blvd.

Huntsville, TX 77340

Located on the Sam Houston State University campus, Bowers Stadium sits about 70 miles north of Houston, making it an easy day trip from the metro area.

• Parking: On-site parking is available in surrounding university lots. For SHSU football, parking is typically free or included with event tickets — arrive early for the best spaces.
• Public Transit: Limited public transit options are available; SHSU campus shuttles may operate on game days.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are available near the main stadium entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before kickoff. Early arrival helps you find optimal parking in campus lots, breeze through security, and explore pre-game activities before the stands fill. If campus shuttles are running, allow extra time to hop on and off, and consider a short walk to beat shuttle crowds.

Bowers Stadium is an outdoor venue, so be ready for Texas heat and occasional rain. Shade is limited, especially on the east side, so consider west-side seating for coverage and pack sun protection like hats and sunscreen. Keep an eye on the forecast and bring a light rain jacket if showers are likely—umbrellas aren’t permitted.

Expect moderate walking from campus lots to the stadium with some elevation change. Comfortable footwear is your friend, and if you’re meeting friends, set a clear rendezvous point near the main entrances to keep your group together.

Venue Navigation

Bowers Stadium’s traditional horseshoe bowl keeps navigation straightforward. Entrances feed into concourse areas that connect to reserved and general admission sections on both the west and east sides. If you’re heading for suites or club seating, look for signage directing you to the west-side hospitality and press box areas.

You’ll find stadium concessions on the concourse serving classic game-day favorites, along with merchandise stands near main entrances for Bearkats gear. Restrooms are positioned along primary walkways, and ATMs are available near the main concourse. Given the walking and steps typical of a collegiate stadium, comfortable shoes make moving between concessions, restrooms, and your section simpler.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Dress for the weather; afternoon games can be hot, and shade is limited on the east side.
• If sunsets matter to you, choose west-side seating for the best evening views over the field.

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your visit by arriving early to soak up the collegiate atmosphere that makes SHSU game days special. With the stadium embedded in campus, pre-game activities ramp up the energy outside the gates, and early arrival gives you time to settle in, snap photos by the bowl, and find your seats without rushing.

If you’re particular about your view, consult the Bowers Stadium seating chart ahead of time to decide between shaded west-side sections or open east-side seating that puts you in the heart of the crowd. Planning your route from the lot to your gate helps streamline entry, especially if you’re coordinating a larger group.

Chasing golden-hour photos? West-side seating often provides beautiful sunset backdrops over the field. If you’re attending with friends or family, set a group meeting spot by the main entrances or a visible concession stand to avoid game-time confusion once the crowd builds.

Accessibility

Bowers Stadium is ADA-accessible, with dedicated ADA parking near stadium entrances and accessible seating located throughout the venue, including field-level and select reserved sections. Ramps provide access across the bowl, and elevator service is available in press box and suite areas.

Assistive listening devices are available upon request, and mobility shuttles (golf carts) operate from parking lots to stadium entrances on game days to assist guests who need additional support. For assistance choosing accessible seating, contact Ticket Purchase for personalized support before purchasing.

Dining Options

Inside the venue, you’ll find concessions serving hot dogs, burgers, nachos, snacks, and beverages, with occasional local food vendors joining the lineup. Coca-Cola products are served throughout the stadium, and stands are positioned for quick access so you don’t miss a snap.
