A close look at the Gameday Tour’s tunnel, press-room and Field Club access, plus the scheduling limits that matter before booking.
A stadium tour on game day has a different promise from a quiet visit: it puts the venue in motion, close to kickoff. The AT&T Stadium Tours Gameday Tour is built around that timing, combining pregame access with a listed postgame field pass, subject to availability.
We reviewed the service information on the stadium’s tour pages. The clearest draw is the sequence of spaces named in the itinerary, but the date matters: the stadium says field and tour locations can change with availability.

The Gameday Tour page does not say whether game admission is included, so confirm whether you need a separate game ticket before booking.
What you need to know
- The Gameday Tour centers on pregame access and a postgame field pass, subject to availability.
- The stadium describes entry three hours before the game, with access to the press conference room and views near the Cowboys and Cheerleaders locker rooms.
- Field access and tour locations remain subject to availability, so confirm what applies to the chosen game date.
- The VIP Guided Tour and Self-Guided Tour are alternatives when a game-day schedule is not the priority.
Gameday Tours puts the game-day timeline at the center
The stadium’s Gameday Tours page frames this as a pre-kickoff visit, not an open-ended stadium wander. Published details on the Gameday Tour itinerary say guests enter three hours before the game. That sets expectations for an experience that fits into an already planned game day rather than replacing it.
The route highlights the players’ tunnel, the postgame press conference room and a pass by the Dallas Cowboys and Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders locker rooms. The site says guests can witness preparations before kickoff. The value is access to the working context around a game, not a promise to enter every room or meet players. The Gameday Tour description names the route highlights. The published Gameday Tour itinerary is the best reference for the listed route.
The headline finish is a postgame field pass; the stadium describes the chance to play on the field, subject to event operations and location availability. That is especially compelling for fans who want more than a seat-side view. The tour page cautions that field and locker-room locations depend on availability.
Before committing, compare the game and date details against the official field and locker-room availability information. A named highlight describes the format; it should not be read as a guarantee for each date.
The pregame and postgame access gives the format its edge
A game-day stadium visit has a different rhythm from a regular guided or self-guided tour. Gameday Tours adds a clear event-day arc: arrive before kickoff, move through areas associated with preparation, then return for the field pass after the game. Visitors are buying a structured window around a Cowboys fixture, with access tied to the stadium’s operating schedule.
That makes it a natural fit for committed fans and visitors already attending the game who are comfortable following a fixed itinerary. If your main interest is the venue itself, the VIP Guided Tour may suit better: the stadium says it has small group sizes and additional stops, with a guide providing facts and figures.
The Self-Guided Tour is the more flexible idea for visitors who want to move at their own pace, though the venue says it is offered on a limited basis. See the current Self-Guided Tour listing when comparing formats. The Gameday format is less flexible by design; its appeal is proximity to the actual pregame atmosphere.
That context matters for mixed-interest groups. Visitors comparing options can revisit the full tour menu before choosing. A fan-first attendee may prize the tunnel and field pass, while a visitor drawn to stadium design or art may value the broader AT&T Stadium Tours menu. We would choose by the main reason for visiting, rather than assuming all tour options cover the same ground.
The tunnel and field access come with schedule limits
- Strength: a pregame route includes the players’ tunnel and press conference room, with a postgame field pass listed by the stadium.
- Strength: the fixed pregame window connects the tour to the live event atmosphere.
- Limit: field and locker-room access depends on availability for the selected date.
- Limit: the tour page directs guests to call to book, so the process is less direct than a self-serve checkout.
The principal caveat is practical: a tour on a game day has a fixed relationship to kickoff, and stadium operations can affect the route. The site states that the experience includes a field pass after the game, while its broader tour information says all locations, including the field, are subject to availability. We would treat this as an itinerary subject to confirmation rather than a guaranteed sequence.
There is also a booking friction point. The stadium’s Gameday page directs visitors to call to arrange the experience, instead of presenting a simple online checkout path on that page. Use the call to confirm the game date, meeting instructions, entry timing and status of the field and locker-room areas with the tour team. The linked tour FAQs can answer general visit questions.
The tour page directs visitors to call to arrange the experience, so ask the team for the current ticket price and terms while confirming a date. The official Gameday Tour page is the right place to start. Before you contact the tour team, keep these planning points together:
- Coordinate the tour window with your game-day arrival plan.
- Ask whether the field pass follows the game and what operational changes could affect it.
- Check whether the VIP Guided Tour or Self-Guided Tour better matches anyone in your party who is not focused on football access.
Useful questions to settle before booking include:
- Does the selected game date have Gameday Tour availability?
- Which listed route areas are available that day, especially the field and locker-room locations?
- When and where should guests arrive, and what does the postgame field-pass timing require?
- Does each visitor need a separate tour booking alongside any game admission?
The stadium’s tour FAQ and ticket terms are sensible reference points for general visit and booking policies. For a group, the venue lists separate Group Tours information, which is worth checking rather than assuming the public game-day format will accommodate a large party.
Is the Gameday Tour right for your Cowboys visit?
For fans who already plan to attend a Cowboys game and want access around kickoff, Gameday Tours is a focused game-day option in the lineup. Its tunnel, press-room and postgame field elements give the visit a clear purpose. Our recommendation is to shortlist it when game-day access is the goal, then confirm date-specific locations and the booking process directly with the stadium.
The honest limitation is that the signature field and locker-room access can depend on availability, and booking requires a call according to the tour page. Review the Gameday Tour page before planning around a particular stop. Visitors seeking a calmer, flexible look at the building should compare the VIP Guided Tour or Self-Guided Tour instead. Check the official listing before planning around any single stop.
